Hello everyone, I've been testing this camera I inherited but I'm having a problem with the shutter release cable. It threads properly, but when pressing it the shutter won't trigger. I tried pressing the pin with a wooden rod (thicker than the shutter cable pin) and it works, but I believe the shutter cable is too thin to press it without sliding. Does a camera like this need a different shutter cable or is this a problem with the camera itself?

Thanks for reading!
