Does anyone have the parts list for the MD-11 or the MD-12? I need to know the part number of the main power switch, or... if anyone has one of these switches...

Just as I advanced the film & cocked the shutter, I reached the end of the roll so I took the film out & closed the door. Now my FG is locked up. I went to...

William, this is a great description! One question, in "Under the advance lever cover you'll find a retaining nut that requires a pin tool", does this nut...
Robby, All the screws are normal right-hand thread. Some Nikkormat screws are sealed with lacquer at the factory and are EXTREMELY stubborn to remove (mirror...
