Upload Image Smilies [quote][i]Originally posted by jed[/i] [br] Hello, Just want to share some close up pictures of my Contax IIIa repair [:)] See focusing wheel and rangefinder window : [img]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/4297066295_3babfc20b7_m.jpg[/img] Slow speed timer and high speeds curtain shaft (located below top plate) : [img]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4029/4297806636_040d1a6e29_m.jpg[/img] Front plate and lightmeter : [img]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2758/4297071853_a5da6b964c_m.jpg[/img] IMHO focusing is easier with Kiev 4. But Contax IIIa has some nice improvements (changing speeds is easier, viewfinder is slightly better...) Contax IIIa still has ribbons inside. I originally thought they were replaced by gears but it's wrong [:0] Best, Jed [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
