Frank also told us in Bronica Users Group that the EC TL II is the most serviceable in Bronica FP cameras. It has only one board with 4-5 capacitors, some IC and other components. I also read from a japanese repairman that most of the problems are with the aging soldering joints and it can be fixed easily. For the EC and EC TL, recently a user has upgraded his reverse engineering of the shutter board and now the shutter problem can be fixed. So unless the shutter solenoid is kaputt, it is possible to fix it.

The S2 S2a is a nightmare though, which I ran as fast as I could from to the EC TL.

If you turn the disc lock all the way until it stop, there

should be no problem.

The problem with disc lock is if you turn it half way

it is not easy to see that it is not fully locked, Unlike

lever type of lock, it is easy to see whether it is fully

locked

Then this 16M is a keeper for me, I just need to be careful with it and I can let the 16MB go. Thank you very much for your help.

Edixa 16M , 16MB are technically identical, except the MB

is a black model, looks better. Both has very sharp Schneider Xenar four element lens.

Both model has lever type film chamber lock, which is

easier to operate then the disk type lock of Edixa 16

I have two Edixa 16MB with leather case

Thank you very much. But my 16M has disk type lock and not the lever type of the 16MB. Will this one give me problem later rather than it is hard to turn with fingernails?

Hi guys,

I got a Minox but didn't like it much. Then I got an Edixa 16 MB however it has many problems: film door is hard to close, viewfinder has no coating, etc... After that I got another Edixa 16M in very good condition, but I heard the MB is more desirable because of the film door, will mine develop problem later and I should find another 16 MB instead of this M?
