Hi I recently got this Petri II and I can't seem to be able to look through the viewfinder at all... I even took the lens off to see but it seems like no light comes through whatsoever. I don't have a clue what to do and I'm no camera expert. Help please!

If you are talking about an FT II, which is an slr, it probably has the mirror stuck in the up position due to not completing the shutter cycle.
