I'll send them both up. The 2800 has a tiltable head, and the T20 will charge but not fire. Yoko, will send the X700 up to you.

Great thanks

OK Kenzie, thanks. I'll have a look at it. If you could put a spare capacitor in, I can try that.
There must be something with M42 lenses. The Chinon 35 aperture blades are oily and there's a yellow oil blob on the back lens about the size of the f22 aperture and I can't get the thing open.

Screws on around the mount? Will try and find some screws for the X700 base.

You don't happen to have lots of tiny screws lying around, do you? I need one for the RC 35 battery trigger. The old one was corroded and sheared
With the lens, I don't know whether it's best to go in from the mount end or the front. I can get the first element off but the second seems to be on really tight. Lens spanner has slipped a couple of times and I don't want to scratch the lens.

I have loads of little screws kicking around, depends on what you want. If not, I will send a load up if I can find them!

Ooh, thanks! I'll measure up later.

Hmm looking at 6x9 folders, am currently scratching my head between a Voigtlander Bessa with Skopar lens, pre-war and uncoated, or a Ross 820 with Xpres lens and Epsilon shutter, which apparently are not very reliable, but a good lens and probably 1950s instead of 1930s. Any thoughts?

Kenzie · 30-03-17, 12:19 PM

I quite like my Bessa, can't remember what lens it has though. I have the option of half frame as well because I have the mask as well. Not too heavy either. Not heard of the other one though.
