    Description

    I am an unusual ebay seller in that I shutter test and meter test the slr’s I sell.
    The FA meter closely matched my digital camera at various light levels, bright/dim all are working well. The shutter tested excellent too.
    B is correct, 1- 1000th are all within about 1/3 stop which is excellent.
    Fastest speeds of 2000th, 4000th
    are running 3/4 and, 1 1/3 stop slow.
    Slow top speeds is very typical of pretty much all vintage 35mm focal plane cameras.
    This pattern usually starts cropping up at about 250th.
    This shutter is better than most since it’s excellent up to 1000th.
    And furthermore print film can easily tolerate 1 stop overexposure, so even the top speed are usable.
    Foam seals around door and mirror are worn.
    Mirror foam is gummy but not affecting mirror action.
    It's interesting to get online and start reading about the need for foam seals being replaced at a certain time, you get all kinds of beliefs,
    videos who say they can show you how to do it for .
    Bottom line here is the camera has worn foam seals.
    You might Google: are light seals really necessary……how important are light seals…
    ~?~
    The screw on eyepiece “receptor” is damaged.
    I don’t have a eyepiece to test for it’s viability.
    Door shuts firmly and correctly, film advance rolls/turns smoothly.
    Self timer works, prism view has minor scattered dust, no cracks or chips or fungi.
    What you see is all I have here.
    No reserve.
