Thank you Francis_otto and Mndean for your responses! It seems that perhaps my battery is already weak even though I opened it less than 4 weeks ago. The BC position is usually in range when I first check it after not using the meter for a few hours, but after having it on for a bit the BC position is completely out of range...not very reliable. I've used the meter a few days ago and it seemed to be working fine again, so I don't know what exactly happened before I posted my message, but for now the meter seems okay. However, if my next roll of film comes out overexposed, I'll look into getting a hand-held exposure meter! Thank you again for your tips and advice, I really appreciate it and I'm glad there are other people who know about these things (seems that old film cameras are becoming more rare)! |
