Seriously, some shops have parts on hand from old equipment. You might check
around.
Other than that, tapping the screwdriver handle with a plastic mallet will
sometimes help loosen them. Get someone to support the lens. Then while holding
the screwdriver in the screws slot, smack the driver's
I tried to disassemble a fungus infected F35-70 for fun. I couldn't
find JIS screwdrivers, instead I used PH000 and PH00 drivers from an
electronics shop. They fit ok. You need to apply a lot of pressure!
