The Olympus OM-1 SLR camera, which takes 35mm film.

Shutter is stucl & film doesn't advance

The shutter is stuck mid cycle. The film advance lever moves normally, but does not advance the film. Also, the shutter button cannot be depressed, Can this be easily and inexpensively fixed?

It's an Olympus OM-1

@davidkoch27704 let's start off by having you look through the service manual. Olympus OM 1 For the film advance, take a look a the explosion drawings and see how the gears etc. are attached. After that, check page 26 and move onward with that. Let us know what you find.
