Hi all, I have a Yashica Mat 124G that has winding issues. It will partially wind then lock (both directions) randomly. I can press the shutter which does not open the shutter as it has not yet been cocked and it will wind through the remaining cycle (less rotation now since some of the winding has already occurred). The film is not exposed a second time when this happens so it can be lived with, but we all want to fix these annoying issues. I have the exploded parts diagram and plan to lubricate the winding gears & linkages as it has the coffee grinder sound (My other 124Gs wound fairly smoothly). But I am wondering if the winding problem is due to a sticky winder stop - doesn't seem top be a blockage in the gears. Anybody have the same problem? Ciao Sean |
