Vintage film cameras - Page 245 - SV650.org

I had another look at Flickr and found the EXIF. At 0.35-0.4m and f2.8-f3.5 you have very little DoF. You will need to use f16-f22 with the corresponding shutter speed and ISO - I would go for lower ISO (e.g. 400 not 300000000000000) and a slow shutter speed, I presume you can trigger it with a cable release, remote, or self-timer. You could increase the distance a bit which will increase the DoF anyway, and crop the picture. I'm not sure how you'd focus though, can it do a DoF preview? If not then you can use a DoF table to figure it out, bit fiddly though, unless it's on the lens - my brother in law's D7200 had nothing on the lens barrel.

That shelf seems to be the only place I can get good light on the camera. However it is too high to use a tripod and I can't zoom in and hand hold as the shot gets to blurry. Will have to find a better spot next time.

Tease. Have messaged to see if the price is right.

Lol, has the seller forgotten a zero?

Dunno, I also saw a nice Contessa in Plymouth for a tenner, no way of getting it though!

Think so. Have messaged them.
