Hi everyone, I am planning to restore a no. 2 folding brownie camera, but I'm not too sure where to start. I have no experience with camera restorations, I have been doing some research, but there seems to be very little about the camera's construction. The condition of the camera are as follows: *Lens board is broken at the bottom where it attaches to the focusing slide. *Shutter a little sticky but operational. *Leatherette is worn on the corners. *Lens needs a clean. *Red window needs placing. *One of the film rollers is stuck and will not turn. *General clean of the camera body is required. Any tips and advice will be very much appreciated. The following link shows a restored version: http://taotothetruth.blogspot.com/2011/01/i-for-instantaneous.html |
