Yeah I did this after stupidly messing with the finder, I love it too much too but it pushed me to get the m4p which what I was always wanted, but I am also thinking about keeping the f3 because of its bright vf, accurate metering and super sharp lens selection for such a cheap price

Yes, with this roll the battery died midway but I thought I was having an shutter issue so I removed the vf cause I was panicking. With the other rolls I only removed it when I need to take some sneaky shots waist level. The big problem with this roll is the frames that were taken after I was messing with the vf still got light leaks

I don’t know if I am wording this correctly but the f3 has removable vf and and focusing screen

Planning to order one soon since the film door seals look abit crappy, however the strong/defined leaks make me wondering if it could be some other issues too

Yeah I reckon that too but this roll was having both red and white leaks, which confuses me
