I had that happen with my R8. During shooting a wedding no less. It
would work on manual without problems. It's the meter cells I
believe. Mine was done under warranty. However, out of warranty the
cost is around $300+.
Just had the same thing happen with my Rollei 6003pro. It's sitting
here on my shelf, no different than the paper weight its become over
the past few years.
