You are welcome Jefferey, I forgot to add that the "V" with the arrow indicates "Vorlaufwerk", in general it means "selftimer" on a photographic camera, however it also could indicate the shutter mechanism to produce the slower speeds and/or a clock mechanism more technically, I think the term also has other meanings in German that have nothing to do with a photographic use.- All the best Carlos --- Jeffery Smith <jls@xxxxxxxxxx> escribió: > Thanks much, Carlos! > > Jeffery Smith > New Orleans, LA > http://www.400tx.com > http://400tx.blogspot.com/ > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf > Of Carlos Manuel Freaza > Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2006 6:01 PM > To: rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [rollei_list] Re: Two mystery pieces 3.5F > > > The level with a V is the MXV lever, the bulb is M, > the lightning is X (electronic flash), and the V is > the position to work the selftimer. > The camera has two identical switch levers on the > bottom on right and left, on left it's the shutter > release and shutter B position lock-unlock, on right > it's the flashcord terminal lock-unlock.- > > All the best > Carlos > --- Jeffery Smith <jls@xxxxxxxxxx> escribió: > > > I just got a used 3.5F and am not quite sure what > > two levers do.
