I have an old Rolleicord and the film transport knob doesn't function anymore. Someone knows how to fix that? I could remove the knob from the camera but I don't know how to open it to repair the spring in it...

If you have to ask: "Don't do it!".

Dear Jan!
Thx for reply... If I understand you good, I have to keep my hands off it. But I have to find a way to fix it. I really want to use the camera and I need to transport the film...

It's no quite like brain surgery, but in case there is something I can't do but I know there are people who can, I go to a specialist.

Anyway, what model Rolleicord are we talking about?

Hi Jan,
It is a Rolleicord from around 1935. Model 1 "Art Deco Rollei" 6x6
I would like to find someone who can repair it...
