I had my Yashica 35 out for some exercise this past weekend. It's in near mint condition and I'd hate to beat it up now. The shutter linkage started buggering up Sunday afternoon. The shutter itself is fine. If I turn the camera to face downward and shake it a bit, it will start working properly again, but I guess something is loose in the shutter release train. Is the screw in the film advance lever left hand or right hand thread?
