Medalist Conversion Adjustment Cost BACK TO MEDALIST INFORMATION
Here is some generic boiler plate on the Medalist conversion
120 and 620 are for all intents and purposes identical it's the spools that differ.
Function is not changed by conversion. 120 spools are slightly longer and
slightly greater in diameter than 620 spools. [ both sides are changed to accept 120 spools]
The design of the 620 spool primarily functions to prevent using film made by other
manufacturers from being used in the camera.
The standard conversion cost for either a Medalist I or Medalist II is $345
[plus shipping/insurance back].
Adjustment and lubrication and cleaning most prisms is included, shutter
cleaning is not, but if cleaning and re-lubrication of the shutter is included at time of
adjustment to 120, the total cost is $475.00 for "shutter" and "conversion" together.
[Note this adjustment is for both film chambers meaning you spool from feed 120 to
take up 120 ]
The Shutter cleaning if that is the only thing to be done is $ 185 but includes
necessary adjustment of focus and rangefinder.
To adjust only the feed side to accept 120 spools but not change the take up side or provide
any other work the cost is $120
If you have any questions let me know or call during my regular phone times
to talk about it.
