Hi folks
New to this forum, so thanks for having me.
I recently bought a Nikon FG 35mm film camera and the film cover won't stay closed. It keeps popping open. The clasps/mechanism looks to be all there, so I think maybe somethings askew....not sure.
Has anyone had any similar experiences?
Luckily I haven't put a film in it yet. Having said that I have noticed that the LED lights in the viewfinder keep flashing in the same place (on either side of 125) no matter where I point it. Is that just because it hasnt got any film in it? or is it broken meaning I'll have to go without the meter's guidance?
Any tips on these issues would be much appreciated, as well as any general guidance to one who is new to photography and even newer to film photography.
Thanks!
