->Hi,
-> 
->I have a stereoscopic camera, and its unfortunaly out of order (same =
->fault, second time). It is the Belplasca, a product from the former
->East = Germany. The fault is:=20
->the transport is blocked
->Normaly after taking one picture its possible to transport manuelly =
->nearely exakt to the next position (one or three slides forward).
->I can transport only with open shutter and have to stop, when the =
->counter jumps to the next picture. This is not exakt enough.
-> 
->Is there anybody who knows how to open and repair this system?
-> 
->Thanks=20

Yes - I've got one "on the bench" at the moment. I have completely
stripped out, cleaned, and re-assembled the film advance, shutter
mechanism and cocking mechanism to cure a similar problem to yours. The
problem is a simple one of appropriate lubrication, but it needs full
cleaning first.

The only thing I CANNOT do is dissassemble the lens focussing mount...

Any ideas, anyone?
