There has been a thread about this before - https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/nikon-f-prism-doesnt-attach-securely.72152/ - but it's long dormant.
I have the same issue. The eye level finder clicks into place but only, it seems, at the back. The front rises about 1-2mm. It doesn't fall off but it isn't right either. It feels like the front pin is just not engaged by the latch. The latch itself seems pretty straight and not obviously bent up in the middle like the one on the previous thread. If I take the focusing screen out, it latches better and sits flush with the body. But I can still pull the front of the finder up and it will move.
Have any members got experience of this and any possible solutions/advice to offer?
Thanks
