Hi all, am extremely new to this camera (in fact to all cameras) - its an original 70's pentax k1000, and I noticed the other day that all of the appeture/shutter speeds I was choosing seemed to be curiously perfect according to the light-meter. until I realised that the lightmeter had actually just not been moving for the last day/film. It briefly started moving again and has stopped altogether now. Since the camera has not been mistreated in any-way and was bought relatively recently from the 'classic' camera shop, I would be surprised if this isn't some common problem that I simply do not know about because I am so uninitiated in this area -- the camera did not come with its original manual or documentation of any kind - hence this message. I would imagine there is some setting or something I have overlooked that can be switched back and re-activate the meter. Are there classic checks to do for such a problem? many thanks |
