CLA techs for Rollei

[_amyrose_]

I think you are right . I appreciate your reply. I do need to get the focus hood repaired/replaced since it was damaged by Customs when they did their security check. Can’t take any photos with the damaged hood. I could try to force it open each time, but thinking the better solution is to purchase a new focus hood.

Thanks again for your suggestions,
Amy

You can take pictures without the hood, at least to see if the rest of the camera is working. Zone focus, shoot a generic scene where you don't have to worry about the composition -- even a wall at a known distance will work.

Super! Thanks so much!! I will try that if the hood is a total loss -

I would suggest checking with Koh’s Camera for a replacement hood/finder. Jimmy Koh was a long-time Rollei tech (now retired from repair business I believe), and his website shows some Rollei parts with a note to call for anything specific.
