the switch at the top right hand side of the body is set in the middle
Any hints, having a look at the instructions and from what im reading the body is fucked if its not fire at that point. Im guessing no film in it doesnt matter or I dont think it shouldn't anyway.
..sorry, it's been a few years since I last used an RZ, but looking at the manual -

Make sure there is an empty spool in the take up area, turns the silver cog around and also by pushing it down causes the film counter to go from S >>>>> 1 once you've closed back again and started winding it. Sometimes you can trick it if you don't have any spare spools with a small piece of plastic and some low tack tape.
RZ's are pretty damn solid, all metal construction in the film transport and cocking mechanism side. Most likely its because of above OR on of the pins that indicates mechanically to the mechanism that.... lens is fitted, back is fitted, dark slide out, film is loaded, counter is off S position etc has got a bit bent or jammed with a tiny piece of film backing paper or dried up grease.

Anyone with some Mamiya RZ67 experience.
The camera won't fire the the switch at the top right hand side of the body is set in the middle. It's as if it doesnt cock fully but fires ok on M and you can recock the shutter fine.
