Hi, Rob, and thanks to all the other Brothers for your warm welcome. I finally fixed it, and you are right. It was the foam that was desintegrated. Luckily, I've some foamed tape (supposedly to put posters on the wall), cutted it to fit, and voila, it fits tight now. And it allowed the electric contact too. The only problem is that it seems the meter is waaay out, something close to 2 stops (I'll do some more serious tests later). It doesn't bother me too much, since I'll use my "serious" meter, my dear Gossen Lunapro F with that beast, to keep the package compact ;-) (seriously, 120 film is too expensive as to tolerate missing frames due to exposure errors). Regards
Albano If the prism rattles up and down then the foam around the base of the prism may have deteriorated as it should keep the assembly pretty tight, if so it's not difficult to cut some foam to fit. However this doesn't explain your metering problem, maybe the springs behind the electrical contacts on the prism have become weak?
