Good morning. Oh my goodness where do I start? A friend of mine gave me her old Ricoh KR-5III with several differnet lenses and accessories. I found a manual online that is somewhat helpful with the basic functions and that is about it. I bought new batteries and loaded new film, but the LED lamps still do not show in the view finder. Anyone have suggestions on how I can fix this? I have taken the batteries out and replaced them, thinking I might have put them in wrong, but that isn't working. I am really excited about learning how to use the camera, but I am so lost on how to set things like shutter speed, depth of field, f value and so forth. I guess if I knew how to set these things, then I wouldn't need the LED lamps too much?
