Loose Arri SR2 Top Handle

[Felix Lovell]

Hello! I have recently come into possession of an Arri SR2 and have noticed the top handle is loose. It's an ex film school camera, and it looks like someone has stripped the thread securing the top handle and maybe removed a nut? The top handle is attached to a beam splitter which accepts a Videotap. The one attached os a CEI Color V.

Is there any way of repairing the top handle without sending the camera for a full CLA or is it something that would just need to be replaced?

Appreciate any advice!! Also if anyone knows how the CEI Color V performs as a Videotap would be keen to hear your experience!

A machine shop could probably fix this, repair the thread with an insert and mill some new holes for pins to keep it positioned
