Thanks.
Now, I got to get the jeweler's screwdriver set and the batteries and then read again the instructions for the programable back and do them both at the same time. I had it serviced without the programable back on it back in 95 and when it came back it was working great.
I replaced to standard back with the programable back and turned it on, and it died on the spot.
And I haven;t tried to get them both serviced.
But with these instructions, I can probably do it myself.
I really like that
camera and lenses, and I've taken some great photos with it.
It's big and bulky, and when I bought them in 1985, back then I paid over 3 grand for all of it.
But I've had a lot of fun with the set.
The camera and all the lenses and the cleaning kit and filters will fill up a kid's school backpack and is quite heavy.
But with the 28-85 lens and the 70-210 Lens, and the Macro Zoom 1x-3x lens, along with the standard 50 MM lens that came with it, it was great.
The thought of being able to use it again, is also great.
I may have to find another flash for it because I believe it suffered a battery leak and corrosion, and I've got the stand off shutter controller with about 15 feet of cable.
