<p>Sorry for my late answer (I received no email notification)<br>

Updates:<br /><br />I have managed to recover the shutter release button! After opening again the camera back, I have turned the film take-up spool gently to the left and while hearing a ticking sound as the weal has turned (tried a day before too, but than it was almost stuck and turning it was quite hard) everything went to normal. I made for about 10 test shots.<br /><br />Than it happened the following:<br /><br />After turning the camera off and back on, the advance lever now stops turning at the half way. Opened the back again, and tried to turn the take-up spool again, but now it goes quite hard and there is no ticking sound. The frame counter shows an "S", even with the back closed and the film sprocket holder turns like loose. <br>

What maybe is important that the film rewind button at the bottom won't spring out. Can this be connected to the above?<br /><br />Made some videos for a more clear explanation:<br>

<p>Hi,<br>

A few days ago I have bought a Nikon FM body. The camera is in perfect condition, there is not even a scratch on it. When I have received the body I did 2-3 exposures and it worked perfectly. Than I have attached the Nikkor AF 35-70mm, and I have put it back into the bag, but before this I have messed a bit with the setting dials even with the Shutter Lock button if I remember right.<br>

<strong>The next day when I winded the camera up, the shutter button did not go all the way down it was stil like locked, and even with the shutter release off, it still won't fire. I don't know why the shutter is still stuck, tried to put all the settings back but nothing changed.</strong><br>

<strong>Can it be because of the lens, or something did jammed around the the shutter lock dial?</strong></p>

<p>Thanks,<br>
