I've attached a few of my favourites from my first roll with the Pentax MX (shot on kodak colorplus 200). They are altogether in one Imgur link Imgur: The magic of the Internet - I was wondering if anyone had any critiques/feedback for next time? :)

Hi,
I recently purchased a pentax MX from eBay. I am very new to film photography and this is my first 35mm camera (or camera in general). The camera is obviously quite old and does not function 100% (self timer leaver is broken, some minor dents or rust). The seller also mentioned that he suspected there was a short since the batteries drain quickly. He sent two lithium batteries with the camera that were not new but when i tried them they did not work so i brought some brand new. They worked and I take them out whenever the camera is not in use to prevent unnecessary battery drainage, so overall they have probably been used between 30 mins-an hour but today while I was taking a photo they seem to have died as the LED lights are very dim and it is stuck on the bottom light. Does anyone know what would cause battery loss so quickly and if there's any way I can fix this myself? Thank you!
