Hello all, I have a Shanghai Seagull TLR (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009UU3E/002-9322751-6803226?v=glance&vi=manual-submit) that I bought in China for under ten dollars. I believe that most everything works, except the shutter is incredibly oily. It fired maybe a dozen times before finally sticking. I'm a complete amateur, and I bought it thinking it would just be fun to take apart even if I had no clue how to get/keep it working. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here could give me any information on disassembly- either getting to the shutter or being able to remove it from the camera. My plan is either to apply some alcohol and let it set a couple of times, or soak the shutter if its possible to remove it. Can anyone help? Apologies if I've described anything poorly or said something ignorant- again, I can't say I have any knowledge to draw from here. Thanks, cameron |
