Broken Nizo.

Post by donald »

My nizo 800 has a problem, Ive just discovered that the lens is slightly loose in its fitting, you can move the lens around. I tried taking off the side cover, and i found two screws, which i have tightened, the lens fits a little better but not much. Secondly, Ive just discovered i cant use the lightmeter anymore, the needle doesnt move when i use the dial, neither does it move when i do a battery test. It seems as though the camera has taken a knock somewhere sometime in the last week. it was fine a few days go!! Anyone got any ideas about whats wrong? I am still awaiting my first ever roll back from processing. The camera cost me 35 ounds, so it was cheap, if repairs will cost more i could buy another camera i suppose but Nizo's and canons are usually expensive.

I just got a nizo proffesional throught the post, the light meter appeared to be no working, I opened the side pannel, and taped the housing a bit an it now seems to work, just waiting to get my film back. So you may be able to fix the light meter problem easily.
