Slightly more then a year ago, I bought this camera used with the zoom spring broken. When it arrived, the zoom spring was broken but the screen also got cracked (probably during shipping). I decided to keep it since the price difference between what I paid and the cheapest one without any issues was greater than the price of the spare parts. So I bought a replacement spring and a replacement screen, took the camera apart and replaced those but unfortunately when changing out the screen, the screen cable got ripped. So one replacement screen cable poorer, I fixed the camera and got it working. Unfortunately, I then noticed that the EV settings were off (at a setting of 0, the camera treated it as being at +1/3, +1/3 was still treated as +1/3, however +2/3 was treated as +1 and +1 was treated as +4/3 etc..) and the viewfinder attachment on the hot shoe was no longer working with this camera (it was working before I did the the repairs on the spring). For the time, I did not want to open up the camera again, since the EV, spring, and hotshoe were found in the top piece of the camera and to take that off I first would have to take off the back piece of the camera (were the screen is), so I decided to ignore those issues.
