[QUOTE="SelfishCyclist, post: 3350, member: 1203"] Well, nothing to update here. I took the FE and both autowinders to Central Camera and talked to one of the salepeople there. Another guy there said "[I]bad meter batteries on your FE[/I]" and I replied "[I]Nought[/I]...but I had him replace them anyway. Same result..neither autowinder worked on the FE other than M90 setting. They had an FM-T body there at the store and I used both of my autowinders on that camera without a glitch, so my FM question is answered. Apparently the winder electronics on the FE are different than the FE2 and both FM and FM2n cameras. This would explain why a Soligor winder won't work on earlier models (although I suspect that it [B]would[/B] work on an FM since mine did). Still trying to run down a decent FM black body on eBay, they are getting ridiculously overpriced. Craigslist is even worse. [/QUOTE]
