Author Topic:   Minolta Maxxum 400si apeture ring

I have a Minolta Maxxum 400si. I was told that the apeture ring needs to be replace, everything is dark when I look through the viewfinder regardless of the lens I'm using. Does anyone know of a repair manual to do this or a place to get it done that won't charge me more than it costs to replace the enitre camera.

Is the apeture ring the piece that connects the lens and the camera? If so where would be a good place to buy one?
Thanks very much Charlie

Charlie, did you ever get satisfaction on your dark viewfinder problem? I'm facing the same problem with my 3xi and want to try to replace the aperture base myself.
