Mine starts counting at frame 27, counts to frame 38 (?), then
returns to frame 37 when the back is opened. I have heard that I
will need to lift the top cover to fix it. It is pretty low on
the list of priorities, as I have half a dozen other bodies that
work perfectly, including 3 LX.
I checked on of my "dead" MX's last night. It seems that it has
decided to return to life. The meter seems to be working again.
I just can't remember if it is the one the shutter calved on or
not.
