I have bad news and good news. First the bad:

The camera needs servicing:
A. There is a small patch of fungus in the lens
B. The RF needs calibration
C. The shutter button has more resistance than you'd expect

The good:
1. Shutter is snappy, and the times sound good to the ear
2. There are no big dents or other signs of abuse
3. Aperture blades are good
4. Light meter does its thing (how good it does its thing I'm not sure- I don't use in camera meters)
5. Film spacing and advance is good (ask me how I know the RF needs calibration :wink: )
6. Focus is smooth

I love the 40mm focal length, and I got this in a trade- I thought i'd send this out to get fixed up but all the repair men are busy as busy can be.
