Edward, thanks for your words of reassure. In desperate doubt, I'd go to Olympus, but there's no such need. I respect their engineers and their time, especially, that they have produced a repair manual with not only if-then troubleshooting, but also with an extensive description of camera function and the logic and sequences behind. I believe this is enough not only to re-engineer the circuit, but also to copy the original... As for now I have my parts camera, revived my old XA with parts from it and am working on a breadboard prototype - the shutter fires, that's something already. Pity, that the parts camera has a shot viewfinder glass and damaged shutter speed indicator (still takes photos though, so perfect for such scrap project). Marek |
