Default Re: Vintage film cameras

I don't know, it's solid as in metal against metal, rather than gunked up. It does have a VXM switch so it could have been crossed up with that and just needs releasing. I tried again with the Mamiya Auto Deluxe, and it's going to be sold for spares. It's a Copal SVK shutter which is Japanese code for Even We Don't Know How It Works. This one does have the self-timer and M-sync engaged together, but it also has a small metal tab inside broken off which is required to adjust the shutter speed, and trying to get it apart if like trying to undo the Gordian knot. Pants.
Nah we're going to be locked down for quite some time, time to find something time-consuming to do.
