<p>I've tested the camera at slow shutter speeds and it seems to be functioning well. There doesn't seem to be any problem with the aperture. Is the battery light even supposed to be red? In the manual it says green!<br> Very confused! I've shot a roll of film now, so I'm going to get it processed next week.</p>

Thank you for your responses! I have read through the manual and familarised myself with the camera but I am worried because I spoke to someone who sell Bronicas and they told me that this may signal a circuit issue. I hope this isn't true but maybe you are right, I will take the camera apart and do some tests with the battery. The battery definitely drains as I can only use the default shutter speed of 1/500, so I don't think the button is stuck :/

Hi guys, I recently bought a Bronica ETRS on eBay. I bought a new battery as the battery supplied with the camera was clearly dead as the led light didn't appear when I pressed the battery checker button. However, when I replaced the battery the led light indeed did show up, however it won't turn off. The light seems to just stay on until the battery drains. Does anyone know what the problem might be? I've checked all the parts, the mirror does seem to be very dusty. Any help would be much appreciated, I wanted to use my new Bronica for a shoot tomorrow :( This is also my first medium format camera, so I have limited knowledge about them! Thanks, Tasha
