need suggestion on 35RD

[roundg]

I just picked up a 35RD with defect for about 25USD. It has

1)jammed Shutter, which should be the known issue
2) slight focus in the lens, should be able to removed
3) missing the plastic part of the film advance level

I was thinking to do a DIY project, but I'm afraid that I may not have the proper tools. WHat's your suggestion for the camera? Do you think it's worth to have it overhauled? If it is, any recommendation?

Regards,

The shutter jam because of dried oil is indeed a known issue with the RD but that should be easily taken care of by an experienced camera repairer. The RD has an exceptionally good lens for a fl rf and it's not a common camera. I sometimes regret having sold mine.

Unless you're familiar with servicing cameras, I would not start with a 35 RD.
That camera is good enough to have it repaired properly.
There has to be at least one camera shop in Singapore that still accept repairs for it.

Thanks, my friends. I think I will get this camera serviced.
