Is there a specific type of Kiev (not the Kiev IV which I lovingly restored!) shutter which is needed? It seems a strange thought, to use a cheaper engine inside something as historic as the Contax II. Although facing the alternative, which is to split the camera in several hundred parts instead of the intensive labour to put this all together again...I'm really unsure... Thanks for your thoughts.
