The contrast filter probably won't help. I think someone has cleaned the mirror a bit too well (from the wrong side). Only very bright souces of light are showing. There are very detailed step by step instructions for cleaning the IIIf rangefinder here: http://www.mediajoy.com/en/lrc/ And if I should decide to cut a mirror myself, there's material for sale here: http://scientificsonline.com/product.asp?pn=3043359&bhcd2=1232780859 I'm still wondering if the mirror from Zorki/Fed I rangefinder would be proper size?
