Ok, it's magically working fine again but I can still open it up and point stuff out.


Thank you for this. I got this camera from my grandfather after he passed and I always wanted to fix it.

Just wondering, I have the 50mm M 1.7 on my ME Super just now. Is the 1.4 much better in terms of image quality?

What I generally hear is that the 1.7 is basically the same as far as sharpness is concerned, but the bokeh isn't as pleasant. If you aren't worried about shooting in the lowest light possible or anything like that I don't think the 1.4 really gives you anything.

Ah ok. I tend to shoot at 1.7 quite a bit, Scottish weather is usually terrible.
