Hello,
I just acquired a Pentax 6x7 and tried the camera without film to try the speeds of the camera. Unfortunately, I noticed the mirror always lock up when advancing the film. Even if I don't touch the MLU button.
It is not the common problem you see with mirror stuck halfway, because he always come back normally after I shot the picture.
So I tried something, I removed the lens and move up a piece of metal before advancing the film and magic! The mirror doesn't lock up, and the shot make the mirror flip up and down normally.
So now that I know my problem a little more of my problem, can anyone help me about that? I still don't know if the piece just need a little grease or if it's the mecaism of the button which is broken.
Of course, I really search the web and the forum to find a solution and I came up with nothing so please don't be hard on me if you find the solution somewhere
Thanks in advance and I really hope someone can bring me a solution!
