Default Re: Vintage film cameras

Got the job lot through today. The RC I think has a faulty meter but worse than that the lens is hazy. The Trip has sticky aperture blades so l stripped it down but the rear element is either hazy or has seperation. Oddly enough the only one I have been able to revive is the EE2. It had a constant red flag issue and the lens barrel was loose so I stripped it down and found two screws missing from the barrel mount. I found said screws stuck to the magnet in the light meter! Everything is back together and seems to be working. On a side note I got a junker Kiev 4, the shutter is borked but the RF works. On mine the shutter works but the RF doesn't. Not sure if it's a simple swap but a project for another dsy. I also got a Polaroid SX70 model 2, it needs a new skin but the previous owner says it works.
