mervynyan Posted December 9, 2012 Share #1 Â Posted December 9, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Inhave been shooting M and R9 for many years, mostly gets by ok. I went out with R9 today and wind lever got stuck. I was able to rewind the film but the lever cannot advance the film. Tried replace battery, didn't solve the problem. Â Any ideas?

Sandokan Posted December 29, 2012 Share #2 Â Posted December 29, 2012 Did the shutter release? Â Isnt there a multi-exposure lever you can use to see if shutter gets re-cocked? Â Do you have a motor winder to test with (it will tell you if the fault is in the lever or in the mechanism)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Nippon Photo did a free quick check, I was told the problem is the aperture control spring in the body is too weak, so the aperture ring lock up. Need to send to Leica NJ for serving.

jaapv Posted January 8, 2013 Share #4 Â Posted January 8, 2013 That may well be a repair that exceeds the value of the camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
