Hey,
I´m pretty new to analog photography and just bought a Olympus OM 1 from ebay. It makes beautiful images and I love to shoot with it.
Unfortunately there seems to be a problem with the advancing mechanism after I shot about 30 pictures.
My first developed film had a multiple exposure on the 31st frame. And no further frames where exposed even though I fully advanced the film when shooting. I figuered I probably did something wrong so I shot and developed another fully shot film. It also showed multiple exposed pictures only this time after 30 pictures.
I already called a camera shop that sells and repairs analog cameras but the support was´nt really sure and would send the camera in, already charging 40€, eventual replacements or repairs not included. Therefore I wanted to ask if someone had a similar problem and knows a simple fix and if a repair is needed what price would be appropriate.
Thank you and king regards,
