My GW690 lll has got a foreign body of some kind in the shutter, so it some times fires, some times is blocked. I have some amateur experience with other shutters, so I want to open the shutter and try to fix it myself. The repair manual (bought on ebay) describes the procedure to get at the shutter assembly by dismantling the lens barrel from the camera body and screw out the rear lens element. I am trying to loosen the element, but am afraid to use too much force, besides I am not sure if I must screw clockwise or anti clockwise, that is, if the lens element is to be taken out towards the camera body or towards the front. Has anybody relevant experience to give me an advice?
