Dear forum members!

I wanted to let you know my F is as new. I was even considering selling it and purchasing a brang new F, while it was still available. At the end, I found a place where a guy replaced the bottom plate for 15 USD. What is more important, I am really calm, I love my camera once again.

One more thing. To be sure he will be able to see the damage, I put one more small scratch on the old plate. He covered it with a marker. I will list in on ebay. If someone is interested to buy it cheap, let me know.

Thank you everyone who replied to my post.

I am glad things worked out. Paying a guy 15 USD for this is a no brainer to me too.

Knowing what you know now, could you have reliably done the repair yourself?

It would be a thing to tell my grandkids. But no, I let the work to a professional. Many of his clients were professional photographers, with real gear.

Thanks for the reply
