A broken viewfinder cord on 67 body

[alex_b.]

The cord (the one that couples the f/stop setting with the TTL finder)

broke on one of my 67 bodies yesterday. I managed to get it out (about

two inches), but one part - the one that holds the attached

coupling pin in position, i.e. the part of the cord on the left side

if viewed from photographer's side - is still holding to the pin,

keeping it on the left. When I try to move the pin, it jumps back as

it would be on a spring.

 

I don't use the TTL prism, I don't even own one, so this is no issue

for me. But just to be sure - the cord has no other function than that

of TTL coupling, right?

That's right, but the loose cord might hang up on something inside the camera. I guess you could pay now to have it fixed or hope you don't have to pay later. <g>
