Hi John,
I'd appreciate knowing what the seller says to you in regards to this being
repaired.
I sent a question to her a couple of days ago and have just now received a
response - she says it has been repaired. But I'm not convinced.
I returned the camera to her 3 weeks ago. Yes, it could have been fixed in
that time but I wonder what the repair would have cost? Maybe John H could
give an estimate of a repair to the flexible circuit board under the meter
buttons? Others on the list wrote to me when I asked about this camera and
advised a problem like that would be uneconomical to fix...
