- Voigtländer Vitessa Camera Repair and Maintenance
Hey Dmitri, Ive picked up a Vitessa that a bit of a project (sticky shutter — wish me luck, but it’ll be fun). One of the issues is the rangefinder mirror has fallen off. What glue did you use to repair yours? I assume super glue isnt the answer
Hey, I used silicone. Ideally, it’s best to use a glue that can fasten the materials securely (glass to metal) but the problem with superglue is that it’s very fast and very messy. Instead, something that takes time to cure will give you a chance to clean up any residue, test, and make adjustments.
I don’t have an exact brand or make, with me right now — sorry!
