I'm new to this forum as a contributor. I'd like to thank you all for the knowledge that I've gleaned while lurking the last month.
These addictions usually start innocuosly enough...until one day you've got a Koni Omega in parts on the kitchen table, or your 7 year old daughter is caught explaining to her friend what 1/2 frame is and exactly WHY the pen EE is so cool...
A couple of weeks ago I picked up a Yashica Lynx 1.4e and proceeded to rip it apart and subsequently repair the stuck shutter, aperture mechanism and bent aperture control tab. I got it all cleaned up and back together. Everything works beautifully except for 1 goofy thing;
With new batterries the meter functions perfectly at all asa settings below 1/30. Any faster and the meter reads "OVER" at all settings. (I verified the meter with readings off my lunasix).
Does anybody have any ideas? I'm guessing carbon tracks or pickups...? I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks guys & gals,
Tostel
