[HUG] Re: THE SWC

Tom,

If used and serviced well the spring in the C lenses with Compur shutter never failed.

These shutters needed more attention from a service point of view and should be given a new spring with every service.
I never had a Compur shutter that was propperly serviced in time fail on me.

Q.G.

Nivarox!  That was it!

It is a special alloy used mostly in the watch industry. The name is a acronym for 'Nicht Variabel, Oxydfest' (Non variable, non-oxidizing).

Nobody remember what the Compur shutters in the C-series Zeiss optics are good for?

Not the number, but that the Nivarox would double it.

If it was on the web, maybe the Wayback Machine (

Will take a bit of searching though.
