What am I doing in my four Kievs? First of all zero-in rangefinding mechanism, and some minor things to be done when making the primary dis-assembling.
But first of all I am assuring that the already good, zero-in cameras, will stay that way. As described at the Kiev Survival Site, the fixed lens part of the rangefinding mechanism, at the right window (aerial view), may just fall off, or the basis of the moving rf lens fixed by 2 screws may just move. Therefore I am glueing what is to be glued (see again KSS) in my best working camera, the 2a.
All these after my Kiev 4AM workhorse went suddenly out of alignment. Not so suddenly as for the last months it was living all day in my daily backpack (and I am a daily biker !).
I know fixing a misaligned mechanism will drive me crazy. So before offensive, containment !
Cheers,
Ruben
