Aquilasfx Posted July 9, 2022 Share #1 Posted July 9, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello I bought second hand this camera last year, after some learning months, I found that my camera has the iso dial frame where shows numbers not centered well as you can see from the image attached. I disassembled the camera back door arriving to the contacts and to the spring of the dial push button, but it seems that frame is not positioned in place with screws, it seems glued from outside. Can you please confirm this? Any suggestion to fix this problem? Welcome, dear visitor!

a.noctilux Posted July 9, 2022 Share #2 Posted July 9, 2022 If the ISO dial works, I'd not try to do anything. 1/3 EV or less has small effect on final pictures. Take it as it is then use it happily. ... Maybe if you can find another back door ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a problem of misalignment of the frame, I think can be possibile to rotate that part in some way, but I didn't figure out already how to do that. Is that glued?

Mute-on Posted July 9, 2022 Share #4 Posted July 9, 2022 Leave it alone. You will very likely create new, more serious, problems by trying to solve a very minor cosmetic aberration. Don’t ask me how I know …. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilasfx Posted July 9, 2022 Author Share #5 Posted July 9, 2022 At the end I contacted newoldcamera where I bought, and they offered to free repair it in September (the camera is still in warranty). 🙏🏻☺️ maybe it’s OCD, but sometimes I wrongly put the iso that I wanted because of that not alignment (unconsciously) 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry my sense of humour. One of the symptoms of OCD is getting everything in it's correct order. OCD does not follow alphabetically so should be CDO.
