Hi everybody!
Just about 8 weeks ago I got my TL120 directly from China! I ran about
6 to 8 films through it and everything worked perfect. I could frame
beautyfull pictures! All the time I took perfect care of the baby, but
today after shooting two rolls of film, I checked the camera and
released the shutter (after cocking it, of course!) during the camera
back was open: Only the right shutter fired. There was no reaction on
the left shutter. I checked the batteries and they were fine. The
right shutter responses correct on the different shutter speeds,
except for the "B" position. On "B" also the right shutter is working
incorrect - it stays open and closes only after cocking the shutter
again! Any ideas how this could happen? Is there a simple solution for
this problem or do I have to send the camera back to China? This would
really get on my nerves. It allready took me two month to get this
one, because the first one got lost during shipping to Germany!
Kind regards to all of you, Chris (from Berlin)
