jedrum Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Some of my aperture setting labels are missing. Is there a company that can replace them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCL Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Probably not as this is a quite old camera. You should be able to print them out on paper which has a sticky back, like mailing label stock, and pressure attach them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedrum Posted January 17, 2023 Author Share Posted January 17, 2023 The other thing I see on my Ricohflex is the aperture settings are reversed. f/22 is on the left looking as you would to shoot. f/3.5 is to the right. Has anyone else seen this? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCL Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Here's a link to Mike Eckman's site with pictures and descriptive text. As you can see in the photos, the aperture settings when viewed from the top run in increasing increments (smaller apertures) from left to right. That is how it appears on my Diacord as well. I suggest you get a copy of the user manual at www.butkus.org (free but he would like a $2-3 donation) and familiarize yourself with the particulars of your camera and its usage before shooting another roll. https://mikeeckman.com/2019/10/ricoh-diacord-l-1957/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCL Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 According to several sources the Dia L and Diacord L sre the same camera - the Diacord L is the export version whereas Dia L is the domestic (Japan) version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
