Recommendations???

[JeffGreene]

Hello all:

I was hoping someone here could help. I own a Canon IIB Rangefinder (circa 1949) that was recently CLA'd and had the curtains replaced. Would anyone have any suggestions as to where I might look or what I might do to enhance the film rewinding process?

I have arthritis in my hands, and am finding it more and more difficult to use the rewind knob. I have heard of various lever attachments over the years, but do not know where to get them or whether there is another solution. Any recommendations or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Jeff,

Though I cant help you with your question, may be you should post this in general discussions section and not in Russian Rangefinders. I am sure somebody will know if its possible.

I don't personally know of anything. Have you tried asking DAG about it? Start here: http://www.dagcamera.com and he might be able to help you.

Good luck!

This should actually be in Canon Rangefinders. Joe? 😛

Stephanie:

I posted in the Canon Rangefinder forum and did not receive a reply there. Thus my post here. I love the camera, and would like to continue to be able to use it. Thanks.
