I am looking for repair manual for Mamiya 7 II. In particular I am concerned with the release cable socket. I broke it off and some part was left inside. I would like to disassemble and reinstall it.
Part of the threaded part is broken off in the release cable socket? Without any of the plunger? Is there no way to use a tiny wood screw of something to grab onto the hollow threaded part the cable release?
On the Mamiya 7, the release socket is simply attached to the top cover with a brass nut. So that nut is what you are hearing rattling around in the camera.
Hello, the exact same thing happened to me as well several month ago, but I left it as it is though now I need to use the cable release.. The silver bit came off, luckily I found it in a camera bag..
If you need professional help, Bob at Precision is the guy for big stuff: he's probably the only repairman in the world with all the Mamiya 7 parts. But expect a long wait.
