Hi Guys...

 

I recently picked up a brand new M-A and I feel the shutter release is a bit notchy.  When pressing down on the shutter release, I can feel there a slight click and roughness from the shutter button interacting with the film advance.  

 

I haven't experienced this on any of my other film M cameras.    

 

I know I can just return it to the vendor but I thought I'd ask you guys here before I exchange it out.  If others are like this, then I won't bother getting another unit.

 

Thanks for your thoughts :)

I have never owned a new M film camera before I bought the M-A so I can't comment on how they feel.

 

I have, however, owned a number of used M film cameras and there is no doubt that my M-A is at least equal to or better than any of them.

 

One of my criteria for keeping the M-A was that the shutter had to feel at least as good as my M3.

 

It does.

 

Rough, notchy? Those terms do not ring a bell.

 

Silky smooth! Seductively smooth! Addictive. Those are the thoughts that I equate to my M-A shutter action.
