Ciao a tutti!!
I have a problem with my Sinar F2 8x10”: the back tilt get jammed when I don’t use it for some times…well, I have to say that if I “force” it, and when I say “force” I mean that I have to use a very very hard force, I’m able to unjam the back tilt, and then it is fully functional until I use the camera (usually no more than a couple of hours), but when I put the camera in its case and use it after some days, the back tilt is jammed again…another thing that I noticed is that the back tilt "zero"/click stop, is not so "clear" anymore, on the front standard I feel a clear "toc", while on the back has become quite undetectable...rise/fall/shift/swing have no problems…
Well, before I take the camera to the Sinar service, which is very very expensive here in Italy (at a point that maybe is less expensive purchasing another F2 on the used market ), I’m wondering if anyone experienced the same problem, or maybe if you have any ideas or suggestions, so that I can try to repair it by myself (on the F2 the tilt mechanism seems very simple but I have no idea why this is happening)…
Thank you!!
Ciao
Marco
