I've been using a Bessa L for my very wide lenses, but it always felt a bit unstable due to the light weight, and thought something heavier may help
So I dug out an old leica III from the back of a cupboard, pulled out all the old film chips, wiped it down with an oily rag and bunged a film through it ... and ... either I'm shaking a bit with taking steroids, or it is because of a sticky release.
When I depress the release it seems the be stiff then go all at once, it's quite smooth until it's wound, but still, I haven't used it for a long time so I may be misremembering it anyway
Anyone know if there is anything to improve it?
one advantage, I am able to see the polariser through the 50 finder
