Hi Pentaxians,
After looking on here I thought the ME F would suit me with its' 1/125 flash speed, 1/2000 to 4 seconds shutter speeds, clearly
marked exposure compensation dial and neat lights and info. in the bright viewfinder.
I inserted 4 Camelion Silver Oxide SR44s in the clean battery chamber but this sparked up nothing. I checked the batteries and
cleaned the contacts with 99.9% Iso and tried out different lenses. Sigh...
The camera is in really nice nick and I bought it as a package with a 280t flash, 50mm A 1.7, 35-70mm macro(ish) A 3.5-4.5,
polarising and skylight filters and a neat camera bag. I also have a Pentax 200mm 2.5, aTamron 90mm 2.5 macro with extension rings,Tamron 80-210 3.8 etc.. My grand plan was to use some lenses on my Canon 650d with the new Vello adapters.
If only I can get the ME F working. It could be simply a loose wire easily found by removing the baseplate or the entire exposure meter could be in any state whatsoever!
I could ask for a refund if needs be but I only paid £36.78 and 18.79 shipping from France.
Please help me get the ME F working if poss!!!! I have never disassembled a camera before:

Many thanks
