I'm retired and 68 years of age. I have a Fujica AX-3 film camera I bought in 1971 in Japan and want to start taking pictures again. I have a 2.8 f=135 mm lens and a 1.9 f=50 mm lens that came with camera. Bummer though I left the battries in my flash unit for forty years, looking for a new one that works with my camera, that won't empty my bank. Looking forward to start taking pictures.

Consider cleaning the contacts with vinegar and water and polish them up with a red rubber eraser on a pencil.
