Hey all!
I've been using my fathers Pentax ME Super for ever now and recently it's started acting a bit odd in terms of winding. Ranging from once every 5 shots or so to every second shot, the camera does not fully prepare the camera for shooting in that it will advance the film but it won't release the shutter when I push the button. Is this a common problem with the ME Super? Is it easily repairable? I'm considering just buying a new body because this one is so beat up but the sentimental value and the fantastic shots it has made for me makes it hard to just pass on to the camera place in the sky!
According to my dad, it won't actually be "skipping" a frame due to some mechanism in the camera, but I find this hard to believe. I can't confirm it either as I send away all my films in batches of 5 so it'll be a while till I get the shots back.
Sorry to be nagging on my first post, but this has been dementing me since my trip to Austria!
Regards, Jack
