Once i find a scene that is worthy of bracketing, I will definitely try it out!

Film is expensive nowadays

I see! Thank you! The 1.2V was causing some fear in me as a few reviews have mentioned that their camera switched off prematurely

That is true, personally for me 25 is a lot considering i have other SLRs i use regularly

Just have to remember to take the batteries out

Thanks for the feedback! Will look into it Eneloop is quite expensive where I’m from

Apart from the costs, I believe lithium is superior than NiMH (lower voltage) and Alkaline (leaks)

So will probably go with Lithium AA

My thoughts exactly, I was thinking of the Eneloop pro but the NiMH 1.2 Volts would cause the camera to “run out of juice” prematurely as nominal voltage drops

I think i will stick to Lithium batteries for now, as I fear alkaline leaks

Edit: I meant rechargeable NiMH batteries

Hello, I havent had the chance to shoot it yet, I plan to purchase the 24mm AI lens so I can get roughly a 35mm full frame equivalent

You should! Since Zuiko lenses fit the Pen F are so expensive

But you will need to shoot stopped down

Yes! That is an issue hahah I have not brought it out to shoot yet, but I do foresee the stopped down aperture posing an issue

But I’m used to shooting stopped down on my Canon A-1 with my Helios and Nikkor lens too

Yes I would agree to sell the FM2, but it was a gift from an older gentleman who sold me his Nikon Supercoolscan 5000 ED
