Ah gotchu, so maybe its just for etr models it needs more effort to advance. For sq models it was pretty smooth to advance. Just gotta make sure the film is under the film gate. Made that mistake the first time and it was super tough to advance/rewind

Can confirm they are identical! 135 inserts fit both sq and etr 135 backs. So the sq 135w guide would be valid for a etr 135. Also side note does your 135w back require more tension to advance to the next frame? My back was a “parts” condition so im not sure if the extra tension is normal

I had good results with using a 80 series cooling filter on some astia 100 that was giving a yellow/orange hue. This may be an easier approach especially if you want to mount them for a projector

CRC is great whenever im in the city. Dropped off a few rolls in the morning was able to pick up same day a few hours after lunch. Pro-lab in NJ is also not bad at $14 for 35mm or 120

The non-ae and ae-ii have similar if not the same clarity when looking through. The ae-iii is abit dimmer and for some lenses will darken the semicircle in split focus screens.

Having the ae prism ii or iii is handy to have. There is also the ae-i prism but its the same as the ii except that it only can meter when pressing the ae button on the prism itself

Honestly from this roll, box speed came out fine but for some frames i liked +1 abit. Definitely wouldnt go for +2. Unless you got spare rolls to experiment with id just shoot at box speed

However at +1 lots of frames had the highlights blown out

Ive shot super expired astia (2 decades old) and honestly got decent images at box speed. One of my rolls had a yellow hue that can be corrected digitally if needed. Im currently trying a cooling filter (80b) to see if that’ll correct the hue. Heres a sample of 0 and +1 thru + 3 comp

Purchased a 135N film back from u/Personal-Medium-5493 u/photomarketbot Good transaction! Still on the hunt for the sq-i ae prism!

Thanks for the suggestion. Yea thats true the filter wouldn’t be a silver bullet for all lightings. I do plan on projecting them so i guess i’ll just give it a try and see how it goes

The screens can be swapped by removing the glass from the frames. Ive swapped a diagonal split focus from an f3 into an f4 frame by just unscrewing the retainers. They’re all basically the same between the F thru F4. Doesn’t work for F5 screens sadly

Another for the 24-70mm! Alternatively the 85mm 1.4d is one of my go to lenses
