A good friend of mine is using an original Canon F1, which is now in need of some repair service. He has checked with the Canadian supplier, who was of no help at all. Here is his description of the problem: "One of the 2 pins which release the removable viewfinder has fallen out and disappeared. Doesn't affect operation, but now I can't clean off the focus screen, at least not conveniently. So, I'm thinking I will have to find a used pentaprism (preferably trashed) from which I can salvage one of the release pins." If anyone can help out with advice about who in the world (literally) might be able to put this fine old camera back into perfect working order, we would be much obliged.
