<p>certo6.com would be a place to start, I don't know if he would have the rollers though. He is the master of old folders.</p>

<p>All 531A's are supers "coupled rangefinders" .</p>
-
<p>I just picked up a Ikonta 531A with a Jena Tessar.</p>
-
<p>I have quite a few Konicas but not a C35,I would enjoy any one of the ones left.Thanks jrrog@geneseo.net</p>
-
<p>Might not fit the Classic manual forum but Sunday"the last Sunday in April" is World Pinhole Camera day so I have two 4x5's and a 120 format loaded and ready to go.</p>

<p> Check out Jurgen kreckel at http://www.certo6.com/,he should have what you need at a fair price.</p>

<p>I shot a roll of Efke R25 though my Zeiss Super Ikonta 531A.We had a Lot of snow the last two days and went out to snap some shots and try out the efke.The infinity focus seem off just a bit on the Zeiss.<img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5245/5291366245_f876272741_m.jpg" alt="" width="182" height="240" /><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5128/5291366263_1b276630be_m.jpg" alt="" width="177" height="240" /></p>

<p>They changed there address to <strong>gweber@webercamera.com </strong></p>
-
<p>Just a thought but did someone set the self timer and it is stuck?It happens pretty often to these older cameras.</p>
-
<p>I discovered after several minutes that I had to pull the winding knob up about a 1/2 inch to disengage the gears.It then allowed it to be rewound freely.I pushed and pulled on every thing before I discovered it.Again THANK YOU for the time you took to translate the guide and manual.</p>
-
<p>Than you for translating the guide Ernest.I am just getting the hang of using the Weltix,something I have not seen before in double expose control.I have to push a button down on the top of the camera[between shutter and film advance knob]before I can wind the film,also need film in camera for it to work.It has a Cassar 50mm f2.9 lens in a Compur shutter.For seventy years old speeds seem right on,even the slower ones.I almost forgot the view finder has a lever that when moved it pops up about a 1/4 inch,for parallax correction I guess.High teck for back then.Again thanks,if you find any thing strange in the manual post it here.</p>
-
<p>I just posted the Weltix manual in the gallery under the name Weltix,also put the photo guide I posted here.It looks bigger and easier to read</p>
-
<p>The wheel on the right turns I should have added.That is a metal rivet in the middle.</p>
-
<p>I bought a Welta Wiltix a year ago online and finely got it out yesterday to run some film from it.I am not writing about the camera though,it came in the original box and had the user manual and a strange chart type with it in the box.I do not read German but I can tell some of it is about months,like certain months have different light readings.I have never heard of that before,Anyway if anyone can read it I will post it here. <br>

<p>If you want Konica worked on you want Greg Weber to do it,Jurgen is a master of old Folders.I had a Konica FT1 redone that the electronics had died on.He replaced the circuit board and fine tuned it to like new.You can rach him here http://www.webercamera.com/.</p>
-
<p>I use a non hardener fixer and want to try Efke film that calls for a hardener.I have a bottle of Kodak rapid fix part B,and wonder if anyone could help me on how to dilute this for use?I use Photographers Formulary TF4.Is there a way to use it as a stop bath as I use water now?</p>
-
<p><strong>A voigtlander VitoIIa just went for $219.I happen to have one and it is my favorite carry around camera,but I have $100 in it and that is after a CLR at my local camera shop.Fits nicely in your pocket and the color skopar lens is great,but not at that price.<br /> </strong></p>

<p>Thanks for all the replys.Since my first post and after the helpfull advice here I have a TN3 on it's way to my house.I will run a roll of film through it on manual to see if it needs to go in for a CLA. Can anyone tell me what the best battery replacement would be? Anyone use the MR-9 adapter?Since you need two it is a little costly,does it really work/and last?</p>
-
<p>I have five Konica Hexanon lens's in Ex+ shape that were for FS-1,FT-1 cameras.Will they fit any other Konica models?</p>
-
<p>I also have the Moskva2 and thought the threads were striped when I tried to attach a cable release until I read Kozma's post.Do they take a special cable/thread?</p>
-
<p>Reading this I dusted off my Moscow2 and it has screw in filters.I got two off the "Bay" last year from a seller by the name of mvloon,he is out of the Netherlands and I have bought from him many times.You could email him to see if he could help.</p>
