I've been having problems with this camera, I think somehow at production level the pentaprism was misaligned so the mirror was adjusted respectively to compensate for the mis-focus the viewfinder therefore was really dark at the top. This annoyed me although the films came out fine, so i decided to take it apart in the process of trying to figure if it was actually the pentaprism, the light meter started to act funny. The meter blinks for a short period of time, and then goes off. Sometimes it would come back and work for 5 seconds and then go off again. What could it be? and is there a service manual for this camera?
