Hi! First of all, I'm new in this forum and in world of repairing cameras. I recently bought an Airesflex U (version with Coral lens and Copal Shutter - B to 1/200 and self release mechanism) in a auction for about 20 U$S. The most of the camera is in perfect condition: mirror, viewfinder, lens, frame counter and overall appearance. The problem the camera has is that the shutter doesn't release. I didn't find any repair manual on line, only a guide for a similar Copal shutter (http://pheugo.com/cameras/index.php?page=copal). I open the shutter and the cocking mechanism it seem to work fine. The problem appears to be in the blades. The blades seem to be tight: when I activate the shutter it hasn't the strenght to move the blades lever. Since I never have repaired a camera before I don't have any clue of how to identify the problem, disassemble the shuttter or repair the problem I will appreciated any help. Best regards P.S: Sorry for my lousy english. |

Aparece que necesitas un limpia del obturador (shutter). Use fluido de alumbrador de cigarillo o aerosol de limpiador de electronicas (el que seca seco, no grasosa). |
