Hi All! I found this poor little thing at a church rummage sale for 50 cents US. I just couldn't stop myself   I always carry a couple of batteries around "just in case", and found that the flash on this one actually works! I've had 2 or 3 of these, and this is the first one I've found with a working flash. More to follow........ Doug |

But apart from the flash?

Seeing the condition it's in, it DID work...:-)

Hi Guys! What I usually carry with me (in a small bag) is a couple of AAs, AAAs, a 675 button, some LR44s, and a 625 adapter. This one takes an AA for the flash, and a 625 for everything else. I put the new batteries in and the shutter, meter, and flash all work. It just looks really funky. I've been disappointed on more than one occasion, that's why I carry my little battery bag  Doug |

Hello again! I have another one of these in much better condition, but with a bad capacitor. I've decided, therefore, to take the one out of the beat up camera to fix the better one. It's right under the bottom cover and easy to get at. It will be an easy fix Doug |
