Since I've been researching and reading and from the responses that I've recieved, I've determined that my new camera is an Annivesary Model, wartime era because there is no chrome parts.
After watching youtube videos I've learned what that crank thing on the side is that I had been wondering about, and I also wondered how I attach a cable release to my lens.
This morning while cruising eBay, I came across a photo of this camera for sale, which looks exactly like my camera, just cleaner:
I also noticed that it has this silver part attached to the shutter,
And that's when I noticed that mine doesn't have that part.
Can anyone tell me what this part is called, where I might find a replacement, and exactly how necessary is it?
For the time being, can I put black electrical tape over the holes and trip the shutter with my finger just to run a few test shots through it?
