Some people soak the lens in alcohol. Some use a hair drier to apply a
bit of heat (slowly)

Glad to hear you are all OK. I mostly just stay home and do
the minimum of shopping. Would love to see the Super Ikonta pix.
The Super Ikontas have a good reputation for sharpness despite
the front element focusing lenses.
The main thing about L.A. is that traffic is so light it
looks like a holiday every day. Grocery stores have spaced lines.
I have gloves and masks and wear them when out of my car. It
would be hell without the internet.
Meanwhile I am trying to get the front element out of an
ancient Rodenstock Trinar LF lens. It has some haze between the
elements. I made a friction wrench but can't get the retaining
ring to budge. I don't want to drill the ring for a spanner so
will continue trying the friction wrench and various solvents for
a while. This is a 12", f/6.3 lens I bought many years ago. Dates
from 1915 to 1920 from the serial number.

Great, thanks, Ferdi! I'd love to see them, too.
Also glad to know you and others are yet healthy. We're
bunkered down here in Faringdon for the last month and prepared
to keep on. We have a 3 year old, so nothing much gets done in
the daytime, but I'm getting an occasional roll of film
developed in the hours that I steal from my sleep.
Best to all!

Jan,
Yes, I still have a Nikon medium format film scanner for more
than 15 years now. I shall scan them and I may have a Flickr
account. I'll let you know. The images are not very special,
just some shots from our garden of trees and benches I could
easily focus on using the range finder.
Ferdi.

Ferdi,
Would love to see some of your Super Ikonta C images with the
Ektachrome. Do you have the ability to scan and upload (to
Flickr or similar)?
Good to know you are fine.

I would like to report back that the Super Ikonta C is O.K.
To make sure I exposed an old Kodak Ektachrome E100GX from
the freezer. The images are sharp (and the colours are fine).
I hope that everyone of the List is in good health. The part
of the country where I live is not very much affected. Of our
district with 50,000 inhabitants only 6 are (were) in
hospital and that number is stable for about 4 weeks.

Is there no way to look at the image on a ground glass?
