the X-700 is dead

I got my test roll of film back this afternoon. The third trip to the camera shop did nothing. My beloved 15-year-old X-700 is unusable.
I'll put it on the "display" shelf for dead cameras next to the SRT-101. Goodbye, and thank you for your years of service.
On a brighter note, my 20mm manual focus lens is in order again; very happy with some of the pics I've taken with it!
