First, after cleaning the ME and refoaming it (it looks really nice now, if I may say so myself), I realized I don't know how to test the shutter speeds, since it's an aperture-priority camera. With any other camera, I'd use my shop's shutter tester (uses a laser to record how long the shutter is open), but that won't work here. Aside from shooting a test roll while controlling the shutter speed via the aperture and maybe some ND filters, is there any way of testing the shutter speeds? I'd be willing to open up the camera, if there's some way of mechanically setting the shutter speed. See, I want to sell this body, but I wouldn't feel right selling it without knowing if it works properly.
Second, I need to clean some dust out of the 40mm pancake. I know there are people here who have opened up old lenses to clean them, so I'm just wondering how complicated something like this can be. If necessary, I can get my shop's tech to help me out.
Thanks, John Celio
P.S.: the new Beck album rocks!
