<p>Hello everybody , </p> <p>Since i have a C33 i spended a lot of hours by reading info concerning this camera . <br> (Mostly done when my husband isn't at home... .)<br> There is for the moment one more thing i struggle with :the exposure index correction , <br> (cfr the users manual /pdf of this body). Briefly explained but rather difficult to understand.<br> Untill now i understand that this correction has to be taken into account when you are <br> photographing very close to the subject -this is when the bellows is extracted with an 80 mm lens.<br> Can somebody give me some more info about this item ?<br> Am I wrong by saying that : as long as i don't see the (parallax)pointer on the viewer glass ,<br> i don't have to take into account the exposure index correction ? <br> Also , in the owners manual there is an example when the pointer is set to 2 , then you have<br> to adjust the aperture with one stop by holding the same shutter time .<br> Another question : what to do when the pointer in the viewing glass is set to<br> 1,5 ; which aperture stop have i to take for adjusting the exposure - while i am using<br> the same shuttertime. <br> How many stops to use when pointer is set to 2,5 and 3,0 ? <br> And what to do when the pointer is in between two exposure indexes on the viewer glass? <br> Fyi, i could buy some film for my C33 : Fujicolor pro 400 120 . Comments/remarks about are also welcome<br> about this choice.</p> <p>Best Regards, </p> <p>Ann</p>

<p>Hello David and Dave ,</p> <p>Thanks alot for your fast and good feedback . <br> As i was afraid to damage this lever, i didn't dare to get force on this lever . <br> But after trying with a little extra force , i can now rotate this lever ..;<br> It seems that there is little bit of WD40 is needed . <br> So, shooting with this C33 will be my next step . But it is hard to find some film for this type of <br> camera in Belgium. If you have some input about this item , don't hesitate to inform me . <br> Tia,<br> Ann</p>

<p>Hello, since today i am a proud owner of a C33( Found it in a trash container from people who were moving !)<br> I tried this C33 out and everything seems to work. I have just one question/problem : how can I adjust (how works ) the parallax Correction Lever. For the moment it's on the "180" mark. How do i adjust it to for example to 80 ? I cannot move this lever .Is it broken ? <br> Additional info : there is no film inserted in the C33 body. <br> For the moment there is an 80/2,8 lens on the body . I have also a 180/4,5 set.</p> <p>Please, can someone help me ?<br> Best Regards from Belgium<br> Ann</p>
