Right when I open the back, a little flat, metal feel off. Ohhh something is wrong ! Yes I'm right, there is something wrong ! The frame counter wouldn't advance after going thru a practice roll of film !! Its stuck between 35-40. Oh well ! I knew something like this was bound to happen. Its irritating but I will use it for the next 4 months without the frame counter functioning ! I will see what other possible problems might there be before I send it back to the dealer for repairs. I attached the 90/2.8 Tele Elmarit lens (skiny) borrowed from a friend. It focuses fine, near and far distance, vertical and horizontal, no problem ! The meter is fine also. Is it normal after taking a shot, without advancing the film the meter does not work until you reach the next frame ?? Luggers, any other things I should look out for in this time period & will the frame counter problem get worst if I continue using it ? Thanks, Ferdinand
