Re: Vintage film cameras
Cheers, I did tell you it was 81 now and not 89?

Re: Vintage film cameras
Went up to grab the camera bundle this morning. FR2 wasn't responsive at first but a clean out of the battery compartment and it's fine. Shutter speeds sound on the right lines. Accompanied by 28mm, 55mm, 135mm DSBs.
MX works mechanically with a bit of shutter squeak but can't get the light meter to work. Came with 28mm f2.8; 50mm 1.7; 50mm f2 and 80-200 f4.5 zoom. A few filters, and a couple of flashes in there too. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Absolute steal. Jealous, even though I have both.

Re: Vintage film cameras
I've got the MX battery cap sitting in citric acid to clean off any corrosion. Connections under the battery compartment look OK, as does the switch under the base plate.
Will probably keep all the lenses but not sure about the FRii. A fully auto camera doesn't really appeal to me. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
There is a guide online to follow to check a small swith under the baseplate. That was the issue with my one.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Nice haul! Is it a black or silver MX? I have the 28/2.8 assuming it's a Pentax, they're not great TBH, the Hoya I have is better but finding a good wide angle lens isn't easy

Re: Vintage film cameras
I think the photos showed it as chrome.
