Re: Vintage film cameras
Nope. That lens is not coming out. Spanner has slipped a few times and I don't want to wreck the spanner holes or the bezel thread. The only thing i can think of is to cut round it with a dremmel if I really want to get it off. Then solder the join when replacing.
I think I'll leave it for now, which is a shame because I wanted to clean out the top and remove the shutter box to clean that up. It's the second shutter roller that's sticking, meaning the 2nd curtain is either too slow or doesn't complete travel at lower speeds. Probably dried up old lubricant so I think I'll try some lighter fuel through the bottom of the roller, see if that loosens things up.
