<p>I going to redo the leather it's starting to fall apart, on ebay their's a seller in China making<br> replacement leather for the 3.5E. Today I cleaned the shutter and aperture blades and so far<br> it's working good till a CLA.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> Well I got my rolleiflex from the bay today and it's in pretty good shape,<br> glass is pretty clean the body is in nice shape, the back has it's share of <br> nicks and bangs, so here's the question if I need a back for it can I get a <br> back from a MX or other camera or do I have to stay with a 3.5e back?</p> <p>Thanks <br> Clark</p>

<p>There's a type I, a type II that for the 3.5 and a type III for the 2.8 models.</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I was surfing the bay again and this week and I had to get what seems is<br> a great condition 3.5E with a planer 3.5 lens. I have to confess the back in the <br> 90's I had a 3.5f whiteface which I sold and after that regret, so I pick this guy <br> up. The only thing is the latch has a problem and doesn't work and will not close <br> so I should get it next week. Anyway I want to get a type II hood for it and I see <br> there's a few difference's so which one to get is the question?</p> <p>Thanks <br> Clark </p>

<p>Hi Charles<br> This camera (the 6003) has so much more wiring and other stuff going on with it <br> I'm not surprise, the 6008 intergal is a lot better made inside less wiring and more <br> plug's into board's. I'm also trying to get a new motor from the original company <br> I'll see how that makes out.</p> <p>Clark </p>

<p>It doesn't do anything, it's really (Like bones say's to Capt. Kirk it's Dead Jim) I don't know <br> what happen but thank you for the reply.</p> <p>Clark</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I received a 6003 SRC 1000 for a great price and it was working great except <br> for the flap behind the mirror, so I took off the side of the camera where the ISO <br> dial is and clean and lubed it, I then did something that I should not of did I put <br> the battery back in with the circuit board still outside the camera it worked the<br> mirror and flap went up but thats it all dead now. the fuse doesn't blow it just<br> does not turn on, I did manage to get the mirror down I just turned the gears<br> to make the mirror and flap come down, otherwise that's it nothing. Is there<br> a reset inside or another thing I could do or is it a loss cause.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Update; Found a working 6003 camera body for a great price on ebay (again), might be good for <br> parts toward the 6008.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Okay Here's hoping it works, if not I might have to find another 6008 body someplace and switch<br> the parts out.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Thanks Ferdi it worked out great, I was able to clean it all out, relube it and it seems to work better, <br> I still have to get a battery for it and there's one more thing I don't know about it's the mirror its in the <br> up position I hope it does not mean that the mirror electronic's are shot here's hoping.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I received a Rollei 6008 intergal today and I started to work on it but ran into <br> a bit of a problem, I can't remove the panel on the side of the camera that has the <br> shutter dial on it. Does anyone know how to remove the shutter dial or is it another <br> part that needs to be removed first, there seems to be a problem with the bearings and <br> or contact's that has to be adjusted. Any help would be great.</p> <p>Thanks </p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I've been bad, I been surfing eBay and looking for accessories for my 6002 I happen upon a complete <br> 6008 intergal, the only thing the seller who had it did not know if it worked or not because he had no <br> battery or charger so I purchased it. The price was great looks in nice condition and heard they are still<br> repairable so that a good thing plus I'm pretty handy so I might give it a shot myself, It's coming today<br> the seller is here in the States so one day delivery.</p> <p>Clark </p>

<p>Thank you all for your responses, this is great.</p>

<p>Hi Joseph, <br> I have no problem doing DYI, but I need a place you could recommend to build the packs <br> for me.<br> Clark</p>

<p>Hi all, <br> I purchased this charger for a great price on ebay and was wondering if you guy's or gals <br> have any great tips on using it. It seems pretty well built and I did plug it in and it lite up<br> with a beep!<br> Thanks <br> Clark</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I have the above lens which I truly love on my K5II camera, here's the thing <br> it works great but when I slip the clutch focusing ring to manual I can't manually<br> focus the lens unless I turn the switch on the body first, taken off the focusing<br> rubber ring it seems to have lost one of the screws to hold what looks like a<br> bar in place which in turn goes back and forth to release the focusing, would<br> anybody have a screw for that.<br> Thanks </p>

<p>Hi Floyd,<br> Thanks for getting back to me and filling me in on what works or not with the Rollei.</p> <p>Clark</p>

<p>Hi all,<br> I'm new to this thread, but been hovering a bit here and there. So after reading a few threads <br> on the Rolleiflex 6000 series cameras I purchased on a nice (I hope) 6002 camera and Charger.<br> I did not get a lens yet but been looking for a 80mm f2.8 either a early or if I can a PQ version, <br> which I'm not sure I could use and that's the question could I use the PQ version without damaging <br> the camera, I know there a bit old but aren't we all using a lot of old camera's out there because we <br> just love these little guy's.</p> <p>Thanks </p>
