My Wista cherry wood field camera (DXII possibly) has arrived today and I'm really pleased with it. A real beauty!
I'd just welcome a bit of advice from fellow Wista owners: the focusing on my camera is ok but is a little stiff (I have made sure the locking nut is undone enough as I turn the focus knob). I was wondering whether you'd recommend putting some sort of lubricant on the runners and brass gears? I have some good quality beeswax furniture polish which I thought I could rub on the runners and I thought about a little PTFE bicycle lube for the gears on the basis that it won't leave a wet or sticky residue to attract dirt.
Any thoughts or recommendations gratefully received.
Thanks,
Gavin
