Posted on Thursday, June 26, 2008 - 03:07 pm:        I've got a problem with a mamiya C3. The film advance often sticks - it is failing to register that the shutter has been released. It'll just need a little oil in the right place I guess, but i'm having trouble working out how to get into the camera. Can anyone point me at a service manual?   Cesare Tinkerer Username: Cesare Post Number: 2 Registered: 06-2008 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

Dismantled, cleaned, oiled, now working really smoothly.
