Hi,
I am a complete novice at camera repair and trying to open my Oly 35 SP to clean the shutter blades in the hope that this will get it working again. I have got this far (see pic) before reading that it is easier to get at the shutter from the front!
so
1) Should I continue dismantling from the back?
2) If so, what do I do next? (Do I have to unscrew all the gubbings on the right?
3) If I instead go from the front is it the same as this? http://www.kyphoto.com/classics/oly35rdcleaning.html
4) What size lens spanner do I need for either front or back? (I got this far with screwdrivers and pliers)
And assuming I get that far
5) Is it hard to re-solder the wires?
6) How do I get that pin back in?
Thanks in advance.
