Any one fancy an Isolette Project.

[SCOTFORTHLAD]

I have an Isolette 11,in good cosmetic/mechanical order,but it has a jammed shutter,some minute light leaks on the bellows,and the lens looks as if it needs a light clean.

The lens is an Apotar 85mm/4.5,and the shutter is a Prontor-S with speeds up to 300.

If anyone out there would like to have this as a restoration project,and will cover the postage/shipping,I'll pass it on,just let me know.

Cheers,
Brian.

very generous of you Brian, i hope it goes to someone that will make good use of it

I have a restored one and it is worth the effort or money.

 

[SCOTFORTHLAD]

Thanks everyone,all sorted.

In the end I decided to rescue the Isolette myself,but took the easy way out and sent it to a man with the expertise to do so.
So the camera is currently in Belfast with Leslie Gilmore who is working his magic on it,and should be back with me soon🙂

Cheers,
Brian.

Oh yes...Lesley Gilmore aka Beedhams, your Isolette is truly in good hands.

The Isolette returned today,with replacement bellows and a cleaned and adjusted lens and working shutter.A roll of neopan 400 has been loaded,and I'll give it a run out over the next couple of weeks.🙂
