  1. Me again! I thought I should keep my inquiries separate.

     

    I've owned my Epson Stylus CX6400 for about 2 years. The print heads have

    recently become hopelessly clogged and I am told there is no one in my area that

    works on printers, which means I would have to send it off to be serviced.

    Basically I am wondering what the life of a consumer level 3-in-1 machine is?

    Would it be worth it for me to get it serviced, or should I get a new one? What

    do you guys think of 3-in-1 machines? In the case that you suggest a new

    printer, what would you suggest for under $200 or is that completely inconceivable?

     

    I recently bought my 1st digital SLR, and was excited to print my own images

    when all this clogged business happened!

     

    Thanks again for any advice!

  2. I am curious about how to go about making CDs of my images that are "universal."

    I had a problem a few months ago with a CD I submitted which could not be opened

    on the recipient's computer. Very embarrassing! Even more embarrassing is I had

    no idea why she wouldn't have been able to view it - but through my research I

    realize the problem was probably as simple as her having a Mac, and me making

    the CD in Windows on my PC.

     

    Before that problem with my CD, I thought that as long as you saved a file in

    the type requested (JPEG in my case) that it would be accessible on any system.

    Am I wrong? Are there free download-able programs that would enable me to make

    universal CDs?

     

    Thank you so much!

  3. I have been wanting a wide-angle lens for my Bronica SQ-Ai for a few

    months, but they are out of my price range! While searching Ebay, I

    found a 50mm "Super Komura for Bronica" lens. I have asked the seller

    if it will work with my body, but it is through Adorama and it has

    been my experience that they are not very likely to respond.

     

    Does anyone here know whether the 2 are compatable? Should I call

    Adorama and talk to someone in person?

     

    I know the Komura would be one of the lower end lenses but as I stated

    earlier I can't afford more and I'm willing to work with any

    quirkiness of the lens - unless there are any explicit reasons why it

    would be a bad purchase. The price I'd be paying is $79 plus $15

    shipping. Thanks!

  4. I had a very similar problem with my SQ-Ai the other day...it was only the batteries. And the AE Prism light meter still worked as did the battery check light, but the shutter needed more battery power. I only replaced 2 of the 4 batteries cause that was all I had on hand and then the shutter worked just fine. Good luck.
  5. Hi! I am relatively new to my Bronica SQ-Ai, although I have loaded

    film into the filmbacks about 4 times now, the very 1st time I tried

    it without looking at the directions, (earlier today), wouldn't you

    know it, I loaded it wrong! Therefore, the paper was covering the

    film the whole time I was shooting. What I am interested in knowing

    is can I still use that roll of film... i.e. can I load it in again

    (correctly) and still get properly exposed negatives? Thanks for the

    help - I'm glad I found this forum and I plan on exploring and using

    it from now on!
