First of all I donīt know exactly witch model this is. It is a Tessar Jena so I believe it is before the war?
My problem is that the shutter button sometimes screws when shutting witch lead to sticking. If I screw it a bit then it will release but it will be the same after a while.
I have cleaned it and it got a bit better but not good.
I have not opened it yet.
What do you think? Is it possible to fix?
It is in good shape and take nice pictures except of this.

Try it with a cable release. I have one camera with this problem. I use the cable release and no problem. If the button sticks in I pull on the cable release.

I will try but most problem comes when I screw the cable realiser into the shutter button.
