I tried the camera all seems to be working fine...AF works fast

Problem is that the viewfinder/ lced(metering) is blank/not working

Hopefully you were able to sort it out. If you didn't, a decent condition one isn't too pricey to acquire. Still have 3 7000's of my own, doing great albeit in horrid physical condition. Doesn't matter, takes pics. Haha.

Camera is working fine but i can't see the metering settings in the viewfinder...i shoot in Aperture priority...

I haven't developed the film yet but soon i guess we will have my first developed film (which i will scan myself)
