My LX took an unfortunate butterfingered tumble landing rewind knob
first on a concrete floor. It's bent to the point it binds now. Shaft
it attaches to is fine, just need the knob assembly. Anybody have a
junker they can send the knob from, or a suggestion as to where else
to inquire about parts?
perhaps this is retarded, but I have an old ME-F that I've been saving
for parts because the battery cover is missing, and I bought it for
the lens anyways. If it would fit, I'll happily mail it to you for
shipping costs. If not, perhaps you can give these guys a call?
Hi all,
