Agfa Optima 200 Sensor Demolition (26)

Agfa Optima 200 Sensor (second version).

German viewfinder camera produced c.1969.

.

When the Resistors Board is removed it is possible to push the Selenium Cell upwards and out of the Body..

 

The dimensions of the Selenium Cell are about 17.5 mm height and 24.5mm width.

 

The Cell here is practically gone and only gives some milliVolts. Not enough anymore to move the needle of the Meter. Also no meter reaction when the parallel resistors were short-circuited :-(

WARNING :

This image is intended as a reference for the more experienced camera service man. If you have no experience in camera repair please do yourself a favor and send your camera to a professional service shop. It would be a pity to lose a vintage camera in a failed repair attempt !
