It's seven or eight years since Kennedy's wouldn't repair the advance mechanism on my Super A, a newer camera than an MX. I got it fixed at a local repair shop but it only gave two more years service. After that I pulled it off life support, because I'd almost spent its (2nd hand) purchase price in maintenance over its lifetime, and it's not so special a camera to merit more than that. Since then it's donated bits and pieces to other cameras. Know anyone who's after a Motor-A in "ugly" condition?
