Konica Autoreflex T2 jammed shutter

I'm looking for some help and advice. I have a Konica Autoreflex T2 with what I think is a jammed shutter. All was well with this camera until I wound the film on and now the shutter won't release. I've removed the base plate in case I could see something obvious but the workings I can see seem to be ok. Is this a job I can attempt to repair myself, and if so, does anyone have experience of this problem?

Thanks David. I came across this article before but I don't have the knowledge or experience to attempt this fix myself. The camera is in beautiful cosmetic condition but it will just have to sit on my shelf looking beautiful for the time being. Wink

Don't bother. You can get a like new body for next to nothing. In general, there are virtually no cameras it makes sense going into - there's just too much time, tools and skill involved.
