Just a little encouragement. I have had some very nice results from mine and the shutters in these cameras seem to be very accurate and robust. The aperture though can be a bit tricky. Check to see the the needle trap mechanism is not part of the problem. You can adjust this externally if you remove the small coverplate on the camera's end just near the meter window. I use a couple of sewing needles held in a pair of pliars to remove this. There is and accessible adjusting screw once this cover plate disk is removed. The meter still works in one of mine but the other is purely manual. If you remove the top cover the screw is easily accessible. For a friction tool I simply glued a piece of old bicycle tube to a bottle of the right diameter (approx 38mm) Hang in there. Howard |
