Hello, I am searching for help:
What could cause extreme stiffness in rewind lever?
There is too much tension and causing ripped sprockets, therefore not allowing for full frame advancement of film. I can move advance lever maybe half-way then it rips and does not move film forward the entire frame.
This happened suddenly, and again on a test roll i just tried. But not on every frame.
Also, worth noting- the rewind lever does not move smoothly in any direction now, even to rewind.
Any suggestions gratefully welcomed!
thanks
