Good morning to all! I am getting started on my LF project and need some help. I did basic light leak/focus/lens shutter testing on my new 1953 Pspeed the other day with some surprising results. The result that brings me in here today is the two frames I shot using the FPS came out exactly the same even though I shot them at 1/30th and 1/50th. So, it appears that the little lever at the bottom that shifts between the two groups of shutter speeds is needing my attention.
I have that wonderfully comprehensive “War Dept” manual but it’s for a 1947 model with the very different focal plane shutter mechanism.
Anyone know how exactly that group selector lever works? Or where I can find a repair manual for the later model FPS?
I’m shooting wide open on my lenses and need the flexibility of 6 speeds…
Cheers!
