OM-1 - early black version unbadged MD. The self timer lever is loose, as if fully wound on, yet it won't release. I've taken the lever off by removing the left-hand threaded screw, and removing the lever altogether. The little metal tab which the lever acts upon is indeed right down at the 7 o'clock position, and refuses to move. Any ideas as to where to go from here? Disassembly this deep scares me, prism replacement etc - no problem! Thanks in advance! Dom.
