Hello
The shutterblades of my FED-50 are stuck after a long period of inactivity. If I probe them with a needle, it is easy to open the diaphragm, but as soon as it closes, it doesn't open again. This happened in the past and I was able to solve the problem with ronsonol drops or by turning the focusing ring several times in both directions. Now these simple remedies are ineffective.
I am willing to go inside the shutter but there is a lack of specific instructions about how should I proceed.
Does anyone has experience with the FED-50 shutter repair ? Any advice ? Opinions? Useful links ?
Thank you in advance.
