<p>Thanks guys for the answers!<br>

I allready had it fixed, it now has it's correct half press.<br>

Thanks</p>

<p>Hi all<br /> I bought a used Pentax 67ii in generally good condition, I'm on the 3rd film through it, and I came to realize the shutter trigger has no "half press" travel. <br /> It is quite solid, as you touch it with some pressure, it fires.<br /> No downward movement of the button what so ever.<br /> Is this faulty? is it reparable if so, do you think? <br /> Thanks<br /> Itai</p>

<p>Thanks JDM. I had that Kiev, I'll stick to non-kiev equipment for now...<br>

:-)<br>

Thanks</p>

 

<p>Thank you all for your inputs.<br>

Well, I just got back from a 2-3 hours walk with the camera, and It has it's plus and minuses.<br>

On the plus side, looking down at the glass is a. beautiful, and b. really helps with the composition.<br>

There was a significant percentage of shots that benefited from this perspective.<br>

The camera is actually quite compact and holdable.<br>

Working with the magnifying glass flip up-down is a bit annoying though.<br>

The thing doesn't latch good, and jumps up into my nose from time to time...:-)<br>

But, and it's a big but for me (:-)), I am more of a snap-shooter, I take pictures in the street/events, and I wanted a medium format to come along with me. I need a faster system actually.<br>

I think a Mamiya 6 or 7 might fit this need of mine better, the 90 prism is OK, but as Hugo mentioned, I'm afraid it will not be so comfortable to hold like that.<br>

In any case, I will spend more time with this camera, to get the hang of it better.<br>

Thanks!<br>

<p>I am of course used to SLR's.<br>

I find the WLF great for still life, less so for casual portraits.</p>

<p>Hi all<br /> I've recently bought myself a 501c, with a waist level viewfinder. (and a 150 CF lens).<br /> Immediately as I loaded a film and set out to catch my first victims,<br /> I was kind of put out by the low vantage point.<br /> The camera is at, well, waist height. Ok, chest height,<br /> and I find it too low for most portraits. <br /> So, I was wondering if I should get a 90 degrees pentaprism.<br /> I wanted to hear your remarks and wisdom first,<br /> as I'm new to this system.<br /> <br /> Thanks!<br /> Itai</p>

thanks,

i've noticed that the slim filters are'nt threaded, preventing the use of a lens hood.

is that something we have to live with?

Hi all

I'm getting a canon 16-35 for my D20,

and I'll also buy a UV and a polarizer.

I want the filters to be compatible for a future full-frame camera.

Will that make it necessary to go for a Slim filter?

Is there vigenetting from a regular filter at 16mm on a FF body?

Thanks
