Just acquired a Contax TVS II and it went pretty well for a few months.
Then I started having problems with the shutter. The shutter button doesn't always respond. It goes on and off. When it happens, I turn off the camera - by turning the lens to off position - and while doing this the shutter works and I lose one frame. It might go the same wrong way for the next 3 frames or so and then properly work for a few frames before the same problem repeats itself. The battery is in good condition. The battery contacts are fine. What else?
In any case, someone (in USA or Canada) knows a tech to fix this problem?

Good question. I had a TVS and loved it. Used it for several years until it went crazy.
