Hey guys,

I just received an Exakta Varex VX and everything worked perfectly until suddenly the winding lever was blocked and couldnt be rotated all the way at any speeds other than B or T! The very long shutter speeds also stopped working. When I put it on B and wind the long speed dial, it will just release a short speed.

Does anyone know what happened here? It really worked perfectly before. I know the Exakta is a little difficult to handle, so Im hoping that Im just doing something wrong here...

Best regards from Germany,
Vincent
