Hi,
Ive just bought a 220 back to get started on medium format, and im absolutely chuffed with it, but the film advance lever is just a touch wobbley. I read a guy on ebay who's selling a back that the handle on it is really wobbley ("as in it is still attached but I would not like to say it will be for much longer") an he says you can ajust it by screws. Can you? It would be nice to have a 220 and 120 backs for it.

Thanks in advance,
Andy.

Hi Andy,

I'm not familiar with the RB backs, but would guess that removing the leatherette disc from the top of the wind-on lever will expose the screw which holds the lever to the winding spindle? A simple tighten may be enough or even a small dab of screw-lock compound to stop it loosening again?

Regards,
Mike
