Originally posted by Heldur Hi,
I just bought a ME-super (so much smaller than the K1000 I have!) and everything seems fine except the winder lever does not always return fully to its resting place against the camera body (It will return no problem if I manually push it back without using much force)
Is this an easy fix? or is it something I should just leave as-is seeing I only paid $10 for the camera body? Like I said it sometimes retracts back by itself if I use more of a flicking motion as I wind the lever. And I havent tried the camera with film yet but I think it will probably work.
Anyone can give me advice about this? many thanks

The wind on lever of the ME and ME Super is the meter switch. When the lever is in the stand off position, the meter is powered up, when it is closed all the way it turns the meter off. Of course setting the control dial to Lock does the same thing, but the lever is easier to manage on an outing.
