help working fuji gsw690ii

[dan otranto]

I recently got a 690ii and i cant get the shutter button to depress when the back is closed, there is a little button that pushes in and prevents the buttons from being depressed...what do i need to do to get it working? the shutter lock is not on.

thanks

I have the mark 3 version with the 90mm lens and you have to have film loaded in the camera for the shutter to fire same as for my Plaubel Makina 670.
I hope this helps

Dan, ther'e nothing wrong with your camera. As the above threads say, you need to insert a roll to activate the shutter. The other easier way is to open the camera back and you should be able to trip the shutter normally.
