Hi!
I recently bought a nice Konica (Revue) Auto-Reflex, but it did not have the battery compartment cap. Does anybody know were I can find a cap that will fit the camera?

If it could help I got the battery that was inside it. It is an V 625 PX.

Thanks! :-)

Can you measure the diameter of the compartment, and confirm it's threaded (rather than a bayonet)? I'm thinking that battery compartment caps for the same type of battery would be a pretty standard size and thread pitch (subject, of course, to what more knowledgeable folks here say).

Other common cameras with flush-mounted battery compartments that use the 625 are the Minolta SRT series (101, 201, etc.) and Olympus OM-1. You're a lot more liable to find spare caps for those than for the Auto-Reflex. This is the original one with switchable full frame/half frame? I envy you!
