Hi all,
This little Ricoh 500 RF has been sitting in my 'things to do' box for ages and ages because I picked it up in flea market for 20p with a broken black plastic rewind crank handle.
I'd almost forgotten about it but today I was searching through one of my junk boxes looking for something else when I found a small metal crank handle. I thought, "I wonder?"
It fitted! The rest of the camera seems to work OK but the light seals for the back door are a sticky horrible mess, so I still haven't quite finished it. Oh well, back in the box. Shouldn't take long, though, I've got some black felt so all I've got to do (when I get time!!) is to clean out the old sticky, cut some strips and glue them in
