  1. Hello All Well I got the helicoid free and smooth I reinstalled the lens assy and locked up. So looks like the focus on the lens is locked also, Can I soak the entire assy in alcohol? Or any other suggestions short of taking apart? Thanks Don
  2. Latest update I used a heat gun, like a hair dryer, and that freed it up. That was earlier today, I just went out and it is tightening up again. I will try some lube when it gets here. Thanks Don
  3. Hello Thanks Again, I have removed the lens group so no problem with the naptha migrating into the lens. I am having no luck with getting it to free up so I reread so old threads and have ordered a couple of chems that are suppose to help free it up and relube the unit. If there are any other suggestions I would appreciate it. thanks Don
  4. Hello Thanks for all the advice, this does have the helocoid focus behind the shutter? I have some lighter fluid I will try that first and let it soak for a while Don
  5. Thanks Chuck I have it sitting in the HOT California sun right now to see if that frees it up. If it does free up do I take the rear element out to remove the lens unit Thanks Don
  6. Hello I have been trying to find a video on repairing the stuck focus on the camera with no luck, tried youtube and here. anyone know of a video or step by step to removing and repairing the focus. Thanks Don BTW the camera, other than the focus issue, is in perfect condition
  7. Hello Here is the lens Te flash washed out the lens it is very good condition Thanks Don
  8. Thank You both I figured a slow film as that is what was available back then. The Manual did mention something about the ASA that I glossed over until I was ready to shoot. Thanks again Don
  9. Hello I found the above camera in original box with directions and was wondering what speed film would be best to use due to the two speed shutter Thanks for any advice Don
  10. Hello All I recently received the above camera that is in excellent condition except that the take up film spool carrier is missing and I think one of the little posts is missing as well. If any one has this part or parts or knows of a place I can get them I would appreciate it. Thanks Don
  11. Hello Thanks, I did find the 58mm 1.2 on the bay, I was searching with the X and none came up The SRT202 and the three lenses cost me 150.00 so the 58mm is about twice that so got a good deal. Thanks Don
  12. Hello All Question more on the lenses or the one lens I can not find anything on the "bay" about, the camera is in pristine condition as are the lenses It came with a Rokkor-X 50mm 1.7 and a Rokkor 100mm 2.5 and the one I need info on is a Rokkor-X 58mm 1.2 I know the 1.2 lenses are more expensive but since I can't find it is it rare as well Thanks Don
  13. Hello Joe I do use a Patterson tank. I am going to try the kit on another roll and see what happens. Don
  14. Hello Joe Is that prerinse and is it 120? Maybe its Ilford films I am seeing it with? Don
  15. Not really sure how you could leave backing paper with the film and install on reel? I have had prerinse come out black or dark when doing BW film, I have found this on different films, no one else? Thanks Don
