Guide Positions

After every part has been thoroughly cleaned and is ready to reassemble, one last little tip for the front of the camera. I always forget to add in the little square piece of glass, so don't forget to do that yourself. When replacing the glass square, make sure you don't smudge it or the viewfinder lenses as you put them back in. Also make sure the mirror is clean and unsmudged, with the reflective side up. When placing the front viewfinder lens and square piece of glass, this picture shows the little grooves they fit in. This ensures that they always go exactly where they need to go. To get everything to stay in place while I'm reassembling it, I prop the back of it against something so that it's at about a 45 degree angle.

Once everything is clean, fitted back into place and screwed back together, you should have a camera that performs as good as the day it was made! And you can be proud to carry it around with you for all your photographic needs. I've found that my Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Flash cameras can produce some excellent pictures!
