I have the opportunity to pick up a Retina IIIc in fair to good condition at a very low price. Its shutter doesn't cock, but I figure that's likely a stripped cocking rack.
My question is about its front viewfinder glass, which is described as "cracked in two places." Does anyone know if that is a flat piece of glass, or is it a ground lens? If a ground lens, what are the chances of my being able to find a replacement? |

G'day Nparsons13, the front glass is just glass, and is fixed to the inside of the top cover.
Regards, Chris |

Ah, great news. I can replace it fairly easily then. Thanks, Chris! |
