Hi Folks, I ran one roll successfully through my new Mamiya 6, but while winding on a second roll the film advance lever jammed in the open position and won't move. I've tried changing the battery and pushing the little shutter release button with a paper clip to no avail.

There is some kind of locking going on, I think. I can collapse the lens mount, but I can't remove the lens.

Suggestions, observations, things to try?
