It appears that the gears moved by the diaphragm setting lever need lubrication in my Canon A-1. When I move the lever up and down, I can hear the whirring noise, which indicates dry gears moving. That same lever does not make that kind of noises in my other fd camera. Looks like I need to remove the mirror cage to do this. Before I peel away the leatherette and open the screws from the front, I wanted to know if I need to do any desoldering at the top (wires or flex circuit). Can somebody give any hints to keep in mind while doing this? Thanks. |
