Super Symmar 110 shutter help

Without wanting to add further distress to the OP I have in the past been in a similar situation and I was advised by Schneider that the Super Symmar XL lenses should not have shutters swapped without returning to the factory for tolerance checking. I have in the past replaced shutters on other older lenses without noticeable loss of quality, so just passing on the idea that if the shutter is original it might be a good idea to get it fixed rather than replaced.

Hope it works out.

Phil, thanks for that additional information. Do you know if there is supposed to be a shim in the shutter? The Caltar II N (Sironar N) came with a shim. The Super Symar 110 XL did not.
