Martin,
It sounds like the mirror is the problem and should be fixed or replaced.
I've used United Ophthalmic repair for this same repair in the past. He is
an old Topcon repair tech, but most important, he has PARTS!

Subject: [optimal] Topcon 50VT question
Optimists:
The mirror to the top port of a cherished Topcon VT is still moving when the
digital picture is taken, causing intermittent blurry photos. The delay on
the flash seems to be greater on the Polaroid setting, making me think the
delay might be electronically controllable.
So... does anyone know how to adjust the delay on these beautiful antiques?
I would think another 1/10 second would do the trick without being too long
for patient movement. I am fairly handy, and have not been electrocuted
yet.
FYI-
We already dampen most of the vibration on the mirror with little springs to
help hold the mirror tight against the stop . And no, just using the
Polaroid button doesn't work.
Thanks for the help.
