<p>My d40 flash battery compartment wont stay locked, battery magazine pops out and the eject switch will not stay in the closed position. Is this a common problem and is it easily fixed?</p>

<p>I wear glasses , although they are not very thick, but I can see the framelines fine with my 65mm, you'll<br>

love this lens.</p>

To focus with a split screen you want to be looking at some vertical line in your subject

and match the two halfs of the image. Hope this helps as it's a little difficult to put into

words.

They sell a small mechanical self timer at BH and also you can use infrared remote with cw

winder

I bought one from dealer in H.K on ebeay., when the meter stoped working under

warranty..they would not answer my many many emails....also note that mamiya USA will not

even service your camera, even if you are willing to pay!

Get a Zing neoprene pro slr cover...fits perfect and I love mine

Your loading the film wrong. There are two lines on the start of paper leader for 220 film. You need to crank past the first starting line until you hit the second starting line..Then you will get the 24

exposures..hope this is clear..

Use 1/125 and you should be fine

I use mine with my 503 about 60% of the time...really helps to get sharper images..especially with longer lenses.

Yes I am printing myself on Agfa multicontrast RC using VCCE saunders head dialing in 3 filter as baseline

Thanks to all for the advice, I will be doing more testing with all your suggestions.

I have been using Agfa recomended dev times.Rodinal 1-25@8min 1-50@17min and for D-76 stock @9min 1-1 @13.5 all at 68F/20c

I have been shooting APX 100 in 120. My results have been a little

bit "muddy grey" for my tastes. I have tried Rodinal 1-25 and 1-50

and also D-76 stock and 1-1. Any sugestions for getting a little more

pop from this film?

I bought a new Gitzo carbon tripod from him, no problems at all brand new in box as advertised...
