Hi every one: Got a couple mechanical questions to ask. First one is about my SRT 202- CLA'd by a professional. Has been working perfectly for about a year. Just noticed today that the mirror stays up at any speed from 1/30 down. Refuses to come down with a rap on bottom with the palm of my hand, but comes down with the film advance. It does not drop, but comes down in synch with the movement of the advance lever, just like my old Contaflex used to do. Don't know if it has been doing this all along, because hadn't had occasion 'til today to use the slower speeds. 1/60 and higher works perfectly. Doesn't really bother me, other than I don't think this is normal. (?)
Second is regarding all three of my Ricohs. Both KR5 Supers will continue winding after the film is advanced, and continue to advance the film, indicating a problem with the lockout. My XR1 does it intermittantly. Once again, it does not keep me from using them, but it is annoying.
Has any one fixed either one of these problems? Thanx, Roy
