Hi Ian,
When you turn it on there is a sound of a motor but there is nothing happening. The lens cap is in the half-open position and I am unable to take pictures.
Thanks,
Ted

Hello, I just inherited this camera from my mothers estate. I noticed film in the camera but the battery was dead. I replaced battery and rewound film thinking the camera, which certainly felt solid, was still working. When I reloaded film and tried to take photos it stuck and wont either take photos or close its lens cover. The battery was supposed to be good to 2016 so I can only put it down to a problem with camera itself.
I read it is supposed to be a good camera and wonder whether other users consider it worth repairing. Its more for sentimental reasons .
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ted

<p>Hi Ian,<br>
Just got it back from Just Cameras who replaced main circuit, cleaned and tested everything. $150. and it is as good as new. Heavy, solid but works great and look forward to seeing the quality of prints. Makes a nice change from the digital cameras which I am used to.</p>
<p>Thanks again & Seasons Greetings.</p>
