I have a pentacon 6 tl with a broken film counter. Can anyone steer me in the direction towards a resource that shows me how to fix it? Drawings, photos, anything of that sort that explains the operation? This seems to be a pretty frequent failure on these cameras, any body know a fix? |

There is a soft aluminum part that hits when you release the wind lever to start the counter it wears . You might make the part out of steel and a repair manual is available still from (ed romney) You can find on google. Don |

It might just be the return spring that has come loose. You would need to take the top off to hook it back onto the screw that sits underneath the top. |

As always Rick Oleson has the answer, check his site under pentacon six stuff. |
