Re: Vintage film cameras
I meant to ask if you had fixed that yet. I really must dig my Vito out, just have so many I haven't shot with yet. Off to London Zoo next month, might take one film and one digital. Its not far from the Lomography store, hoping we can pop in if we have time.

Re: Vintage film cameras
I have a few I want to look at, some should be minor jobs like not yet fixed the flash sync on my Pentax MX, which used to work. The Vito might take more thinking about as I'm not familiar with it and it's a bit of a jigsaw but some day!

Re: Vintage film cameras
Hey Johnny, have refitted the shutter speed selector and the base plate is back on. Will try and post out tomorrow. Haven't really tested the meter but there is no broken wires under the battery plate. What is wrong with the MX again?

Re: Vintage film cameras
Cool ta, will see what I can do, sounds like you're in no rush for it? The MX is fine and was fully working, but last time I used it to try out a lens I'd had fixed (actual money!) I found out the hard way that the flash sync had stopped working. It doesn't work off the PC ports either, so is most likely the switch itself. I use flash a fair bit so could do with fixing it. Bigger problem of a stuck thumb!

Re: Vintage film cameras
No rush, would be great to see if it can be fixed. Got a Pen EE S coming for spares, need a film door catch for my EE.

Hopefully this will do the trick. Hard to see what's going on but I'm happy enough at this point. I know there's a Taron badge in there but there is a fuzzy pic of the aperture leaves that should be the right ones for the Konica. And can you believe it, there is also a Konica S on there, first one I've seen since I bought mine at Christmas. Busted light meter but am keeping an eye on it, if the one on the Beauty works then it could be a way to fix it up and sell it for a profit, unless someone buys it first. There is also a Konica Auto S just gone on, the CdS meter version, really great cameras it is said, so am keeping an eye on that too but mainly out of interest rather than being serious. That and to see the selling price, they go for good money. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Thanks, will keep an eye on it. Did you win the Beauty? Wow, that Konica is close to you. Will he do a BIN?

Re: Vintage film cameras
No bids on the P30 + lenses yet either. Half an hour to go.
