Posted on Monday, November 13, 2006 - 04:44 am:        I haven't been able to find any useful repair information on the web so I decided to write this post. I've bought through ebay a Kiev 6s two years ago. It worked perfecly. I've lend my K6S to my sister. She bring me back a broken camera... I think that she had tried to rearm shutter in the same time she fired for a photo. Now it's all locked except the fire button and the mirror. I think that somewhere in the camera a shutter has hooked the other one locking also the winding mechanism. I've tried to remove top and look inside following also the "Russ Hippert's Kiev Kalibration site" but I'm afraid to screw off the wrong part and find lot of springs bouncing on the floor. Does anyone know where to find a disassembling method or complete exploded view of entire camera? Thank you!   Glenn Tinkerer Username: Glenn Post Number: 105 Registered: 07-2006 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

The top will come off without a cascade of loose parts and springs, other than that I cannot offer any more positive help. The Pentacon Six being my 'brick' of choice.
