I got my SP back today!
Added some camera leather to it. I got a gordy strap too but it didn't really match so I put it on the RC.
FP5 at 800... I think I overdeveloped a bit though (too much developer). very satisfied with the results though.
The negs look great, I think the spot meter is working. however i had the crank advance problem again when i got the camera back! i lost 4 or 5 frames. so i did the same fix i did before.

Since I got the camera back I have to be good and save money and not buy any more cameras for a while. I need to save up for my wedding. So my film kits are set for a while... I made a video about that too!

The new Look of your SP is really beautyful, the shots of your girlfriend are beautyful too. So do what you said, save your money and merry her

I intend to.
I am noticing some problems with the camera though, the CLA I thought would fix things did not.
1. The shutter speeds at the lower end are still audibly way slow at 1 sec, 1/2, and 1/4. I can't hear much difference at the other speeds so I'm left wondering.
2. Last night I heard a screw rattling around the base plate of the camera. There's a big mystery.
3. The worst part is that there's something obstructing part of the meter in the viewfinder. It looks like a blur when looking through it but if you move back it looks like the reflection of some sort of cylinder. I'm not sure what to do with that. I might be able to live with the first two problems but, especially having glasses, the view obstruction is a particular pain.
