Hi
I recently purchased a Yashica 5000e with the 1.8 lens and the timer is stuck and therefore the shutter doesn't trip either.
I've read on the net this most likely happens when someone tries to use the timer in M mode and not X. Given the camera arrived in M mode I assume that's where the problem lay.
On the net comments are it requires a lens take down to reset.
My question here please is - has anyone on the forum taken apart these lens and if so are there any break down steps or images available showing the take down steps?
If you've had experience with this particular problem then your advice greatly appreciated thanks.
