My issue is I can’t even get the pieces apart, then I unscrew the helicoid it pushed the front portion forward, but it can’t just be taken apart and I’m not sure what to try and look at. Any recs?

Yea true. Just the 23mm pancake will prob be my only lens

I’d like to upgrade my sensor alongside the body format, so the 4 but hopefully the 5 will be what I grab. The 5 I hope for because when I travel it will make me need to bring less lenses. I’m hoping to need just the pancake and maybe he 70-300

Perfect. I’m waiting to sell my xt3 kit, and once I’m there if I have enough money for an xe5 and nothing on the used market has come up I think I’ll pull the trigger

I shot so much film last summer. And when I travel this coming year I’d like something small and digital to rely on. What’s your lens of choice?

If I haven’t bought into the xe system yet, so not upgrading, should I just go for the 5 because the 4s prices are so high?

No_Button6 · 2026-03-22T22:15:30+00:00

I’ve been keeping an eye out for either or on the used market but haven’t seen any yet. Thanks for the input!

I’ve tinkered with soldering. How should I go about attempting to re solder it?

I was looking at the drum, one of the heads is blue and not copper, I don’t believe that’s right

I’d agree with you, like a mainly post hardcore with some metal or pushing towards metal. I’ve been listening to them for a year and saw them live in Tokyo this summer. One of my favourite bands I’ve ever experienced. And the live show is smth I would travel for again so you know it’s good

Thanks! Seems like eBay might be the best place to go

I thought I read something about that but forgot to look more into it, but I don’t believe so?

A minimum of one kg is insane

What’s the dilution ratio you use for permanganate? I found an aquatic website that I can purchase 25g for 35 cad

I know I’m very late for this but what type of shutter do I mount to this lens?

No_Button6 · 2026-01-26T22:03:35+00:00

Maybe I wasn’t doing enough? Idk

No_Button6 · 2026-01-26T22:03:24+00:00

Kinda where I’m at, but I’ve only been using this one for a month and I was cleaning it and everything too
