Canon A1. I'm not very patient and I'm not very skillful. You know some people can ice cakes, and some can't - I can't .What he said - I've changed the seals on a few of mine - it's a pretty easy job (not 2-3 hours, mind, more like 30 mins on the ones I have done: Nikon FE, FM2 and Olympus Trip). I'd say you don't have to be hugely technical to do it, just reasonably careful and patient.
The kits cost about £5 on ebay, usually including instructions, tools and mirror damper foam too (for an SLR).
What camera is it?
Thanks for the advice though, maybe I'll get the kits (?) and talk someone with deft fingers through it. Though now I have posted two pictures (last night) would you think this was light seals or an aperture not opening properly as idon'tknowwhatmynameiscares (sp?) thought. The photographs were probably taken in "fully automatic mode" as snapshots. Maybe a good overhaul is needed instead
