Yashica elactro 35 disassemble - Now what?

[pedro.m.reis]

Well that worked out ok also. Just 5m more of pacience.
Then put it all back, the top and bottom plates and moved to light seals.
Here, with the Jon Goodman kit all went ok .. no probs at all. Only a few questions on what kind of seals use in
the camera.

Finally........ the lens assembly.
Put the optics back in .. the last ring or "bezel"... and now i'm test-driving the camera.
I'll post a cofe&camera pic when the test finishes.
It was fun, and not possible without the help of G'Man 😀

Besides G'Man, the only help that i had was ...

What is sprucing ? 🙂

 

[pedro.m.reis]

Hehehe, ok.
I'll do a flea market ride next weekend to get some "subjects" 🙂

 

[pedro.m.reis]

Well, unfortunely here in Portugal i cant find a place that sells this kind of cameras. The flea market that i know of is full of plastic slr junk only. Or, in "antique" markets they want $150 for a camera that sells for $15 on eBay. ... So i'm sticking to eBay for now.

 

[pedro.m.reis]

hheheh true. And in eBay i get another dilema: Should i buy a camera for $10 and then pay $20 for postage? 😀

 

[pedro.m.reis]

Yes .. but it gets me mad 🙂 ... and i'm not even talking about the fees on customs +6% +21% + €8 ....

 

[pedro.m.reis]

even from russia and those fsu countrys?

 

[pedro.m.reis]

Here we always pay. 1€ or 1000000€ 🙁
