How easy/painful/impossible is it to repair a dead 80s point and shoot film camera?
Its totally dead, owner says it stopped working one day. Should i buy it anyways to see if i can get it back from death? Its a cool camera.

its the autowinding, self focusing, full auto type.
There could be any number of thousands of possible things wrong with it. Nobody here can tell you how easy or not it will be to fix it.

im curious about them too, thinking of buying a broken t4 and then getting it repaired
The only person who is more stupid than the person selling broken shit, is the person buying broken shit.
Save your ruppies and buy something off eBay from a reputable seller, that works.

Just buy a new one. They're not that expensive.

how much is the guy charging?
anyways, reading some about this camera, i learned that the flimsy part of it is the moving parts. full dead camera means probably a broken powering cable, otherwise itd be acting funny, but not totally dead.
im getting it for $20. next price for a working one is $200.

I hope you buy that piece of shit and you can't get it to work dumbass. Then remember this thread and how smug you felt trying to talk back when in reality you just proved you're an idiot.

guys charging 20 dollars, all it needs is a new lcd
>>2719419
so it does work?
it does not have much of a menu anyway.
there are just 4 or 5 automatic modes; just remember which is in which position and you don't need the lcd.
