Konica EE-Matic Delux F
Konica EE-Matic Delux F is similar to Wards RF 450 or Konica EE-Matic Delux 2 that I worked on before.
The difference is that it used magi-cube flash and looks kind of neat when you lift up the reflector.
The problem: The focus ring is not moving. The Auto/B ring is not moving properly.
The camera looks very clean so I hope I can get this camera repaired.

The focus was not moving because the grease used on the focusing helicoid got too old and gummy and turned into glue. It took me a while using pluming tools to get the lens out from the helicoids :) I did not damaged the lens.

The contacts have battery corrosion. I will clean the posts and may have to replace the spring contacts.

The shutter blades were running fine but the aperture leaves had oils on them so I decided to take them all apart to do cleaning. The shutter is made by Citizen and it uses only two blades for the shutter but the aperture leaves are 5 just like a serious rangefinder camera like its brother, Konica Auto S2.

It will be fun putting them back tomorrow.

One of the spring battery contact was replaced. It is little bigger than the original but should be O.K. The right side is the old part and the left side is the new contact.

The battery contacts for the meter battery holder is made of stainless steel. The wire could not be soldered. I used a silver electric conducting epoxy. I think this good material was not available back then.

The camera is now working fine and it is for sale and this model and similar is now available from me to repair.
