ANOTHER question 'bout a Minolta 7s...
I got this camera for basically shipping charges, and it's in pretty good shape. Found batteries, and the meter functions pretty well. The shutter is sticky, and sometimes (no discernable pattern) refuses to open. Repeated cycles and/or changing settings prompts operation again.

The question is: Since I cost me nearly nothing, I'm not scared of trying to get to the shutter and free it up. Anybody have a schematic and/or instructions they'd like to give me so I can try? I'm still not sure I want to...I'll sit around cycling the shutter for a few days to see if it becomes more consistent before I make a decision...

Regards!
Don
