Hi there everyone, I have recently acquired a Zeiss ikon contina 1b.
When I first got it I would it on and clicked the shutter. All seemed fine. Then I found that it would not wind on again no better what I tired nor would the shutter go.
I took off the front of the camera using the screws inside of the camera body
After filling a little I managed to get it to wind on again, but this seems like it was a mistake because now the bar across the top which has a ratchet on it (does it tension the shutter?) is stuck out and I can't get it back in. I can't seem to move anything.
The shutter is still not firing though even when trying the lever on the back of the lens assembly.
Any help would be great.
Thank you.
