I need some help I have the following lens that are out of timing. Yes I should send the lens off for a clean and adjust but I cannot afford it right now. Duri ng the middle of august I have the opportunity to take a class at Coupville Art Center on Using the View camera. My Dad gave me a Linhof Tech III and the len ses are cammed for it. All are in Synchro-Compur shutters that are very random when I use a Calumet shutter tester the list of lenses are 90mm f6.8 Angulon #321xxxx W/Cam 150mm f4.5 Xenar #317xxxx W/Cam 240mm f5.6 Tel-Xenar #332xxxx W/Cam I read that you can use Lighter Fluid to unstuck the shutter blades but it does not look like it would be safe or in other words it looks as though it would be easy to make it worse. I do have a 127mm f4.7 Ektar that I can use for the clas s BUT it would be better if I could use all of the lens if the lighter fluid wor ks. If I can afford to have only one lens cleaned, I was thinking of the 90mm o r the 150mm this would be for the class and Landscape B&W after. Thank you
