Hi all, I recently picked up an Olympus 35 DC. So far, it's been great to shoot, except for one little issue... the film advance lever is a bit inconsistent. I'd say 70% of the time, it works as expected, but 30% it's a bit loose and only advances ~half a frame. Releasing it and trying again will advance the remaining ~half frame, and based on the 4 rolls I've had developed, the spacing/advance is correct. And the lens, exposure, focus, etc all appear to be functioning fine. Does anybody have any experience disassembling this part of the camera? Or anything obvious to check/lubricate/whatever? I'm happy to dig into it if somebody can confirm it's doable at home (and a bundle of springs and tiny screws are NOT going to launch across the room). If it's particularly fiddly to rehab the lever, I'm happy to use it as is, just figured it might be a reasonable weekend project. Thanks, Alistair -

No knowledge of the waist level finder. You might try a DM-3 right angle finder. There's also the DW-2 "Chimney Finder" which provides a 6X magnified view of the whole subject from above, -

R7 with EF100-400 and 1.4x extender; 100% crop. Tripod mounted and 10 sec timer at f/8. Wilson Ave water intake crib for Chicago which is inactive and supposedly scheduled for demolition. It seems to be a bird sanctuary and is just over 4 miles from me according to Google maps.
