MTC Photography Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 <p>Just the electronic flash wich comes with the MX set is worth the money, MX flash works<br> with Minox EC, ( vice versa, the Minox EC flash also works on Minox MX)<br> PS, this special offer from Amazon ships only to US addresses, I had to pay $37 extra<br> to ship it to myUS.COM and then by DHL to me. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTC Photography Posted May 22, 2011 Author Share Posted May 22, 2011 <p>Jim, the MX (or EC) flash you need a special adapter see<br> <a href="../minox-camera-forum/009uUa">http://www.photo.net/minox-camera-forum/009uUa</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_crutcher Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Martin thank you for the info. I'm new to minox and looking forward to good results. Another question if you don't mind. What would be the best way for me to scan the negatives? Thx Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Photography Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 <p>Jim, you need a 35mm film scanner and a 8x11 film carrier (DIY)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTC Photography Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 <p>Jim, you are quite right, there is indeed a Minocolor 100 in the box, also a grey filter,<br> a 123 lithium battery.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_crutcher Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Also it controls the amount of flash very much like an auto flash. I'm thinking iso 100 it's good for 11-12 feet without the ND filter, what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Photography Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 <p>What I don't like the "on" button on the MX flash, some time pressing a long time still no respose. A toggle switch would be much better.<br> The Minox DSC has the same horrible on/off swith, you need to press long time before the<br> lights lits up, toooo slowwwwwwwwwwww !</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subminiature Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 <p>The MX flash is not a substitute for the 8x11 or ECX flash units. It is not designed to work with EC, ECX or other 8x11 Minox cameras. Why Minox or Acmel didn't use exactly the same specification for the connection we will never know. The MX is a rebadged and feature reduced version of the Acmel MX<br> Tests were done on this some years ago, just to see if it fired or not. AIIIs, B, BL, Cs and LX were tested in the end it came down to some work, some work but only on slow speeds and some do not work. It may be okay with your camera but not a different one.<br> Even if the flash fires it does not mean that it did by the time the shutter closed.<br> If you want to rely upon the flash get an 8x11 electronic flash and likely get camera and flash serviced.<br> http://www.submin.com/8x11/collection/acmel/index.htm</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon_mcgowan1 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 <p>I purchased a Minox MX which I use as my every day carry, as the camera and ND filter are extremely compact and light. Despite its limited features compared to my B, I'm actually very impressed with the lens quality of the MX, which is pretty sharp for such an inexpensive Minox. The camera is not battery-dependent and as long as the right film is selected for the situation, it's a surprisingly capable little tool.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
