Hi guys, I recently got a Konica Autoreflex TC from my grandfather but the shutter fires when I wind the film, I am new to film photography and don't know much about it yet so if this is a common problem sorry. Here is a video of the problem
 
This problem is not unheard of. Unfortunately it makes using the camera a practical nightmare. It should be repaired if possible. It has become much more difficult to have mechanical cameras repaired as experienced repairman and parts have become much more difficult to find.
 
Hi, is there any way to do this repair by myself, I don't have a camera repair near me
 
Yes, remove the lens and slip on a new, working body.

:)

Afraid these guys are right. Rick Olesen's site has a hand drawn diagram but unless you have had experience, success in repairing the later auto cameras is difficult, so much stuff in there.
