Yes
Got out the new Nikon EM complete with Nikon 50mm E series lens, wound it on and triggered. All seems well.

Put a film in and wound on a couple of frames

Checked the batteries for voltage (both 1.395v).

Pressed the battery test and it lights up.

Set ISO to 400 (as per Kodak BW400cn film)

Turned dial under film advance to AUTO.

Pulled frame advance out, remove lens cap and focussed.


Now.... Exposure needle does not move.

Looked in manual and it state depress the shutter button partially, well I've pressed it till it is above to trigger but still nothing.

Are the batteries below what I should have, is it broken, am I doing something wrong?

Any ideas?

EDIT: .... and how do you set the shutter speed?
