  1. I knew someone that bought a 600mm lens for I think £100 the lens had scratch on the front element but apparently it does not affect the image quality
  2. Is there a simple way of repairing the unresponsive shutter?
  3. i'm looking a reasonably priced camera it says it's working but no film has been run through costs £22 is it worth the risk? What can go wrong?
  4. Thanks I tried contacting camera fair organisers but no luck
  5. I actually had an item stolen. For reasons I won't go into I did not realise until just a few days ago. I was just curious about prices but the item was a 57mm f1.2 hexanon lens serial number 7509741. What's the best way of making people aware of this?
  6. Just interested in the prices of konica manual hexanon lenses at the time of the late '70's to early '80's out of curiosity preferably in England though prices in the states would be interesting too
  7. The first camera was an olympus OM-10 a very nice camera that you could grow into with the manual adapter
  8. I thought minolta made the cameras up to the R7 or perhaps the M cameras?
  9. Thanks that's very interesting. Actually I can recall someone who used a focomat enlarged saying the lens periodically filled up with muck and he had to send it off to Levitz for it to be cleaned strange
  10. I am thinking of buying the above camera. I gave heard a great deal about the M lenses but less about the R series lenses. How good are they compared with other brands?
  11. Yes i think it's a 2509 which tanks are best? I have quite a few which I assumed were best for 35mm at the time. Are they suitable for both?
  12. Thanks for the ideas the reels are for sheet film does that a difference?
  13. Just bought a couple of film reels from eBay. They are a little brown. Is there a way of cleaning them? They are jobo reels
  14. The cover of my mju ii does not close easily. I have to touch the barrel of the lens to coax it back in. It is slightly loose. Is there a way of fixing it?
  15. Another firm similar to lee is hi-tech but really you use these firms if you have 24mm lenses or wider as they have special adapters so that there is no vignetting
  16. Thanks that's helpful I have left it in the shed and not looked at it for years. Just seen a video which from memory seems faster than my machine though I cannot be certain if it was not a CPA and not a CPA2 will go down in the morning
  17. I have an old CPA2 processor a jobo which I bought cheaply from a dealer. The motor worked only very slowly so it was suggested it needed changing. Something else was suggested but that I forgot. Has anyone any ideas?
  18. I left my minolta X-700 for a while and the battery leaked and the camera won't fire. What is the best way of cleaning it and can the camera be saved?
  19. I did try using MS100/1000 but did not push it to 1000 only about 400 I think. As you say it was an excellent film
  20. I wish I had known reminds me if when I was in jessops new Oxford st quite a few years ago provia 1600 had just been discontinued they had 20 rolls I think I bought the lot! Thanks for the information
  21. Just found out Fuji is discontinuing it's natura 1600 film which I have only just realised is a great film. I noticed the prices are high are there any places in the US that might sell it at a reasonable cost?
  22. My mju ii has a problem with the spring for the battery chamber which is a bit loose. Can anyone suggest a way of repairing it?
  23. I have of these the lens will not retract unless I open the back. Any idea of the problem?
