If i advance the film and let go from the lever the camera takes picture right after that (without me pressing shutter release button). Sometimes it happens, sometimes not. And frames are lost...
What causes that? Any advice?
thanks

Just a guess- I think the shutter might not be fully cocking, so that when you let go the lever the shutter is not latched and it fires. this is generally caused by wear in the linkage, it may or may not be something you can reach under the baseplate.
