  1. Hello everyone. I'm relatively new here, however I have done searches both in the forums and outside the site and I haven't found much that can help. I recently came across my grandparents' Argoflex 75. It's in relatively new condition, and while I know it's not worth much I'd like to be able to take some photos with it for sentimentality's sake. Unfortunately, the shutter on it tends to stick half open. As I said, I've done some searches on how to fix the issue, but most of what I've found hasn't been very helpful; mainly people saying that you'd be better off just buying another camera. I've already taken it apart and cleaned it once, and afterwards the shutter worked perfectly for about 20 clicks, however it started sticking again. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to clean the shutter? I'd rather try to get it fixed myself instead of taking it to a repair place and spending $100-$200 for them to fix it if it's a fairly easy fix. PS: that viewfinder spring is a hugs pain in the rear to put back on. I had the dang thing fall out 4 times during reassembly. Ack!
