When I clean my room, I found my canon A-1 (I though it was lost last 10 years). The camera still works, but after several trials, the shutter sound is getting louder and the mirror movement becomes a bit sticky.
I want to CLA this camera. Can someone tell me where should I open and what I need to care? |

Hello
The Canon A1 is not one to start on, the base is easy, the top a bit more difficult,the Mirror box (very difficult and not worth the effort )get another camera.
Your problem with the Mirror may well be that the Buffer has got very sticky.
The shutter noise is likely to be the grease on the small flywheel. Try http://rick_oleson.tripod.com/index-157.html
or search on here for Canon shutter squeal.
Hope this will be some where to start |
