    I know this is a long shot, but here goes... So I bought this adapter a while back that allows me to use P6 mount lenses on my Mamiya 645. The adapter is now stuck to the lens and it seems there is no possible way to get it off. I've tried EVERYTHING. It has the slightest bit of give to it, but that's it. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what did you do? Thanks in advance - Steve

    It kind of feels the way it always has. There is definitely tension.

    Hi Everyone - I have owned the same Nikon F3 for years and never had a problem. The other day it started doing something really strange. Whenever I cock the shutter, it fires (without me pressing the button) immediately. I have never had this happen with any camera and I can't figure out what is going on. Has this ever happened to anyone else? I hope it's just something I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance - Steve

    Thanks Robert. I have an e-mail in to him but I have not heard anything back yet.

    Just wondering if anyone knows of a repair person who will service older Rolleicords? Harry Fleanor does not work on the Rolleicord III so, I need to find someone else. The slow speeds on the shutter are way too slow and I need to get it adjusted. Thanks in advance. Steve

    Thanks Joe.

    Hi Everyone - I recently noticed that my F4, when focused to infinity with a manual focus 50mm f1.8 lens, displays the farthest points as out of focus. I have never experienced this. Has anyone else?

    Thanks for the information and the photos. Much appreciated.

    I recently bought a Hasselblad 50mm Distagon f4 C T* Lens and I would like to use filters. I think it uses Series 63 filters, from what I've read ??? Not sure. Is there an adapter where I can use regular filters - 67mm perhaps? I can't find any definitive information. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks - Steve

    I have a Mamiya 80mm f2.8 N 645 Lens that has a very loose focusing ring. Has anyone ever had this happen and we're you able to fix it? I really don't want to send it off for repair. Thanks in advance. Steve

    Hi All - I recently purchased a Pentax 6x7 and I have found that it is very difficult to put the lenses on and take them off. You really have to apply a lot of pressure when turning them on the lens mount. Has anyone else experienced this? Any fixes? Thanks in advance. Steve

    Thanks Joe. I'll try that. I agree 100% about the older Mamiya 645s vs. the newer ones.

    I forgot to mention that I did try that. Did not work.

    Hi Everyone - One of the backs for my Mamiya 645 Pro TL just stopped working the other day. When you load the film, it advances to the first frame (with the power grip) but when you press the button to take the first shot it does nothing. It's not the camera because it fires with the back off and it fires with my other back. Has anyone ever experienced this? Thanks - Steve

    Does anyone know the viewfinder coverage for the Mamiya RB67 Pro S ? Is it 100% ? I know with the Pentax 6x7 when using the waist level finder the viewfinder shows 100%. Just curious if the RB does.

    Will do. Thanks.

    rodeo_joe: That did the trick. I really thought something was wrong with the lens. Thanks for the advice.
  20. stephen_komp
    I'll try that. Thanks !!!

    Yes, I should have been more clear. I do hold it down but it closes right away.

    I recently purchased a Mamiya c330 with an EX+ condition 80mm f2.8 Sekor lens. The lens works great and is accurate at all speeds. However, when I switch it to BULB, it won't stay open. It closes immediately. Am I doing something wrong? This is my first experience with a Mamiya TLR. Thanks - Steve

    Hi Everyone - I have two Rolleicords. The threaded hole where the cable release screws in (sorry, don't know the technical term) has broken off on both of them. As I understand it, this is a common issue. Does anyone have any advice for fixing it without having to send it off? Thanks in advance - Steve

    I figured out a way to open the back with the film in the camera and the shutter does not move at 1/500th of a second. I am seriously depressed.
