A Crank Message

[rbiemer]

Hmm. rewind crank you say? Not sure I'm familiar with that. 😛
Actually, gene, thanks for posting. That's a good heads up for any Bessa R users out there!
I will have to count myself as one of the folks around here that doesn't own a 35mm SLR. I do have a Kiev 60 though.
That Voightlander VPL43(?) that Photo Village has looks pretty interesting.

Attention Hassy wanabees...

Coming up FS soon (well, pretty soon) the much aclaimed
"Poor Mans Hassy", a very nice Kowa Six SLR. I'll post it here before I go to the a-site. Might consider 35 RF trade in the $300/350 area. Look it up on the web (see: http://www.kilfitt.org/Cameras/Kowa.htm ) and you'll see why owners claim Rollei stole their current models from Kowa.

You can contact me off site at: rick_beckrich@yahoo.com

Rewind Crank Fixed !!

Rewind Crank Fixed !!

Rob, haven't you put a rewind crank on that Fed-2 yet? 😀

Rick, I've heard good things about the Kowa Six. Unfortunately for me, this comes a bit too late. I've already made a commitment ...

My last reponse on this thread got lost: the rewind crank has been fixed and nail polish has been dobbed onto the screws...

No more nail polish jokes guys! At least the restore saved us from seeing those again 😀
