I need to move the Metered TTL Pentaprism from one Graflex Norita body to another. The prism itself is very easy to unsnap and resnap but the
tall Shutter Speed dial must be moved as well. It was I who installed it on the first camera, years ago but now, I don't seem to be able to take
it off again.

I am quite sure there is a tiny screw that attaches the bottom part of the Extender Dial to the shaft that sticks out the top of the camera body but, where the standard shutter speed dial has the screw visible in a little hole on its circumference, there is no such hole visible in the dial ring at the bottom of the extender.

How does it come off? Would greatly appreciate some help with this.

Hi . . . at the bottom of the knob there is a sliding cover with the speeds engraved on it which pulls up to reveal the three clamping screws . . . if you send me your email address I can email you the relevant pic: billhill@blueyonder.co.uk . . . Cheers!
