Thank you so much! My X700 started acting up just today, at first I thought it was the infamous capacitor, but the light meter and the beep sound worked. I could still shoot it turning the auto-winder port(?), but then I watched your video and noticed the shutter was only opening halfway, and now it's fixed! Thanks again!
Thank you for the awesome advice. Mine was capping halfway also and I did exactly what you did and now perfectamundo. It works great at all speeds. Thanks again bro.
Daaamn!!!! My Minolta was release shutter without film easily…with film after 2frames it stacked. Replaced capacitors - didn’t help…. Tried this one with gear and it helped Bless you man!❤
Hey Hansome, I wanted to ask that is it fairly easy to replace Sony a7iv hot shoe or do you have to disassemble most of the body to do it? And where can we find the replacement part? Btw really LOVE your videos!! SUPER HELPFUL never stop making these video 😊
Hi! Thanks for watching I'm glad you're enjoying the content. Unfortunately, the hot shoe on Sony cameras isn't as easy as Canon's R series cameras (like the R6). Because it's a smart hotshoe with connector pins, you have to disassemble basically the entire camera and you've got boards on top of the hotshoe screws. It's not a super common issue, so I don't get that repair very often, but I might make a video on it!
Just took a look at one I have in for repair for a different issue and I've found that it's easier to just replace the entire top cover than it is to replace the hot shoe. I recommend looking into that before going for the specific part.
@@klausphotobaer5754 yeah, unfortunately when I went to open up the camera it had way to much corrosion and wetness inside from the previous owner. Smelled terrible with that vinegar type smell and everything was fried from a bad battery being left in it.

Mine has an issue with the shutter not working and allowing me to wind the film advance. I replaced the batteries but still won’t work.
You have to replace the capacitor ( 10 uf, if I remember right ) . Have done this on several stuck 300, 370 … same with 700

Do you have a website? My minolta is having the same issue as the camera in the video. Do you still do repairs?
Yeah I do repairs every day! If you'd like, send me a message through my linktree. You can find it in the bio of my youtube profile.
Does the Minolta SRT 101 have the same problem / solution by any chance? Thank you very much!
No, the SRT 101 doesn't have the same issue.
SRT is completely different ( completely mechanical ) . Service Manual is available online
Can i do this exactly the same way on a x300?
The process is similar but the X300 does encounter a similar issue!
