  1. <p>Seems like the problem is has something to do with the film advance lever. If I hold it just past the 30 degree stand off the drive works just fine. Possibly to do with the circuit that activates the metering . </p>
  2. <p>Not sure this classifies as a true classic, but here goes anyway. I recentltly recieved a really beautiful MinoltaX-700 for free, from an old friend. Camera only needed batteries, and works like new. Now me, being me, I immediately started looking for some add ons. I found the "Motor Drive 1" online for a good price, and ordered one. It arrived yesterday, I put fresh batteries in it, and installed it on the camera. The only problem is that no matter what I do, it won't seem to work. It will advance one frame, and cock the shutter when I move the film advance about 5 degrees past the 30 degree stand off, but that's it. Does the camera need to have film loaded, or did I get a lemon? Thanks. </p>
