I have a fairly new R3M, about 4 weeks old, maybe 12 rolls through it.
Really love this camera, and as an MP user I have a lot of great things to say about it.
However, today I found the film advance lever started sticking once I wound on; it kind of stays hanging out all the way to the right, then slowly moves back. It does not release back, as it did before and as one expects.
The camera is still useable, but it's very frustrating, especially given it's a 4 week old new camera.
Anyone experience this before, or have any advice how to handle it? Probably needs an adjustment, but I don't whom to send it to and I'm reluctant to spend money to fix a new camera (although it would be good to know a reputable tech for the Bessas).
I've contacted Rich Pinto at PhotoVillage where I bought the camera to ask if he can help. Ideally I can get the body swapped.
Thanks for any feedback.
