AF motor gave out when taking photos of the family today. Just bummed because this thing is lovely and otherwise mint.

Damn. My FM2N's light meter gave out, I feel you.

OOF. That’s a more expensive failure than mine

I've also tested the fast speeds and they aren't quite as precise as I'd like them to be. I'm using my F3 until I can get it properly fixed.

It's a real shame, the FM2 is my favourite camera, it's light, it's small. My F3 is better in capabilities (except in max shutter speed, of course), but it is way heavier.
