    Hello All Well I got the helicoid free and smooth I reinstalled the lens assy and locked up. So looks like the focus on the lens is locked also, Can I soak the entire assy in alcohol? Or any other suggestions short of taking apart? Thanks Don

    Latest update I used a heat gun, like a hair dryer, and that freed it up. That was earlier today, I just went out and it is tightening up again. I will try some lube when it gets here. Thanks Don

    Hello Thanks Again, I have removed the lens group so no problem with the naptha migrating into the lens. I am having no luck with getting it to free up so I reread so old threads and have ordered a couple of chems that are suppose to help free it up and relube the unit. If there are any other suggestions I would appreciate it. thanks Don

    Hello Thanks for all the advice, this does have the helocoid focus behind the shutter? I have some lighter fluid I will try that first and let it soak for a while Don

    Thanks Chuck I have it sitting in the HOT California sun right now to see if that frees it up. If it does free up do I take the rear element out to remove the lens unit Thanks Don

    Thank You both I figured a slow film as that is what was available back then. The Manual did mention something about the ASA that I glossed over until I was ready to shoot. Thanks again Don

    Hello All I recently received the above camera that is in excellent condition except that the take up film spool carrier is missing and I think one of the little posts is missing as well. If any one has this part or parts or knows of a place I can get them I would appreciate it. Thanks Don

    Hello Thanks, I did find the 58mm 1.2 on the bay, I was searching with the X and none came up The SRT202 and the three lenses cost me 150.00 so the 58mm is about twice that so got a good deal. Thanks Don

    Hello All Question more on the lenses or the one lens I can not find anything on the "bay" about, the camera is in pristine condition as are the lenses It came with a Rokkor-X 50mm 1.7 and a Rokkor 100mm 2.5 and the one I need info on is a Rokkor-X 58mm 1.2 I know the 1.2 lenses are more expensive but since I can't find it is it rare as well Thanks Don

    Hello Joe I do use a Patterson tank. I am going to try the kit on another roll and see what happens. Don

    Hello Joe Is that prerinse and is it 120? Maybe its Ilford films I am seeing it with? Don

    Not really sure how you could leave backing paper with the film and install on reel? I have had prerinse come out black or dark when doing BW film, I have found this on different films, no one else? Thanks Don

    Thank you both, I have only used the kit once, the developer looked fine when I poured it out of the brown glass bottle I use for storage that are filled to top. The film was a roll of Kodak 200 Gold, I think, and a roll of Ferrania Solaris 800, which I think may have been the problem. It was expired in 2011 and I didn't think about remjet or know if they used remjet on this film. If it was remjet can I still use the kit or dump the whole thing? Thanks Again for the help Don

    Hello I was developing C41 with a Cinestill kit and as using 35mm I did not prerinse the the film and when I dumped the developer back in to the bottle it was black like the prerinse on 120 film is when you dump So just wondering if the developer is done for? Also I got nothing on the negatives they were all blank and dark. This was my second batch of C41 I have tried the first came out ok Thanks Don

    Hello Here are a couple from the Nikon FE that I had the meter repaired on and a CLA The film is Fuji Superia X-tra 400 This is the first color roll I have developed, My scanning leaves a lot to be desired! I tried Silverfast first and had nothing but problems so tried the Epson and did a little better. As always comments and critiques are welcome Thanks Don
