MTC Photography Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 <p>One of my BL has a faulty meter, I sent it to DAG,but was returned without repair, because parts are not available. I now use it like a Minox III</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minoxit Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 <p>Indeed this is what I am going to do with it. Some of my cameras are now at DAG, and, alas, Don is out of BL CdS spares. </p> <p>But...it's a pity we cannot replace the cells in these cameras. Real gems they were and using them cameras without built-in meter (as they were intended to be used) seems like downgrading somehow.</p> <p>Thanks for your kind input, Martin!</p> <p>Regards,<br /> JT</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8x11 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Andy Britten can repair some BL problems the usual repair is to replace the meter wholescale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Photography Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 <p>I asked DAG if BL meter part not available, is it possible to attach a Minox B meter housing to BL, he said its an interesting idea, he may give it a try. However, after a while he returned the BL un serviced. It looks like not an easy task after all.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minoxit Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 <p>Hobbies, I knew Andrew had some great skills with meter cells. I was trying to find his address, but it seems I lost it. I know he is someone in the vicinity of Andover, right?</p> <p>Would you care to send me his contact details, by email? Thank you, I really appreciate it!</p> <p>regards,</p> <p>JT</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
