I just picked up a Kodak Panoram #1 today. It is pretty ugly and needs some repairs.

The lens will swing from one side to the other and lock in place, at least on one side. But I do not feel any resistance. Also, the shutter release does nothing. I am not sure how the mechanism is supposed to work but I feel that a gear is stripped.

Before I start tearing into this camera, does anyone have some close-up pictures of the internal mechanism? Can the mechanism be removed from the body of the camera?
