When I crank the film rewind and press the shutter, the mirror will go up, but the shutter will not fire unless you move the aperture ring and the mirror will not come back down unless you move the aperture ring some more. I know that the Kowa cameras are renouned for being complex, but I was wondering if there was anything I could do to fix this. Any advise will be helpful. Thank you.
