Hi ALL,


Anyone knows any solution to the Nikon's F3 AE Lock button that ALWAYS jump off from the body? I bought a F3 recently and my repair man told my that this button fall-off frequently and NOW don't have repair.

Any suggestion?


Tks,
Carlos Nascimento

Do yo uhave an answer yet? I have the same issue w/ my F3.

I experimented to see if a thin wire inserted into the center of the mechanism would operate the AE lock function. It does. If I don't find an answer to this question, I may must try to make a replacement button out of wood or plastic or something.
