pix-are Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I have an m645 that is doing something strange. If I store the camera upright or on its side the shutter seems to lock up. It will NOT release even when I press the red button or move the shutter speed dial off of the red dot. Everything is fine when I put it in the bag but at some point the shutter locks up and I end up having to waste a pic getting it back to the right state. Battery is new and everything else seems fine. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_papandreou Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I would try pulling the camera down and cleaning all contacts ect and the batt contacts. Do you have a different lens or body ? If you could borrow - This would help isolate the fault. I had a strange one with my bronica ETRS it would lock up in a photo shoot at the wrong moment annoying. The stupid thing would be fine every other time . It turned out to be a bad film back !! the camera and lens are fine. I just bought another film back no more problem.

pix-are Posted December 25, 2006 Author Share Posted December 25, 2006 Well, I found it was my stupidity. I wasn't loading the film correctly. I didn't pay attention to the start line when loading the film. It works correctly now!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
