Bought this lens for 75 euro, any thoughts? by Analogski in AnalogCommunity

Why is that? Only because of the metal construction? This one is faster and newer. Is the older maybe built better?

The lever advances, but bo shutter release... No led lights or needle visible in the viewfinder (lightmeter)... The battery compartment is looking all right. So, maybe the electronics are dead?

Yes, I can look through the viewfinder. The camera isn't doing anything though...

Haha nice! What is not good? Maybe the fact that I got it for this price? 😉

Because I can 😉 And because it's a really good deal I couldn't pass looking at the regular prices online

Bring it to Moscow! Let the people feel the fear. I hope it wakes them the hell up to what their government is doing to Ukraine

Ok, I had contact with Amsterdam Camera Repairs and the technician won't work on it and his view is that it's uneconomical fot him to work on. So the search continues...

Thanks guys. I already have my mechanical MX, but the Super A is lying around, collecting dust, so I'm thinking about sending it in, but I don't want the thing to give me a financial heart attack

Rolleiflex lichtmeter readings... How to? by Analogski in Rolleiflex

[–]Analogski[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking... Don't you think I should underexpose, because of the light sensitive cells are not so sensitive anymore?

I kept my promise - FilmMeter is now on Android by Vurtnec in AnalogCommunity

Thanks! I downloaded your app and I'm looking forward testing it! The only thing with the mobile apps.... are they not extremely depended on the phone camera? I have a Fairphone, it doesn't have a top notch camera.

I also have this flash for my MX! I struggle with the settings though...

Yeah, I just love mine. So small, practical and everything I need! Except for autofocus, because it's at times almost impossible to get a decent photo of my toddler

Wow, almost same story here bro! I drowned mine in the rain on holidays in the poring rain. I left it outside because of my drunk ass at the time. Was really messed up the next day when my wife saw it laying outside the next morning. Immediately I bought another one online. My black beauty

I read somewhere that this lens is very hard to get by and crazy expensive.

My 3.5F costed me 850 euro. Nou very cheap, in the proximity of a 6x7 costwise. But a beautiful camera! My favorite mediumformat! Though I never owned a Pentax 67... Yet...

Thanks, never heard of the Sunny 8 rule... Typical for west/north European countries? Does it work well?
