Hi Everyone,

The milled film speed knob (with the ASA markings on the top surface) on my FTn finder will not stay attached. I'd like to re-install it securely but don't know how. Does anyone here know the correct way to do this?


Thanks!

CJ

I have a knob complete with screws. If you send me your postal address I will send it to you. Alternatively you could do what I did with my non-functioning Photomic FTn and that was to strip it down to the bare optical parts and make a new cover. See attached pic.Nikon F prism
