<p>I know this is an old discussion but if anyone is still reading it and curious about the sticky shutter, its a simple repair. you just have to unscres the front surrond to the front glass carefully not to damage the glass. then remove the glass too to expose the shutter blades. When you have, use cotton wool buds and lighter fuel to dampen the blades and fire the shutter a few times. Keep repeating this till it fires everytime. It may take a while but worth it. Don't over wet the blades and just put back together carefully.</p>

<p>I bought a Lynx 14e off Ebay and needed a battery as well as the shutter being stuck, but after getting the battery and patience with cleaning the blades with lighter fuel to free the blades till it fired everytime, I ended up with a perfect working camera. The lens does tend to attract attention from other photographers though. Good selection of shots. Like the market shots.</p>
