I have a pretty decent little Olympus 35 IV here that is missing its wind knob. I need that knob, and anything below it and above the frame counter wheel. I really don't know what all parts would be under the knob.

Can anyone help?

Thanks a lot,

Wow! That is a beaut! All you're missing is the knob and, I believe, a small spacer that goes between it and the frame counter.

How is the lens? I've noticed that the front of the rear element gets pitted. In some cases it it so bad the lens is useless. Out of six (including IVa's), only one of mine has a clear lens.

I'll try to make some time to dig thru mine and see if one is bad enough to be sacrificed for parts.

Thank you Tim! I know I looked at the lens but I don't really remember how closely. I don't remember any issues but I'll have to go take a look to be sure. The shutter fires fine at all speeds though and overall this thing seems really nice. I'd love to get it running.

I took a look at my cameras lens and it seems pretty clean. Not enough dust to warrant opening it up and I don't see any pitting.
