Minolta Autocord Thanks to all who have responded to my plea. I will try to answer your questions in this single post. Richard Knoppow wrote: > I am not very familiar with the Autocord.

It has a crank, like a Rolleiflex, so you turn the crank forward to advance the film and back it up a quarter turn to cock the shutter. This is the sort of thing I mean, the shutter is not cocked directly but by means of some coupling to the crank. It is possible the shutter is not being fully cocked. Failure to trip but making a click is a typical symptom.
