| View Full Version : FED 2 Question Guillaume Zuili 11-05-2005, 06:53 PM Hi, A friend brought me back from Russia a very nice Fed-2. I just wonder how to rewind the film. How do I release at the end of the film ? Best regards, Guillaume clogz 11-05-2005, 07:03 PM I used to have a Fed 4 some years ago. IIRC: near the wind on lever there's a ring around the shutter firing button. Press the edge of the ring and turn towards B. Good luck Guillaume Zuili 11-05-2005, 07:09 PM As simple as that...! Thank you, Guillaume clogz 11-05-2005, 07:10 PM You may have to reset to C when loading a new film. This link mau be of some help:http://www.upcnet.es/~org/htm/main_fed2.htm Gerald Koch 11-07-2005, 11:25 AM Early FED-2's (FED-2a) have a separate lever like the FED-1 rather than a collar around the shutter release. matchat 11-11-2005, 07:10 PM Probably best off not setting to C as it is unreliable, I always set to about 2 frames before zero so that after winding on 3 frames I get '1' on the frame counter.

Got mine for $40 on eBay a few months back. Shutter needs cleaning.... |
