<p>hi guys, your help is really great. so i opened the view finder from front and basically just took away the front cover to reveal the mechanical parts. i played around with the cog wheel of both aperture and shutter speed and what do you know i can see the +- signal lights flickering now even to a point i get a right exposure shown. so possibly its just a calibration or mechanical issues where the aperture wheel was only out of range. im asking myself now if i just inserted the lens wrong which seems unlikely? but @Christoper your comment about the twist makes me wonder though - maybe i have missed that. can you elaborate. </p>

<p>its a Nikon 28-45mm 1:45 174048 lens which has the "ears" and its properly locked so i guess it could be the resistor problem which i have also read about before. i will try to clean it than.<br> thanks for your help - explanation and the manual of course. hope i can review the viewfinder ...</p>

<p>Hello Forum,<br> i am happy to be here. i would like to reanimate an F2 with Photomic DP-2 Finder. The battery does illuminated the top indicator (very low red light though but hardly visible) and also i can see the exposure signal lights through the viewfinder when lever is pulled out. The problem: the exposure signal lights do not change regardless of aperture and shutter speed i select and change.<br> so reading about the battery issue i wonder if the battery i have is the right one and correctly working. its a Duracell DL1/3N 3V. may it be a problem of the battery or possible damaged exposure meter. any thoughts?<br> thanks</p>
