Nikon L35AWAD - Rewind failure
I have a Nikon L35AWAD underwater compact that I picked up at a flea
market. Works fine except for the rewind lever, which is on the base of the camera. Turning the lever does not start the rewind, so I have to unload the camera in a dark bag. Is there a trick to getting the rewind to work (I don't have a manual), or is it simply a matter of turning the lever while power is on? Anyone have any idea of how difficult these waterproof cameras are to disassemble if I want to fix it? Thanks Glenn |

Thanks Glenn You will probably find a lot of "O" rings in it to keep the water out, and you may destroy some of them taking it apart....If you do, you can buy replacements from: The Bay Seal Company Address 1550 West Winton Avenue, Hayward CA 94545 |
