[QUOTE="SelfishCyclist, post: 2825, member: 1203"] Just an update to my own thread: several web sources tell me that the culprit for an FE not firing at other speeds other than M90 is the meter batteries. I did replace these when I got the camera and the battery check lever indicates that they are ok and my meter works fine. The camera does fire at all other speeds without the winder if advanced manually with the advance lever. I am going to switch the polarity and/or replace them again and see if this corrects the problem and allows the winder to fire at other speeds. Just so that you are aware, bad batteries will cause the same issues on an FE2, that camera has an M250 setting vice an M90 setting on the FE. [/QUOTE]
