badfelafel_brosh Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 I have a little Minox B... but I dont think its working! When you go to close it, it doesnt want to close all the way. (The Shutter speed and ASA are coupled OK)... It doesnt click when you depress the shutter (should it when there is no film in it?) And theres little silver things showing across the viewfinder and lense. Is it terminal? Is it OK? Any ideas??? Thanks!!! PS this is a great forum!

richard_oleson Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Ouch! You've broken a shutter blade! You can buy replacement blades and springs here: http://www.minoxdoc.com/Parts%20&%20Service.htm the procedure is shown here, sort of: http://rick_oleson.tripod.com/index-32.html Whether you can do this yourself is not certain. The work is not terribly complex or difficult but the parts are VERY small and this can make it harder. This is not a job for large fingers. :)= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
