Copal-MXV Yashica-Mat (05)

Copal-MXV Size 00 Leaf Shutter from a Yashica-Mat.

Japanese 6x6 TLR, produced c.1957

 

The Shutter Mechanism Plate removed.

 

Unfortunately the Blades did not stay in place :-(

 

However it is quite clear that 5 (smaller) Reinforcement Blades are used.

4 of these are underneath the Shutter Blades but 1 (see red arrows) sits on top.

 

This is how it should be according to Copal MXV service information. Care must be taken to re-install the 1 on top to the same Shutter Blade position !

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 !
