Re: Vintage film cameras
Still not sent my film off. I'd like to maybe shoot a roll of MF, my Super Fujica Six in the classic square format has to be a favourite but I need to find something to point it at. Am still a bit...

Re: Vintage film cameras
I've finally finished a roll of Agfa Vista 200 in the Minolta, can't even think where to send it! I got a new job this year and I just don't have any time. That and a the odd episode like when I took...

Re: Vintage film cameras
Just seen the Canon, the famous dream lens. How much was it going for? The lens was used for filming Army of the Dead, though you can tell the CGI bits as they have all the DoF.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Sounds great! I had a nice long break over Christmas, a month off as I was changing jobs. Could have done it for longer!

Re: Vintage film cameras
Snaps got back to me about the pics, said it looked like transfer from the backing paper, but they couldn't see anything they had done wrong. Contacted Ilford and sent a couple of pics, they got back...

Re: Vintage film cameras
Ah right, I did wonder! Checked my Contessa LKE, the one I took to Spain. The shutter speeds are slow, so 1/30 is more like 1/15, so my indoor pics have a lot of motion blur. The focus is miles off...

Re: Vintage film cameras
Not sure I remember than Kenzie, are you getting mixed up with the Contina?
Yoko - thanks for the tip, the service manual shows a screw on the front, but all I see is the red dot, how is that...

Re: Frosty the Snowman
Not watched it but just clicked through to see if it was another spoof on the Hitler video, shame it isn't, in some ways!

Re: Vintage film cameras
There's a manual on Learn Camera Repair. It looks like some screws to adjust, if I've read it right - I think normally you have to shim things?

Re: Vintage film cameras
I found out how to adjust the focus, will have a twiddle over Christmas. Left things a bit late so have been cleaning a K1000 I picked up over summer, it was grottier than I'd thought, all works fine...

Re: Vintage film cameras
I've checked it and it shows why I don't use viewfinder cameras, I can't estimate distance to save my life. It's a little off, the scale matches the film plane but the focus screen tells you to focus...
