Today I am looking for a part for my FT-2. Is is not mechanical part, but I miss the plate on top of camera, where we can read the different positions of the 2 levers to choose the speed. The four screws that maintain the plate are here, but not the plate itself.... May be someone could help me please?
Dear Fred No problems at all. If you have another FT2 or a frind who has, you need to remove the plate ot the other camera, make a quality Xerox copy (in color mode) and plastify it in the nearer paper stock shop. After this it is a patience job. Make first the holes and finally cut it in the right size and isntall the new sheet. Everything is OK Good luck! Regards LP
Thank you very much I have another one so I can do what you suggest. In the meantime, I will try to find one in a camera sold for parts...Maybe it is possible in Bievres....
Dear friends, I have acquired an FT-2 camera without the cassettes inside. I have searched the internet regarding spare ones, but only came across advice to simply buy another one with cassettes. Is this really the only way or does someone know maybe a DIY solution to overcome the problem?
Part for FT-2
