Hi all,
I use Minolta A2 Rangefinder from 1955.
Suddenly when I cock my film advance lever, it get stuck, but I have use this camera with no problems before and give best results.
- How to repair this problem?
- I try to open bottom plate to release lever with manual way, it is possible?
- How to open the bottom plate? because the only screw is only one.
Thanks you and please help
 
Hi,

I just saw that yout Thread has no replies. I only know the Minolta A-2 from pictures so I can't be much help. There is only one screw visible. I would guess that there are more screws hidden under the leather-patch in the middle of the bottom plate. Also it might be possible to unscrew the tripod-mount and the film counter wheel.

Good luck!
