Spelling mistake? You had me worried for a minute. I thought you meant my post.
So many spelling mistakes and examples of awful English on ebay. Lense is starting to annoy me.

Cool! Send it over if you have any trouble. I really want to set the Konica focus up but am off to Silverstone tomorrow soother things to do. Have found out how I think, so will see if it bears out.

Scanned the pics in but messed up the focus on a few of them. Did you ever manage to fix the Contina I sent you?

No, the viewfinder front lens is missing, and the shutter is mainly working but there is something going on with the VXM switch, it gets stuck on V. There were a couple of bits of the escapement including a follower that were bent, then broke off while I was trying it out. So not great, but mostly there.

Might have a Prontor LK escapement somewhere if it would help?

I think it's too far gone to be honest

Contina arrived today. Laced with fungus. Will try and clean it but may need the lenses from the Contina I sent you Johnny.
