Fantastic, followed you through and learned such a lot, i collect cameras and on my table was the Minolta XG-M i started to take the top of as it isn’t firing the mirror is down but the actuator leaver/ advance lever cocks but appears not to engage. Great little tips, taping the black button, nifty little door remover, angling the Minolta badge as ive had issues on others with that, Pentax have a slim little bar that fits underneath or on top but great tip and all the tightening levels, plus the screw types. If you have any ideas on what the reason for not firing i have the bottom off and have had Ricoh XR 10 where the actuator had somehow got out of sequence, and others that had release lever in pentax super renowned for the lever next to lens box, but this has me foxed. Subscribed now so you may have covered it , but i love the detail and pace. Regards David
Sorry, I don't know what is wrong with your XG-M. It's neaerly impossible to fix cameras through comments. I have to see the camera and test it to understand the problem.
