good news!

looks like i fixed it (all by myself :-) )...i just tried and it was pretty easy...just remove the wlf, unscrew the 4 screws of the upper "frame" (not sure if thats the correct term)...then u can remove the screws of the "clips" (2 left, 2 right) and then the small plates where the screen lies...i put some small stripes of paper there till the screen showed infinity at infinity on the lens...now imgonna shoot a roll of test film to see if it works correct!

cheers

stefan

@len: no...impossible...the screen fits only in one way...

cheers

stefan

@david: thx 4 your answer...to make it shore...i do not have the original screen or the chance to get another lens at the moment :-(

but i really dont think, that its the lens as it seems to work perfect ... the pictures are sharp, the only problem is, that the focus is a little bit in front...

i did already remove the screen and put it back in...thats not the problem...

i guess i will have to look for an original screen...

cheers

hello all!

<p>yesterday i finally got my bronica sq-b...everything is fine and im

happy with the camera...<br>

but on the first test film i noticed, that i can focus past

infinity...so i did some test shots to see if the screen is right in

place...unfortunately it is NOT :-(<br>

you can see one of the test pictures here: <a href="http://www.

lachinger.com/temp/fokus.jpg" target="_blank">fokus.jpg</a> (distance

to the middle of the newspaper was about 0,75 meter, shot at f2,8,

focussed on the little "cross" u can see in the middle)...so

the camera has a little frontfocus...</p>

<p>my question: anyone knows how to adjust the screen by myself (i

dont want to screw around without any plan what im doin....)? which

screws let me raise or lower the screen?</p>

<p>another question: the screen installed is with grid lines,

microprism and 45° split image...so i guess its NOT the original

one ...is it possible, that THIS is the reason for the wrong focussing

(i guess not, but its possible)?...i really like the screen (its

bright and the 45° split is great)...</p>

<p>any help is appreciated!</p>

<p>sorry 4 my bad english (im out of practice)</p>

<p> </p>

<p>cheers</p>

u can repair the shutter squeak yourself. all u need is a needle and a little bit of oil...u can see a good description at: http://www.aldo-net.com/Canon/ unfortunatly (4 u...good 4 me) its in german, but maybe it helps...i fixed my a1 in 15 minutes at a cost of about 0,50 euros shutter sounds like new :-)
