I am getting back the Fujica STX1N my daughter jammed the film advance lever. Along with this is the standard 50mm fujinon lens. Here now is the 28mm lens for the same camera. Anyone interested to buy as a job lot or separate,reasonable bids? e mail [email protected] |

i,m no pro at camera repair but i,ve got few jammed film advance lever cameras under my belt. their really pretty simple fix. most you have to remove camera bottom which usually only consist,s of removing battery cap if the camera has one on bottom and 3 to 4 screws. just observe the way the film advance lever moves the internal mechanism. it should slightly move things even in locked mode. one camera i fixed it cleared it self while i was removing bottom cover the film advance lever was jammed also. another a vivitar i believe after having to drill out stubborn screw i only had to move a pawl lever on film advance side and it freed it self. camera,s lube getting dry dirty on film advance mechanism can be enough to jam camera. then theirs people that try to get that extra picture out roll of film does,nt help either. you only need fair mechanical ability and good set of jeweler screw drivers. hope this helps.
