Had a Minolta X-700 come in with the classic capacitor whine... tried the 'oven trick' as a last resort and it actually worked.

Nice! I had the same issue with my X-700 last year. I used a heat gun on the circuit board for about thirty seconds, focusing on the capacitor area. The whine stopped completely and the camera has been perfect ever since. It's a great fix when you don't want to do a full recap right away.
