    Just got a Minolta HiMatic F. Like many others online these cameras usually have damaged wires because of batteries leaks. For this reason I've opened the camera and replaced the negative cable. After getting the check light to work, I can't figure out how to actually shoot the camera. Maybe I' lacking knowledge ora there's is some other issue I'm not able to figure out. If anybody has advise please help.
    Here's a video of the camera:

    I would be happy to use a shotgun on the camera but is not yet the time.
