About a year ago I acquired (here) a 90mm Angulon in a compur rapid ( no cable release ) shutter, for all round WA use on a pacemaker graphic.
The seller was concerned at the shutter (it seemed a bit sticky) so gave me a polarioid copal 0 at no extra cost.
Shutter speeds seemed OK but need to be able to mount cable release so I renounced lens in Polaroid shutter, all worked OK (I thought) but I seemed to be getting a lot of overexposed sheets, I have finally traced the problem to the fact that the rear cell on the lens actually fils the diaphragm blades so thats no solution.
A new shutter costs fortune so seemed best to buy another Angulon in a syncro compur, with cable release.
Done, bought one at good price, but guess what it has a sticky shutter (even at B) below 1/50!
So what now?
Get this one CLAed? But who? Since my local guy shut, yet to find anyone here in France that I have confidence in to do repair work. In UK/London? (there monthly) In Europe?
Or try to do myself?
Or?
