Then I replaced seal once again and pasted over clefts with black, non transparent tape, nothing changed again 😦 Now I don’t know where might that leak come from, Thank you for any suggestions. |

Big Set of Yashica 124G
Saw this big set of Yashica 124G on ebay… very complete system and truly speaking, I never saw such a complete set. The accessories are in very nice condition.
description by the ebay seller:
Where to start.This is the biggest complex set I’ve ever seen.If you want it all with one stop shopping, this is the set.
Camera is clean with all covers and buttons working,and there are many.
2 triggers for an option to use either to operate the unit.
Nistar Flash works and has 2 leads, 1 is coiled and flashed bright when triggered.Also has original direction book.Contacts are clean and non corroded.
There are viewing lenses 1 and 2 with their own leather cases and in plastic bags .
Yashinon Wide Angle set of 2 lenses in leather case.
Yashinon Telephoto set of 2 lenses in leather case.
Alpex light meter #44456 was registering light readings and has leather case.Flip up light meter door works great.
Camrex Cambron Polarizer Filter B-30 looks great.
Peak Mono Tone Viewer very nice medium dark brown lens.
Yashika Square attachment I think is for field reduction and light/glare reduction
Metal mount,not sure what it is called but attaches where tripod does and has a vertical fist type grip with safety strap,shown in mostly folded for storage.
There is the Yashica original complete instruction guide/manual.There are so many papers on what to set camera at for specific subjects,what films to use and where and why,what speeds to set for different shooting modes and actions,Helpful hints and tips,what lenses, filters to use where and when.All kinds of information and I didnt get all papers into the pics,there wasnt enough room.
There is a brand new battery that I removed from package to test unit and then put it back into package.
This huge set is 20 pieces counting the carrying case but NOT counting the lens covers and such.
DIY Replacing Mirror in Old twin lens reflex cameras
![]() |
This time, replace the mirror surface (mirror surface reflection) is the name of the domestic machine Ricoh flex VII.
Twin-lens reflex, so it is most similar to the structure, time does not change the Minolta auto code in Rolleiflex. Mirror surfaces are then extracted in this way is usually degraded. Focus position is not changed even by changing the mirror surface of the structure because it is pressed against the stopper plate spring on the left. |

To which the mirror surface is available, those sold for repair camera is generally very expensive.
Cut glass is in the hardware store. It is sufficient for the cheapest ones. |

It is a simple glass cutting than I had expected. I think the bend while pulling on both sides put the scratches in the glass cut it hang. Can not peel off the protective sheet until the end of the blue.
Repair of dozens of twin-lens reflex is possible with a single mirror of ¥ 1,890. No doubt because it is so you do not put a face sheet of blue glass cutting shed. |

You have put a protective sheet surface of the front side blue. I’ll leave this up to the mounting surface of the sheet, so very weak. |

This is a Ricoh flex, it is exactly the same procedure in the Rolleiflex. |

The mirror is fixed by simply pressing plate spring. Then, peel off the protective sheet of blue. |

Shiny. Brightness of the finder was felt more than doubled to experience.
I want to try so very simple. Finder of the old twin-lens reflex is to regain the glow of the time. |

This flex Aires automat (with Nikkor).
Hood focus of many twin-lens reflex depart with four screws. |

Severe degradation of the mirror surface. Is how the mounting plate is pressed against the stopper in the spring as well. Even if there is no movement of the focus to be replaced. |

We cut a new surface mirror. Since the tip of the cut glass is not stable at normal scale, I will use one that does not slip if there is a certain thickness.
Cutting units of 100-yen shops, this is also useful as a mouse pad actually. |

Here but have to peel off the sheet, those who do not have good peel.
So I tried to put Fresnel incidentally here buying. |
