The QL17 GIII has a mechanical shutter lock that keeps the shutter button from depressing if the camera is set on auto and the exposure needle is in the red on either end of the scale. It might be worth it to make sure you have a good battery and clean contacts and that the needle moves freely. There is a battery check light next to the viewfinder. Because the Canonet is completely mechanical except for the meter, I would suspect that there's something dirty, broken or stuck in the shutter speed system, like a spring or lever or something. |
