Same here, I never had it in hands but it seems well built. Congrats on you new old camera and share some photos made with it

When this is the case a new pinhole appears it’s time for change the bellows
I use electrical liquid tape from the inside.

You are t.h.e. m.a.n.!!!

Found it here, other brand cheaper for about 3 bucks a can. It's spray form so still difficult to apply to tiny pieces, if used over the pieces the grease would just move from one part to another, still need to rub the dirtiness with cotton or tissue...

Good catch!

I had this lens with the Clarovid 6x9, it’s a triplet, good lens or at least the one I got.

I agree with Phil, first for the level of work (non pro) lighter fluid is enough, you can clean the small remains after with a lens tissue, shutter blades for example.
Second I don’t know how to find that thing here

Now I have one Retina type 118, the second in the line, still need to work with it since I’m not 100% sure I collimated it correctly, few time now for camera repairs.

That’s is a nice camera! You are right about the film transport of a IIa, mine had problems with counting frames.

Nice photos, Phil, happy you eyesight is back

Beautiful photos, Graham!
Fog is one of the things I can’t try because there’s very few here living on/next to a city.

I like the most those with sea and mist.
