1st question -

have you put any film in it ?

"the shutter cannot be cocked when film is not loaded in the back, the use of the multiple exposure lever will however permit you to cock the shutter in such instances"


:)
 
2nd question

Have you left the dark slide in?
 
Sorry guys but are u trying to make a fun from me? :)
1. Thats what I'm saying that the camera is acting like there's no film in a back, but then I cant explain how it winds the film perfectly to the next frame. And yes I already shot two films in this crazy method when cocking shutter in multiexposure mode.
2. Of course, I put the cap on the lens, then locked shutter release button, put the darkslide in, threw away camera in the bag, spinned three times around my head cause i thought that how the camera works :D Seriously. I know that sometimes newbies have these crazy things happening when they dont know what is manual, but this is not the case :)

Not not at all, even the most seasoned of us forget things. The two replies are the standard questions you would be asked.

If you have a manual and followed the loading and attaching the back correctly and there is still something wrong, then it could be the back but the only way your going to find that out is trying another back.

I will have a look at my SQ-Ai tonight and see if there is anything obvious that may or may not be a problem.
 
Are you sure you're talking about the shutter and not the mirror?
 
Well if you know what you're doing Rokas, I doubt anyone can help you other than to say the back is a duffer.
If you plan on keeping the camera, get yourself another back, sometimes the pins get bent a little, the back and body don't communicate mechanically properly with each other, but its difficult to say without a working back to compare.
Personally, if its something I can't see, I wouldn't contemplate doing any internal "surgery" myself..:)
 
Yah that's what I thought, no more solutions then try other back. I was hoping that someone had a similar problem but from know I'm hoping no one gonna face the same :) Anyway gonna give answer when try another back :) Thanks folks ;)

Sounds like it needs a service . It doesn't sound like theres too much wrong so with a service you'll end up with a very useable mf camera or cut your losses and stick it back on ebay and hope to get your money back.
