Thanks. Here's my first question:
I have a Rollei from the late thirties. I dropped the back of it
while changing film one day last summer, and I just found out while
processing the film from those months that a lot of them have a
strange bar shaped flare across the picture. It's always in the same
place. It looks as if light is getting in at the corner and then
reflecting off one of the rollers. I think the back must have gotten
bent or something when I dropped it. I tried to straighten it, but
apparently I didn't do a good enough job.
I looked online for a rollei repair person that repairs older rolleis
like mine, and I found Krikor Maralian in New Jersey. Should I send
it to him? Or is there somebody else that I should consider to
repair this old rollei? There is another well-known repair person
named Harry I think, but he only works on not-so-old rolleis.
