Problem for Ricoh KR-5 SUPER II 35mm SLR Camera

The film won't advance

By chotasmom on Jul 08, 2008

" "

Hi there, I don't know too much about cameras, but I do know the film is supposed to advance. Also, once I pull the film advance lever, I can't push the shutter release button. I got this camera 2nd hand, and it seems to be in great condition. I would love to be able to use it!
Thanks, Jamie

Look on the shutter release button, there is a lock switch on bottom of the button. turn it toward the prism.
