OK... Thanks for your notes... Battery was installed fresh and the testing diode lights as it is suposed to do. Let's drop the battery subject. Lets explain some scenarios.. 1) Lens is on the camera, multiple shot is set (the lever is in horizontal position), crank is turned all the way. In this case the body cocks but the lens don't - the pins on the lens retreat to the uncocked position when lens is taken of the camera. If the lens in cocked manually outside the camera and then installed on the cocked body you get a correct exposure but only if the multiple exposure lever remains in horizontal position. If the lever is moved to single exposure there is no release of the body or the lens, in fact you cannot press the release button all the way. 2) If the multiple exposure level is set to single shot, with the lens on or off the camera, you are able to wind the whole roll of film in one time since there is nothig that stops the cranking / windindg mechanism. With the lever in single exposure (vertical) there is no cocking of body or lens even if it was cocked before. In single exposure there is no way to press the release button as if the camera was not cocked at all. Thank you for your input |
