Hi, I am looking to buy a Linhof Technika IV or V and I heard that the older Schneider

lenses that usually come with these cameras are not coated properly (or perhaps the

coating doesn?t last) and therefore do not properly render colors. I?m not very familiar

with Linhof/Schneider nomenclature and I realize this is a very vague question but any

help/thoughts would be great appreciated. Thanks!

I recently purchased a Minolta CLE on ebay that hadnt been used for over 15 years. I got

the camera serviced and although all shutter speeds fired accurately, the AE drastically

overexposed in low light conditions (although in direct sunlight it worked perfectly). My

repair guy isnt sure what to do, so I'm wondering if anyone has had problems with the

CLE's autoexposure and if so, how they fixed it? In case I do need an entirely new circuit

board, does anyone know whats the best way to get one? Thanks.
