I have a Nikon FG with a Kiron lens. The shutter on my camera is jammed, and I can't figure out what is wrong with it. It's fairly old, so I don't really know what to do with it. It would be great if you could email me with any sugestions instead of posting them on the forem. Thanks for the help in advance.

I just bought a used Nikon N50 and the word ERR and Min is flashing in the screen. Can someone tell me what this means and/or how to rectify it? Thanks, Michelle Grzyb

Hi Gilles: I haven't found it yet, but I have managed to find a place where you can BUY the information for $30!

http://webstore.ansi.org/ansidocstore/product.asp?sku=ISO+6053%3A1979

still looking for a better offer..****** OKAY, found a copy of a drawing: http://www.photo.net/bboard-uploads//00G8Mk-29550984.jpg

It's hard to read, but this may be as good as you're going to get unless you pay the $30 for a copy of the ISO 6053 standard that defines it. One last update: Now that I've managed to read the drawing, I find that the thread pitch is not on it, nor is the taper angle. Not much help. Just by inspection, plus what I can get off of the drawing, it appears to be .156" diameter at the large end (mine measures only .136), 50 threads per inch, with a taper of 10 degrees per side.

Hi Steve:Regardless of the answers to your other questions, you are not going to get your FE2 fixed in 10 days. If you need a camera that fast, buy the FM... it's an excellent body and will never suffer electronic failure. It may be that your FE2 can be fixed for significantly less than its value; I'd go ahead and send it in for the estimate. In the end you may wind up with two great Nikons, and you can choose to keep both, give one to your son or sell one to recover some of the costs. There is a company in India making replacement rewind knobs for the FM, which I think should also fit the FE2, so that shouldn't be a problem. If worse comes to worst, a donor camera can probably be found for the part.

My son is taking a high school photography course and needs to use a 35mm camera, not a digital. I have an FE2, unused in several years, in the closet. Got it out, and when you push the shutter button nothing happens. The shutter will only open and shut on manual, bulb and M250. Took it to a local camera store. The owner put a new battery in it and the situation did not change. The shutter will open but not close. I think the metering is off.

Question is whether there is some "fail/safe" on the camera body that is keeping the shutter from working, like a lever open or shut or somthing else, or whether the camera has had it.

The only other issue is that the body is missing the rewind crank. One of kids must have played with it, when they were little and were poking around in my closet.

I have two issues: one, is there something keeping this from working that I should know about
The camera store says he has to ship the body to Atlanta and get an estimate. What is the value of this camera and does it pay to fix it? The camera store has an FM body for sale and I have the 52mm lens and a Vivitar 70-150mm telephoto lens and both would fit the FM but I hate to buy something and just give up on the FE2. However the kid needs a 35mm to use in about ten days and I have to either fix this, buy a new one or borrow something somewhere. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks, Steve

OOps. Just posted this to the wrong forum. Take two:

I have an EM that seems to have a battery problem. After following the intructions on the site, I got the meter working, but after leaving in a drawer for a couple weeks, I can't get it to work again. Meter problem? Battery problem? Is there a trick to getting the meter to start up? Any advice would be appreciated.
