TPF Noob!
Greetings, I have a Canon F-1 ( early, long throw ) and the meter stopped working. It did work since I have had it, but it was sitting for awhile, now it does not. I put a new battery in it, no luck. I gave it a good smack, no luck. There is no obvious corrosion in the battery compartment. I did check both batteries and the voltages were correct. 1.35 volts - and they are wein Mercury free. What I was wondering is, for a Nikon F2, I would send it to Sover Wong. Does anyone know of a Canon equivalent to Sover? Or, any ideas of what I could check? The meter does have movement when you move the camera controls, but does not show battery condition when at ASA 100 and 1/2000 so it is not frozen. I know that I could get another one for cheap, but like I said, I have had it a while and I tend to hang on to things. It certainly works without the meter, but it is kind of handy to have. TIA
