Anyone know a disassembly/repair guide online? Seeing as there are tonnes of camera pdf's online, I was wondering if the parts catalog could also be found online showing disassembly etc.

My 65C which I didnt notice before since I used it mostly in lower light levels shutter speed is kinda around the same as 1/15th setting for all faster speeds, and mirror lock up doesnt work (lens stays open exposing film, and closing th mirror lock up switch merely closes the shutter but doesnt fire it).

Otherwise its fine, not sure if its a recent development but my shoot the other night with it came out good.

Hi mate. Have you pulled an RB lens apart before? Do you still need help? I dont have a manual, however i have some experience pulling these things apart down to the shutter, cleaning, and putting them back together. It sounds like a jammed timing lever inside the shutter assembly.

Email me at rankin_corey@canon.com.au, and cc in cor55@tpg.com.au and I'll see if I can help.

I've spotted quite a number of Mamiya RB/RZ 6x7 lens repair manuals on ebay from a US seller recently - might be worth a search...
