Sounds like the moment for percussive maintenance! I doubt that would help - time to take it all apart again. |

Well, I've finally taken the Kiev shutter out of the Contax. The next step would be to transplant only the shutter curtains - we'll see. Meanwhile, I might put a film through another of my Kievs, but fitted with the uncoated collapsible f2 Sonnar from the Contax.

I'll be very interested to see what you get, John - I must get the hang of Caffenol and run another film through my III, which has the same lens. I should try colour too, I believe the uncoated Sonnars have really dreamy bokeh.

 A 1962 Kiev, fitted with the Sonnar lens. It's loaded with Kentmere 100. |

Even with the brick on top, it's still a looker!

The meter even works, and is reasonably accurate. This is the first film I've had in this one, so there could be faults to be discovered.
