#GrumpyTim spend additional days trying to resurrect an old #Contax 137MA SLR camera after severe damage from leaking batteries. (That body from 1982 had 3 SMD ICs, and was priced around 1000€ in todays money)
Flex-PCB tracing, drawing diagrams and patching broken and corroded traces.
Spoiler: still not fully working, but progress.
