My friend gave me a Ricoh XR7 which has been idle for more than 10 years. When I put in new batteries and press the shutter release, the mirror went up but the shutter didn't release. Now the mirror remains up and film advance lever frozen. I opened the base and unlocked the film advance but the mirror doesn't come down. I guess the mirror magnet might be stuck. Any ideas? How can I reach the magnet? I have looked at the base and think that I can't reach the magnet there. Any assistance is appreciated! |
