erik_danielsson Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 A friend of mine is trying to disassemble a Zeiss Super Ikonta 533/16 BX, the goal is to clean the viewfinder from inside. For some reason he can't get the top lid off, even though all visible screws are taken out. The left side of the top (seen from behind to front) is moving a bit, but right side is really stuck. Any ideas? Anyone here who has tried to clean and disassemble one of these? Really great medium format rangefinder if you ask me. Se attached images.

kmac Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Any success? Remove the flash shoe and see if there is a screw under it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erik_danielsson Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 Any success? Remove the flash shoe and see if there is a screw under it HI! Yes, some progress. We found out that there is a ”hidden” screw that is reached from inside of the camera body. See image on flickr here: ZEISS IKON SUPER IKONTA BX 533/16 However, my friend has had to much to do lately so we haven't got around to actually fix the camera yet.
