I bought this Praktica MTL3 at a Salvation Army shop some years ago. The battery had been left in it, and had rotted. I removed the battery holder, and was able to loosen its cap by heating it on the stove. Apart from that, and a decayed light seal along the door hinge, the camera was fine. If I just want to shoot film, rather than try one of the other ancient machines I have, I use this camera. It is loaded with Kentmere 100.

Funnily enough, I have Fomapan 100 in an MTL3 at the mo. Currently sporting a Helios-44M, but will probably try the Jupiter 11 during this roll.
