Switch to "SE":
"mirror" fires the mirror upgreen LED flashes once
"start" releases the shutter (no matter if the mirror was up or not) followed by film transport and instant morror return.
Switch to "ME" red LED next to "start" lights up:
"mirror" fires the mirror up, The green LED flashes once
"start" releases the shutter (no matter if the mirror was up or not before, it stays up after exposure)
press start more often to take more exposures
setting "SE"/"ME" back to "SE": Film gets transportet, mirror returns down (red LED goes off)
Hope everybody else's SLX & MRC 120 will work the same way

If the MRC 120 does work on the SLX or not? I'd have to find mine and try it or find a manual and (SHUDDER!) read it.

For the MRC 120 I'd have to dig one out ... probably you turn from ME to SE before you trigger the last time and the film will get transportet after the last shot within the series.
On the other hand, with the ME-1 you can do a lot of funny things ... multiple exposures with very short intervals etc..

I would write Harry Fleenor and ask him if he is able to clean haze from a 3.5 Tessar on an old Automat.
You might include the front on photo of your camera.
He can overhaul the sticky shutter and whatever else it needs. In my experience he won't give a quote until you send him the camera and let him look at it.

Either way - it fires but is definitely slow and stuck a few times when testing. The lenses look a bit cloudy etc.
It's not for sale but in your opinion is it worth the money to overhaul? In good shape how would this camera compare to my mint YashicaMat G?
I have always wanted a Rollei TLR so I am leaning towards getting it refurbished and possibly installing a brighter screen (plus it's a family heirloom) If I get it done I want to do it right and assume the cost will be ~$250-$350 for pro service. Does that seem to be a good estimate and would it be worth it if there was no family connection?
Thanks,
Rich
