: of the battery. Now I have an AE-1 and the battery
: keeps draining because the light meter is on all
: the time. I can't figure out how to turn it off!

: : The AE-1 has an electric shutter release. If the battery gets low it will do just as you describe! The battery must be good AND you cannot use the alkaline battery. You must use either the silver oxide or the lithium battery.
