Anyone have an exploded view of this shutter with the front plate and adjusting rings removed? Great Ektar lens...shutter works at all speeds...but the contact is broken off and missing that completes the flash circuit when the shutter is tripped. I need to know what the missing piece looks like. I don't see this specific shutter in John Craig's listings and am not sure if this shutter is covered in Romney's manuals. Fred.

Never mind. After careful analysis...the application of sheer logic coupled with a good measure of s----house luck...I was able to fabricate and solder-in a piece to trip the flash (my Heiland Strobonar) , while set on "X" for strobe, at the precise moment the shutter is wide open. Sync is perfect. Thanks anyway, guys. Fred.

Whoops! Sync was perfect the first try, but then became very unreliable in subsequent tests. The reason that I'm posting this, is that if anyone else needs info on this shutter, I'll be happy to oblige, as soon as I receive the literature. I'm going to school on this one.
Regards,
Fred
