Boris, I suppose if you can fix a watch you can fix a Compur shutter, but I'd never attempt it myself.
The extra data on the lens indicates that it's a convertible lens. As a symmetrical lens (Symmar, get it?) it has two approximately identical optical groups, one each side of the diaphragm/shutter assembly. Remove one of the groups (the rear I suppose) and what remains is a 370mm f12 lens. regards, Anthony Farr ----- Original Message ----- From: "Boris Liberman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hi! > > A friend of mine enabled himself with 4x5 camera with Schneider > Kreuznach Symmar 1:5,6 / 210 lens.
