Sonuç

Before reinstalling the shutter block, consider replacing the old foam seals on the camera chassis. With the fragile shutter curtains removed from the camera, it's easier to scrape and clean crumbling foam. The long strip along the edge of the shutter and the seals around the edge of the film door usually need replacing.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Thank you for this. I think I must be crazy doing this as my first camera repair attempt. I had dirt and oil all over my shutter blades and it was jamming every shot.

I managed to get through every step... until... Trying to resolder those short wires to the mirror box (the ones with the metal ribbon amongst them, near the frame counter). If you have any tips on actually managing to do this it'd be much appreciated.

Yeah, this is the crux, the trickiest part. I like to lay the camera on the lens mount with top towards the soldering hand and the bottom towards my tweezers hand. I start with the wire closest to the lens mount. Get it in place with my tweezers as best I can, then sneak the soldering iron in just long enough to reflow the solder. Just be patient, you'll get it.

Hi. On step 29, you mention that degraded rubber parts should be removed. But do you replace them with something else? What is the consequence of removing them? A little more sound from the shutter or more wear to the shutter blades?

Stig Vidar Hovland - Yanıt

Honestly, I can't say what their specific purpose is other than some sort of damping. There are still two larger rubber bumpers on the bottom of the shutter that catch the edges of the curtains. Those do most of the work of stopping the blades without damaging them. I've tried both approaches, replacing the dampers with homemade parts and leaving them absent, and haven't been able to identify any differences in performance. The recommendation to leave them comes from that experience as well as comments I've seen other repairers make when they service this shutter. From what I can tell, they are supposed to be T-shaped and about 1 mm thick, in case you want to make a replacement.

Sam Gustafson -

Hello Sam, thank you for a very detail explanation on how to get these specific parts.....however my question is about when it goes all back together.....is there any way you could do a step by step of that? How the mirror box should be before it goes together.......even the firing sequence for the shutter blades....

When I did put it together the shutter button when pressed down.... it didn't fire....maybe i missed something.......

Hopefully you can help out?.......Thank you again for your time....
