I have a 25 year old ME (with winder ME II and 3.5/35-105 SMC-A) and and I must say that it is a very reliable camera indeed (must be because it�s so simple). After about 20 years it started to underexpose a bit but that was cured with CLA - the only one it has had. It (and the winder, too) is very frugal on batteries, probably on its 3rd set ever. I has not seen very much use because it is my back-up but compared with it LX and ME Super are unreliable. All the best! Raimo Personal photography homepage at http://www.uusikaupunki.fi/~raikorho
