I have a Canon T70 and I have downloaded the manual to it, unfortunatly that didn't help my problem.. I can get the camera to change Modes, Manual/Automatic and ISO but when I push the shutter button down to take the photo nothing happens... Well it does show meter readings and a P blinking through the eye finder... Can you help...
Thanks

The T70 is a great film camera but it sounds like the electromagnet on magnetic shutter curtain release has failed. You can find another T70 body in excellent condition pretty low price on ebay. I think the repair cost would be double of a used body
Oops my bad.
It could be a jammed shutter. If you take the lens out and the film out. Take a few pictures and see if the shutter moves. If there is no movement I would take it into a camera shop and take a look at it. Unless the shutter spring is busted, it could be an easy fix.

I didn't plug in anything- It is an old film camera- I just can figure out why the camera will advance film when I put new film in it and it will rewind fine- I just can't get the shutter to take a photo- It will like I said before show me the meter readings and blink P so I know that it is working I just can't figure out what I'm doing wronge or if it is Broke...
Thanks

I took off the lens and removed film then tried to push the button down to take a photo and still no better results... What is this worth as is? I am planning on getting rid of it anyway--- Other than this the camera looks and sounds great---

Ok Thanks
What happens when you plug it into an electrical outlet?
