Pentax Super A, focusing screen

Posted 13/09/2006 - 13:11 Link
Hi everybody,
my Pentax Super A has the focusing screen damaged.
In the past, I tryied to cleen the screen using alcool.
Now the pictures are taken well but it's hard to focus since I see "clouds".
I have contacted the Italian Official Technical Support but they told me it's impossible to find this component.

Does someone know where to find a new focusing screen for my pentax super A?
Is it possible to adapt another compatible model of focusing screen?
Does someone know where to buy a broken pentax super a, having the focusing screen safe?

Any help is gratifully accepted!

I have a "broken" super A which I may consider selling for spares ... I will have a look at teh focussing screen to see what state it is in.

It would be perfect! but can I change the focusing screen by myself?
A friend of mine told me that Super A has a fixed focusing screen and it would be hard.

Hi,
I have a couple of spare new Super A screens at home. If you havn't worked on a camera before, I would recommend getting a repairer to install it.
