It's a common problem, and easy to fix. There's a tiny mirror sitting on a flexible metal holder behind the aperture window, reflecting the light into the prism. This may either have fallen off, or just be out of adjustment. If it's fallen off, it's in there somewhere, and can be glued back on. In either case, it needs to be adjusted by bending the "stalk" it sits on until you see the aperture ring in the viewfinder. In other words, it shouldn't add much to the cost of a CLA. -tih -- Don't ascribe to stupidity what can be adequately explained by ignorance. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
