Hi everyone,

I read through some other threads involving stuck rewind buttons, but none were quite what I've got here. The camera is an old AT-1 (1977), and the button got pushed in while it was unloaded in the bag. Since it's in, it won't advance, but it also won't snap a "picture" when I hit that button. (shrug) Both reels inside spin freely, and the battery seems to be good when I check it. Anyone ever had this problem?

Thanks,
- Toby
