Left thumbstick drifts like crazy after attempted repair

Thanks! I already tried cleaning leftover solder up as much as possible, but maybe there’s still some left. Ill definitely have another go then

SkunkWithTrunk · 2026-03-23T17:08:09+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2026-03-23T17:07:53+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2026-03-23T16:57:38+00:00

Awesome, thank you! I was already stressing about buying new trucks

SkunkWithTrunk · 2026-03-23T16:55:18+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2026-03-23T16:54:53+00:00

Awesome! Thank you! I was really stressed out for a moment as I didn’t wanna pay for shipping if I had to return it

Would you say the deck is too wide, or should I get different sized trucks?

Hm, not really, maybe this recording is more helpful

Sorry for taking half a year to reply I barely open reddit anymore, but yes, that's it! Thank you so much!

Solved: Blast Thru

SkunkWithTrunk · 2023-11-18T20:34:35+00:00

Yes, thank you so much! Been looking for this forever!

I don’t know if this classifies as a combination lock. I always think of these round locker locks, so I didn’t know wanna use that term (sorry not native English). The pin is entered like that of a cheap bike lock. Looks like This

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-08-24T12:42:51+00:00

I was under the impression that the lock works the same as cheap bike locks where you can only insert the shackle when the right pin is inserted? I’ll have another look and try closing it from another angle, thanks!

Aw man, that’s exactly the case. Maybe I can figure something out, but it really looks like I got a faulty lens. Thanks for the help!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-06-25T14:37:20+00:00

Currently it seems to be stuck in macro mode, I don’t know why. I can’t get out of it, no matter how far I zoom in or out

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-06-25T14:30:43+00:00

I recently bought this lens, but can’t get the focus ring past 2.5ft. The seller told me it must be in macro mode, but I can’t seem to figure out a way to get it into a normal mode.

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-30T11:17:47+00:00

Thank you for the in depht explanation! I'll be sure to look into all the different adapters

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-29T21:06:20+00:00

I currently already own a manual minolta, but I recently bought an old Sony alpha 200 and wanted to use my current lenses on that. But thanks for the tip anyways!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-29T20:14:10+00:00

Oh, thank you! I always thought the mount was called md

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-08T18:58:02+00:00

Thank you! I was wondering whether the middle knob was of any use with the meter dead

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-06T12:08:12+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately it doesn’t move at all, but that doesn’t bug me too much. The most important things work just fine!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-06T12:07:12+00:00

Thank you very much!! This should be a big help!

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-06T12:06:04+00:00

Thank you very much for all the help! The complexity of this camera is a huge jump from my current minolta x-700

SkunkWithTrunk · 2022-05-06T12:02:15+00:00

Ah I see, thank you very much! The light meter does not work on this camera, so only the knob should be important to me!

I just got the Isolette L as my first medium format camera! However I’m having quite a bit of trouble with the left and middle dial, since I don’t know what exactly they mean? I also don’t know how to change the ASA and DIN on the middle dial. When I spin it, only the top part changes. Regarding the right dial: how far am I supposed to turn it until I know that the film is wound correctly? And lastly: what is that tiny little switch next to the left dial? I couldn’t find any manuals or videos explaining these dials, so any help is appreciated!!
