I've recently purchased a Mamiya RB67 Pro S from a second-hand camera dealer and I've run into a problem. After shooting a roll this afternoon to test the camera I received back from Jessops a blank roll of film.
With the back on, but with the film holder out and the back open I can watch the inner workings. The light baffle is failing to rise on some occasions and on others is rising after the shutter has gone (using a slow shutter speed and pointing the camera at a bright light I don't see the a flash of light through the back).
Before I return this camera to the dealer I need a quick idea on whether it's something I am doing rather than a problem. Is there anything I could have done (or failed to do) that would cause this problem. I've checked the user manual and the service manual online and I can't find this described as a symptom.
