Product code: Canon A-1 popular
Canon A-1. for parts or fix. popular the film advance won't advance unless you release the shutter magnet from the inside of the camera. i opened the camera and determined that it needs a new magnet (shown and circled in the last photo), which runs at about $15. i tested it with two different batteries, and both made the camera and the light meter function until the film advance lever was advanced and the shutter button got stuck. if you're good at fixing cameras this one should be a super easy fix! feel free to ask any questions.
