There's not a lot of difference between the Contax and Kiev.

Anyway tested it out seems to work.

This reads like a thriller.

Now I know why it’s been hard to find someone to fix my Contax iii’s shutter!!

Maybe when I finish a few easier repair projects…maybe when the long winter evenings arrive, I’ll get the gumption to try fixing it myself.

Its actually not too hard if yours has the ribbons. Its a little bit fiddly in places, but there are plenty of tutorials to guide you through.

Haberdashery.
3mm ribbon, bought 3 types, one fitted nicely, thin, the right width, no stretch. They were all out of 3mm grosgrain.
