Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo au top 👍

Very helpful, my Big Mini F was the same procedure exactly

good video! a little question... my copy of this camera says the battery is empty with a fresh one installed. could this be a sign of a bad capacitor?

would it be possible for me to send mine in and get it fixed for a price?

Thanks for the video. Last month the back buttons stopped working and after ordering from aliexpress, today I followed your instructions and got my camera working again. My grandfather gifted it to me in the 90s and I still use it regularly. As a note, I have the BM-302 (without the date backplate) so I didn't have to solder the 3 leads (which are left unsoldered from the factory).

may i ask whether the flex cable works for the big mini neo r?

Wow! Well done man. What a great video.

You should look into all the point and shoots Fuji medium format cameras that need fixing because of faulty ribbon that gets stretched because of door back. There are so many that need repairs and Fuji won't back up their crappy design faults, even for money ! And we would pay !

my konica bm_300 is missing the pcb, anyone know if i can find a replacement?

thank you very much

Hey there friend, where did you buy your ribbon from?

Why didn’t u retap the existing holes?

Just ordered a flex cable for my bm-302 and gonna try using this video to fix it, wish me luck 😬👌

There’s a tiny rectangular black “M1M” resistor on the old cable and the new one doesn’t come with it. Is it ok to leave it off? I tried to transfer it to the new cable but it’s too tiny to handle.

thank you for your infomation

Hey! Would you be able to fix my Konica big mini 201. It has a torn ribbon cable. I would love to attempt to fix it myself but am scared I’ll ruin it further. Would pay of course! Thanks

This was helpful thanks for posting, I was able to revive my A4 just now :D. Not exactly the same but pretty similar and no need for soldering in my case. Here's the link from were I got the cable in case anyone need in the future. pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005001667411369.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.52cd33135FYm05&algo_pvid=6bb873d3-5230-4545-9e34-b12e5e8e69e9&algo_expid=6bb873d3-5230-4545-9e34-b12e5e8e69e9-1&btsid=0bb0623616179115641983095e3ed4&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_

i decided to be extra careful/safe doing this repair so i drained the flash capcitor and now the camera is dead. Can't quite figure out why. Maybe if I charge the capcitor back a certain level it only will it allow power to be delivered to the rest of the board...

Is there a way I could send you my camera and fix it for me? I’d be willing to pay you!

Hi, my big mini has a small piece of plastic in the viewfinder, do you think it's safe to just take the front off to take the plastic piece out? Thank you

Great job.

this is so helpful, I wonder if you know which flex cable is needed for the Konica Mermaid waterproof big mini?

Hey thanks a lot for the video. Where did you buy your tools? Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this tutorial 😃 I fixed my BM-201 today. A little bit different in comparesing with the BM-301 and with no soldering 😉

Thank you for sharing, my bm-201 ribbon cable almost broke...... definitely need a new one...

Thank you so much for this! Would this process work for the Konica A4 as well?

where can I buy the things to replace?

can u do it with konica big mini 201?

i want these dices, how can i get those. can you send me via courier

Can you recommend a counterbore? The cheap chinesium ones I bought on amazon just rolled right the F over and barely scratched the surface of the soft steel. Very frustrating

I'm curious if it's possible to re-use the existing holes?

Very nice. I have an old usa craftsman vise that needs this badly. Thanks for some good ideas.

What grade steel did you use for the jaws and were they hardened/tempered?

That's a fine looking lamp.
