Default Re: Vintage film cameras

I've been working on the Bessa, it has a Compur Rapid shutter, so really all you need is one not-very-small screwdriver. Al fine but now it's back together it's sticking at slow speeds. Might be the adjustment of the escapement, the hairspring tension, or that it hasn't got enough oil. Will have to have another look tomorrow. Also looked at the other Contessamat, the flash sync isn't firing, wire is connected to the hot shoe. Lenses need a clean but otherwise it works. Grrr.
