SPT - PetriColor35
Specialized technical service manual by the Society of Photo-Technologists (SPT) for the Petri Color 35 camera, published January–February 1972. This comprehensive workshop reference covers complete disassembly, inspection, and repair procedures for the black standard model, including pre-service examination and precise calibration data for shutter speed verification and flash synchronization alignment. The manual details operational theory of the film transport mechanism, wind lever-actuated shutter release, and the safety ratchet assembly governing the sprocket tooth plate and drive gear system. Includes annotated photographs of critical assemblies and step-by-step guidance for servicing the exposure meter safety switch, helical focusing mount adjustment, and battery replacement procedures compatible with period-correct types (HC, National M-1C, Mallory RM 675, Toshiba TH-KC). Essential reference material for camera repair technicians and restoration specialists working on classic rangefinder and SLR film cameras.
