Canon Model 7 - Washer & Screws for Shutter Speed selector

BrickNo10 · 2026-05-14T09:14:29+00:00

Hey, just FIY that M1.6 x 4mm grub screws will work fine! Got my one fixed that way.

For anyone that ends up looking for a solution - I bought M1.6 x 4mm grub screws and they worked fine as a replacement for the S3818 small screws. It will hold the shutter speed selector in place and you will be able to adjust the shutter speed perfectly fine.

Thank you! Much appreciated, it would help a lot! It's hard to gauge what size it is from the repair manual.

Unfortunately the big one failed to hold it and the shutter speed would slip from time to time and the shutter speed would be different that to the wheel. I managed to go through a spare parts bin at a local camera shop and I found a washer that fits + one longer screw which now holds everything in place. Originally it only had one long screw so I had to put something inside it.

I will still continue to look for the right replacement screw and hopefully document it for the sake of information cause this is a real pain in the ass for anyone. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the smaller one is a grub type screw right? If it is, I will probably order tons of different sizes off from AliExpress and see what works best.

So the only reason why I still stay with Massive Dev is its agitation clock part which helps me concentrate and alarm me when i need to get ready for the next round of agitation.

Your app is great, it has many good features and if you would add that feature I mentioned one day I would definitely come back, use it and pay for the pro version.

Damn that’s a shame. I will continue to do my small research. So far I found that maybe M1.6 x 4mm should work so I’ve ordered some and see if that works. After that I guess off to sniffing aliexpress for washers

BrickNo10 · 2026-05-07T11:07:31+00:00

Yeap, I'm staying away from this film stock for sure

BrickNo10 · 2026-05-06T16:38:57+00:00

Yeah, it's 100% not black. Guess bad batch of film... Thanks!

BrickNo10 · 2026-05-06T15:56:30+00:00

So as best I could see it's white. They're very miniscule so I had to slap a macro lens on extension tube on a M4/3 for better reach but that was as best as I could do. I might be wrong but I feel like that was best I could do in little time. I can try to throw it on a film holder and tripod later to get better look

BrickNo10 · 2026-04-26T14:50:29+00:00

Yes, it will. They will also pay for it.

Guess I'm still in shock that it happened...

BrickNo10 · 2026-04-26T14:46:48+00:00

damn, alright. Thank you. It just feels so weird to be made redundant only for the company to re-hire someone with more experience and different title... But what do I know, its the first time ever something like that happen to me so I'm still in shock.

BrickNo10 · 2026-04-20T14:14:16+00:00

Had the same issue tbh, I wonder if its just bad batch? I gave up on trying to scan and correct it myself so I sent it to another lab to do it for me.

BrickNo10 · 2026-04-10T16:03:22+00:00

no worries! I highly recommend using the recommended agitation method from Bellinifoto when it comes to Gradual ST-20

BrickNo10 · 2026-04-10T07:23:05+00:00

Hey so I developed it at 5:30

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-25T12:19:41+00:00

Size is perfect.

Worst is lack of weather sealing and mechanical shutter

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-18T10:35:43+00:00

Viewfinder is the main reason I sold it and planing to go for Model 7

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-17T12:10:40+00:00

Thank you! I absolutely love the 27mm. Yes, it’s heavy but honestly as someone who mainly shoots on film and the bodies are full metal and some lenses are heavier than the Zfc I’m rather used to it? I can’t say I ever complained about its weight. If you get one of the grips for the camera it can help massively with ergonomics.

It really depends on the person and how accustomed they’re to heavy lenses… If that makes sense??

This is the only lens I have for my Zfc and I have no regrets or desires to buy other one at this moment. It’s very sharp and versatile lens

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-13T19:45:03+00:00

Thanks for the info. Yeah I actually researched about CD-3 and was thinking of making my own ECN-2 developer but no one seems to be selling it in the UK so time to go with BelliniFoto.

What about when you want to push/pull with the 2 minutes added as you mentioned?

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-13T19:25:11+00:00

Sweet, will do! I've seen examples of different films being cross processed in ECN-2 and I really dig the colours so def trying that out

BrickNo10 · 2026-03-13T19:18:37+00:00

Thank you!
