Howdy gang! A coworker, Ashley, purchased a Honeywell SP500 at a thrift store over the weekend. Cosmetically, it's near perfect. No dents, no bright marks, all the paint is intact. The shutter is consistent, if not accurate, the film advance works well, the interior is clean. She paid $4 for it (count 'em, four)! But the mirror stays up. When I move a little lever out of the way the mirror can be pulled down, but it springs back up. Any thoughts on adjustments or simple repairs that may correct this? I'd really like to save this little beauty. (A big thanks to Mark for making the service manual available. Unfortunately, I'm just a bit too dense to make sense of it.)
