Subject: [Leica] Visoflex III and M5 (help)
From: Gary Elshaw <gary.elshaw@vuw.ac.nz>

Hi All,

Does anyone here have an email address for Ed Schwartzreich, or 
possibly help with a problem a friend is having with his Visoflex III 
and M5. This is a bit of a long saga involving mirror's not flipping 
due to the armature of the M5. In short, does anyone know who 
modifies the arms to be used correctly with the M5, or have 
suggestions how to make it work properly so that mirror auto-returns?

All of the Viso gurus i've talked with have suggested using almost 
any other M but the 5, sadly the M5 is my friend's only option.

Take care,
Gary
