Nikon L35AF Shutter Button Problem

6 years 2 months ago #562401 by iKokomo
I just got a very nice condition Nikon L35AF for $1 at an estate sale with the original case.
I put the two batteries in the camera (with no film)and turned it on and the light meter seemed to work. 
Here is the problem. When I clicked the shutter button down, the shutter clicked but the button stays down. It is not stuck up, like most problems are, but the button is stuck down and will not come back up.
Has anyone else had this problem before? 
Thank for your help in advance.

Have you removed batteries? If its old, expect issues. For a buck, display it as an art piece if you can't get it working.

Why so serious?

Or, if you want it working, look into sending it to an authorized service center for a refurb.

I used to have one of these. Great little classic.
This guy has a good article on it including a link to the users manual you can download:
