Analogue cameras last a lifetime — if the right parts are available. Battery doors, film spools, shutter latches, and eyecups: everything needed for repairs and restorations, made in-house in Germany.
Battery Doors & Battery Compartment Covers
The battery compartment cover is the most commonly lost part on analogue cameras. Reproduced in durable plastics, precisely fitting each camera.
Why do battery doors break?
The original hinges from the 70s and 80s were designed for limited opening cycles. After 40+ years of material aging, often just the wrong angle is enough. Our reproductions use more modern material blends and are designed for higher bending strength.

Film Spools & Film Transport
No film runs without a take-up spool. Originals are rare, expensive, and often bent. Our spools are exact reproductions — fits perfectly, holds securely, transports reliably.
Leica Barnack: Quick Load vs. Standard
The standard spool works but is fiddlier to load. The Quick-Load version (like Leica SPOOM / 14021) has a slotted core that holds the film start without trimming. If you regularly shoot with a Barnack, you save 30 seconds of frustration per roll.

Covers
Hot shoe covers and focusing screen covers protect sensitive contacts and glass surfaces. Small but critical for preserving value.

Olympus installed four different hot shoe designs across the OM series. The covers are not interchangeable. Type 1 fits the OM-1 and OM-1 MD, Type 4 fits the OM-1n and OM-2n. Look carefully before ordering—or send a photo.
