Hiya everyone,
I had one of these lovely little guys as a teenager and never forgot it. Bought one on ebay recently and it worked brilliantly for 3/4 of a roll - and then the shutter jammed. (The photos that did come out were beautiful, of course). This is what happens: when I press the release button, the shutter opens and then freezes. I only can get it to close again by flicking the camera into reverse mode- obviously not too helpful in real life but it's clearly ABLE to close. What do you think the culprit might be? Any suggestions gratefully received!
