Comments: I stuck a beat up MD-12 power winder on the FE. It looks cool, makes a cool "kerschlack" sound. I enjoy the irony of having a crappy camera that looks professional.
Manual: Butkus
More info: Ken Rockwell
Issues: Mine version is pretty hurting. Electronic shutter does not work, only the mechanical bulb and 1/90 speeds work. Missing battery holder. Missing part of the rewind knob. Apparently the back has a light leak.
But it still takes fine pictures.
The FE with the MD-12 on it certainly makes a unique sound. Nice finder and handling.
