Problem for Nikon F3 35mm Film Camera

New battery,still no power...

By murkw00d on Dec 25, 2008

" "

My daughter wants to learn the art of photography. I want to give her my old F3 that I don't use anymore. I put a new battery in it but can't seem to get it to power up. Is there a common fix or do I need to take it to a shop?

- THanks. Tried it with no success. Sounds like I need to take it into a shop...

I used to work in a camera store and was confronted with this problem often. Try using an ink eraser to clean the contacts in the camera. Use an old style ink pen with one of those white erasers on the end. Easier to insert in the battery cavity.
