I picked up a Baldafix folder in nice condition for a fiver. All speeds function ok, but having set it onto the B-setting, there is a definite resistance returning it to the other range of speeds. Some force must be used to get the cocking lever to return, and for the shutter blades to close. Is this normal on this camera, or does something need to be done?
