Hi all.
I have somehow laid my hands on a Linhof Super Technika V.
Amongst the several details I need to fix in it, there is a screw missing that secures the end barrel of the viewfinder to the slider for zoom.
I've looked everywhere for service manuals to no avail. Does anybody perchance know the characteristics of that screw? So that I can get a fitting replacement.
Thank you very much.

You are looking for a screw for an old version of the Multifocus Finder. Contact any LInhof service center.Quote:

Thank you very much you both.
Dear Embdude and Salomon,
I'm contacting a service house in the US (the only place I might get parts sent to my forwarder) to inquiry about the screws.
The tech at this place is checking their spares to see if they have the correct pieces. And they're asking for a copy of the diagram where I get the part numbers to verify.
But before sending the diagram over I want to make sure this won't cause problems for Embdude or the forum. Not that I plan to explicitly mention either, but it's very probable the techs are members of the forum, and being new to Linhof I don't know how close to the vest they keep their technical information and/or service procedures (some companies are more rabid about this, as I've found out while helping a close friend with Fuji Frontier devices for his very tiny lab).
