Question on Lubricating Bellows
« on: October 04, 2015, 16:44:16 »
I use the Nikon PB-5 Bellows a lot, but the turn-knobs for locking the standards don't move smoothly. How are these to be lubricated or freed up a bit, please?

A whiff of CRC or similar spray might help? Only the tiniest amount is needed.
