Hello Scott, I bought another (cheap) Samoca 35 LE for donor parts, and I compared them, but nothing seems technically missing or different on my camera. I changed speedgears from both camera's, it gave a bit better result, but the donor camera worked even better with 'new' gear... I think I have to drown both gears in lighter fluid to start with and lubricate them again. I'm almost convinced that this is a common problem for the 35 LE. Both camera's tend to have insecure and irregular slow speeds 1/5, 1/10 and 1/25 (maybe no wonder after 50 years). Maybe the problem will solve cocking the shutters on those speeds for many times. I'll keep you informed by mail if I find out what really the problem might be. Greetings, Bernhard |
