Rolleicord III - Shutter repair slow gear

Paid for repair but sadly did not do the job, so i did it myself. Look out for higher quality videos soon.

And just to remind everyone, even after seeing all the parts that made up the shutter, THIS WAS THE BUDGET MODEL!! Wow!! What craftsmanship!

Great video! Thank you. I've got a second hand Rolleicord with the same issue.

Such a good Video Thank you for posting this!!

Kinda all for nothing because you did not do two most important things: clean the old dried lube from the slow speeds escapement by immersing it in a solvent and you did not adjust the speed by precisely angling the escapement on one of the screws which holds it. Also, WAY too much lubrication.

Is it much different than repairing a rolleicord IV?

[@jadrienclemente8157]

future me, i wont lie this was my first and only repair on any type of film camera so im not to sure but if i were to guess it would be the same idea. I just made sure everything went back together which is easier said than done. believe me i knew just as much as anybody else who watched this.

I successfully fixed the slow shutter. However I forgot to mark the focusing screw. I am wondering how could I calibrate the focusing now?

I am not entirely sure but you can find some great information online, www.rangefinderforum.com/classics/forum/messages/2/22427.html?1315874067 - www.photo.net/discuss/threads/focus-adjustment-rolleicord-iv.237833/ - here are links I believe might help

@@jadrienclemente8157 thank you so much for your reply. Today I used an object and ruler to measure the focusing. When I saw object was in focus through viewfinder, the feet value from the ruler matched with the value on focusing ring. I then tighten the focusing screw. I will try a roll of film and see if it works😆
