thanks for the reply, sadly the 645 is still inoperable

Comment by lxmike posted on Pentax 645 help needed, shutter will not fire or advance film to 1st frame at 25/03/2015 - 19:06

bought what I thought was a really clean 645, l have put fresh batteries in, it powers up i.e lcd screen and the red reading in the view finder but l cannot get it to load the film to the first frame, l have loaded the 120 film correctly but when l depress the shutter button nothing happens, l'm gutted and in the need of help

many thanks Mike

My Pentax MX winder has decided to die or rather half die on me, it works in continuous mode but not in single frame advance mode. Is there any where in the Uk that is good for repairing such items

thanks for any help
