- Photos NOT OK to edit
When I was visiting my grandparents this weekend by granddad gave me his old Nikon FM camera, which is awesome! He did say he dropped it once but that it still worked afterwards.
I've been getting to grips with it all day and I've managed to load it with film, but after you press to take a photo and wind it on the bit that tells you how many photos you have left isn't moving from 36. Is the camera actually taking photos? Is it just that bit that is stuck? The film winds on fine, but I don't know if it's broken or I've done something wrong (I'm a beginner with film).
I'm also pretty sure it needs a new battery but i can't get the battery bit unscrewed!
Has anyone got any ideas? I've been googling but since I don't really know any technical terms or anything it's been tricky to find exactly the problem. Any help is much appreciated! :blushing:
