A little case history: I was hit by a bus & my camera took a bang on the corner of the rewind lever side. Subsequently, I've had the camera serviced 3 times because of the meter. It works fine, and then for no apparent reason is off 3 stops. This consistently has happened after each servicing to address this problem. Note: each time I've had the camera serviced by a different company & I brought it in once & mailed it out on the two latter occasions. Could UPS shipping shake it up enough to cause problems? 4 questions: (1) Where's the best place to go for servicing? (2) Has any one else had problems of a similar nature with the meter? (3) Does shipping out the camera for service compound the problem by shaking the camera up too much? (4) How often do you recommend sending in the camera for a tune up? Thanks Frederic
