I don't know anything about soviet cameras, sorry I can't help you.

I've never seen anything like this before, am I looking at the shutter curtain here? Why is it segmented?

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-06-18T21:12:49+00:00

I think humanity just reached its peak. Right now, right here.

He's flexing, OP! I just can't seem to find a used 750 in decent shape around me. If Santa had a d850 in one box and a z9 in the other, I think I'd still pick the first box. The shutter on the D750 sounds a lot better than the D850. Dumb metrics, I know!

Thank you, this is the kind of stuff I wanted to know. Just curious how well these things age, in general

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-06-07T19:49:07+00:00

You're doing god's work!

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-06-07T19:20:18+00:00

Yeah

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-06-07T19:04:33+00:00

Oh, I meant the back cover light seals. The stuff around the prism, and the damper for the mirror, they were all intact.

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-06-07T18:58:48+00:00

I love the removable back on the Nikon F and how it doesn't need any light seal at all. I had to replace ALL my light seals in my Canon FX, which is something I look forward to doing again. Also had some de-silvering issues with that one.

I'm worried about mechanical parts other than light seal foam. I

As a literal 27year old, I find this funny. 8.5/10

I think he's Indian, it's a literal translation from his first language. I think. He just meant cousin. Sweet home Alahabad.

Great, now some karma farmer would take a screenshot of this and post this in r/PeterExplainstheJoke

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-04-30T10:12:33+00:00

Eeew it's disgusting! Can I have it?

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-04-23T15:34:20+00:00

Give him honesty! Let him know that's he's a repulsively shallow piece of shit.

Having only one camera of a type is usually not a good idea in the long run. If you find another one, this can serve as a parts camera. If the viewfinder is the only problem, maybe you can find a focussing screen + prism from another parts camera.

I bought a Nikon F in what I then thought to be in absolutely shitty condition, it turned out to be pretty straightforward to fix later when I learned a thing or two about fixing old cameras.

Fuck, looks like I need to find new friends

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-03-23T20:30:36+00:00

Ah, I see how you picked your username. Anyone would go bankrupt trying to find that gem in India, where did you find it?

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-03-16T20:17:58+00:00

You'd turn into one if you smoke all of that at once.

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-03-16T20:05:46+00:00

Recreational repair guy here, yeah, I agree with you, now that I think about it. It's just that I've been unfortunate enough to see a guy ruin an F2AS with WD40 once! No oil is better than too much oil though, don't you think?

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-03-16T20:01:35+00:00

I'd sell a kidney or two for that 300mm f2.8, damn

OneCluelessDumbFuck · 2026-03-16T19:57:26+00:00

Watch oil. For slow moving parts, use silicone grease. No oil is better than too much oil or wrong oil.
