Interesting and justifiable...
I spent 6 hours fixing a 'wrecked' battery leaked corroded one last night, the shutter dial was 1/2 eaten with battery acid and fused together with the ASA dial. Now just needs seals and a focus screen clean.
Nightmare job but I wouldn't give up and it had to be brought back to life!
That is my 2nd 'Phoenix' MX
Now I have 2 of them

"In a photographic context I don't like the use of the word 'shot' as where I live this word refers to an extreme act of violence and not the beautiful craft of photography"
