Jason’s workshops notes:

Very good condition camera upon arrival. Just required a full clean and service with new light seals and new leather in Oasis Orange. Of particular note was the strength of the selenium cells in various light conditions – like new. Inner screws on second lens were slightly loose so were re-tightened after lens stripped and cleaned. Lens overall feels more connected and assured on all settings since the service.
