Pentax Spotmatic F mirror damper replaced_DIY
The camera came to me with a decayed mirror damper foam.
I replaced mirror damper for some of my cameras before, using black foam sheet from Michaels store.
I find that a piece of foam on a respirator mask (see the photo) is softer than the one from Michaels store, probably a better material. Let try it. I cut a strip of it, glue it in. Well done!
The only thing is that it has grey color, not black, it won't be a problem, I hope.
Will run a roll of film soon to see how things go.
