  1. <p>I don't think any EF lenses have manual control, its all done through the menus. Or choose Av and set it that way. Same as shutter speed in Tv.</p>
  2. <p>I found a grip for my EOS M on eBay, did a search for "grip EOS M". Made of aluminum, it adds more depth to the right hand side, making it easier to hold. It screws into the existing tripod socket, and has a new socket in the base. Space is open to allow removal of the SD car and battery. Think it cost $27.00. Neat item.</p>

  4. <p>I got a somewhat similar one for my Canon EOS M recently. The minimal grip on the front and the thumb rest on the back aren't that great for holding this relatively heavy camera. My thumb kept slipping off the back one and touching the rear LCD, which is a touch screen so I often changed something inadvertently. </p> <p>It fits perfectly on the body, with an open space for the battery and memory card door. It came with two Allen wrenches, one which tightens the screw into the camera's tripod socket, but there is no indication what the smaller one is for. Got mine on eBay from a Chinese seller for $27.00 postpaid. A great item!</p>
  5. <p>Must be 10 years or so ago that I got my first Canon 300D DSLR. I had a T90 film camera at the time, assumed I'd be using it alongside the DSLR. Well that didn't happen, and the T90 sat unused for about six months when I got it out to shoot some wide angle shots with my Vivitar 17mm lens. After a few shots, the camera showed the "EEEEE" error message and would not work.<br> <br />I found out online at the time this meant the shutter failed. I was told if the camera wasn't used for a long time, magnets in the shutter would lose their magnetism and no longer work. I had the shutter replaced and sold the camera.<br> <br />Since that time I've been picking up copies of the old Canon film cameras that I used over the years. Just as souvenirs, no real intent in getting back into film. The T90 is the only one I don't have, and see one listed on a local online selling site.<br> <br />So my question is - is not using the T90 the probable cause of shutter failure? While I would not be using the camera if I should buy it, I would like to have it be operational.<br> <br />Thanks!</p>
  6. <p>These have been available on eBay for some time now. I have three Canon ones, two as shown and a white lens. Paid less than $10 each delivered for mine.</p>
