It seems that the meter in my Zenit 212K has decided not to cooperate with me any more. The top or bottom diod in the viewfinder wants to stay on regardless of the shutter speed or F-stop. It just decided to do that all of a sudden. I attempted to adjust the variable resister under the DIN dial on the top left of the camera, as I did with my Z12XP, but I found the Z212 uses a different setup. Am I correct, can the meter be adjusted through the screw hole on the upper left of the camera. I tried it, but it doesn't look as though it's slotted for a jewler's screwdriver. Any suggestions, apart from "get a real camera!"
