  1. Niccoli.

    If you're interesting to take picture with your Polaroid 95A. I will recommend to convert it to 120 roll film. I did convert a Polaroid 95A to use 120 roll film and I can choose 4 different formats for my camera. The pictures look excellent, it doesn't take much time to convert one to 120 roll film. Just be careful, if you want to do it yourself you can contact me. Minh

  2. You have an excellent SLR, you don't really need a Nikon now.

    Get a 135mm, a 2X converter, a dedicated flash for your FTBn Canon, those are enough for the system. The money left over, spend on a Canon QL17 ranger finder. You'll never worry about the value of those cameras and take your time to make excellent pictures, and let us enjoy them with you.

    Cheers Minh

  3. I choose 1st Canon QL17 a compact complete automatic when used with Canolite D, about $50.00 - $70.00

    2nd Yashica Electro GSN, about $20.00 to $40.00.

    I have a Canon QL17, an Olympus RC, a Minolta 7s, a Ricoh 500, a Petri 1.8 and a Yashica GSN. All are excellent but I myself prefer

    the QL17 and GSN. Minh

  4. Hi Parasko

    The lightmeter on the QIII is very accurate, get a battery and if you can get a canon D flash. Set the apperture ring to A, set the speed to 60 and let the camera do its job, You will see how smart that little classic is. I have my lovely one for 20 years and it still does excellent and reliable job every time I use it. Hopefully it will last for 20 more years.

    When you use it outside in daylight the flash will do the fill-in job and inside it set the apperture by the distance from the camera to the object by itself (very interesting)

    Believe me you will have the complete roll-film look excellent from the 1st to the last one. Try it you'll love it

    Good luck with your GIII. Minh

  5. Hi Brian

    I convert a Polaroid Land camera to 135 film.The result is awesome

    but it cost too much to develop to 5"x22" or 10"x45" at the lab.

    I don't do the dark room work, just have a hobby. The slide from a Polaroid 150 look really good, I want to develop to 5"x22" but the lab want $50.00 for each. If the pictures turn-out good I will make some more like Polaroid 110a,110b,120. With those lens I'm sure I will have excellent panorama pictures.

    Thanks

  6. 1st Take the roller out and wash it with hot water, check for any

    bend or crooked sight.

    2nd Replace the roller if it is not good.

    You can get the replacement roller from some cheap plastic Polaroid

    for couple bucks.

    Good luck

  7. Use f16 and 125 with 100 asa film outside in sunshine.

    After 3 rolls of film your built-in meter will decide easily what's

    right. The reimbursed money is more than enough to pay for 3 rolls of film developped.

    Good luck,and enjoy your camera.

  8. I have a Yashica D and did have nice pictures with it for years

    It doesnot have a hot shoe so you need an extension cord and that's

    all. Set flash terminal to X and enjoy your pictures for many years

    with that beautiful vintage.

    Look at the taking lens if it says Yashinon it is a later model

    Good luck, Minh

  9. I just convert my Polaroid 110a to 120 roll film and get excellent

    6x12 actually 52x104 mm panorama pictures.

    They blow away the panorama pictures of hasseblad X pan.

    Now I almost finish my next project, and I will have a Polaroid multi format camera which has 4 formats 6x12; 6x9; 6x6; and 6x4.5

    Interesting and excellent MF.
