Hi

 

I have a Leica IIIG from 1957 and I have a problem with the shutter. It seems to go too slowly. The second "curtain" moves very slowly from left to right when released. Is there anything I can do? t seems to get stuck. Does anyone have an explosed view of this camera?

 

Thanks

Who is "Steve's"? I have an M4P in need of a CLA (small amount of fungus in the viewfinder, not visible when used, but visible from front).

 

Kindermann in Canada wants $250 plus 2-way shipping - which is OK if that's the going rate. When I tell you that the last camera service I had was at Marty Forscher in NYC, you know that not only my cameras are older models.

 

I'm ashamed to admit that in 25 years, the M4P never had a CLA. Just keeps on keepin' on. I've been a bit disappointed in the wide-open performance of my 1980s 35mm f1.4 Summilux, but always amazed by my 50mm Summicron and 90mm Tele-Elmarit.
