Time was, you wouldn't see a plastic drive gear in $300 body let alone a $3500 one

I remember the Pentax K1000 which was a cheap DSLR at the time ($120) and it had a gear like that that would strip. A problem OM-1n's and Nikon FE's didn't have. Meanwhile... https://www.dpreview.com/news/914199...-5d-iv?slide=7 My 40+ year old K1000 still works just fine, as does my even older Yashica Electro35. However, the K1000's faux leather case has fallen apart to reveal its cardboard heart. -- Regards, Savageduck |
