I have recently acquired a Tower-branded Walzflex. When looking through the viewfinder (very clear, BTW) it's apparent that the mirror has shifted such that the image is tilted. So, when I open it up, will I find the mirror is attached by clips? What would I use to reattach it if say the clip(s) is/are broken? The camera is otherwise in good shape. |

Some cameras have clips, some have clips held by screws, some are glued in. The only way to find out is to open it up. If it's shifted, it probably is a clip mounted job n was rapped on the side or dropped. If the glued mirror is shifted, it is probably the old varnishy type glue n heat caused it to move. |
