I have had an inactive account in Photo.net for long now, and I cannot find an option to delete it. Since it pops up in search engines and...
It's a great camera. I don't think it's heavy for the neg size and quality you get. On the AE lens, check it thoroughly for shutter accuracy, I...
The 35/2 is a lovely lens. I only stopped using it lately because I shoot mostly 6x9. But you can scan and stitch 35mm frames and get MF quality...
There's one big caveat about thinking you can get MF results with 35mm gear: You might get similar results if you get a good drum scan or...
I have a black version, and it's a solid performer. I don't know what you expect in sharpness, but I have also a Fujica gl690 with a 50mm super...
Yep, 120 film ain't that easy to find either, so instead of fiddling with the camera I'd put an extra effort and get 220 film from the sources...
Are you always using the same cable? That sounds a lot more like the innards of your cable are screwed, not the camera. If a cable trip has too...
I'd go for a Fujica with interchangeable lenses. I have one, and it's pretty much the same as using a mechanical Leica, quite simple (not the size...
If you like your Fuji, I'd say try to get an older one with the interchangeable lenses. A GL690 with a 180mm lens should work for portraits, I...
I bet this is the problem, as it happens to several mechanical cameras: The shutter button mechanics are plain dirty (and only a little cold can...
Mike, It's not that I love doing this stuff, but it makes the focus mechanic a lot more intuitive once I get it. The big thing I learned is that...
By the way, I made the graphic on an excel table coloring the cells, so it's not absolutely correct at a decimal level because the work would be...
So, if you open the graphic, the X axis is the dof scale in meters, the Y axis is the precise focus point. So, you can see in the same colors as...
After a lot of points of good info was answered here http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00J0u4 there was something about focus...
