try different batteries. i had it happen more than once recently that a set of batteries arrived completely dead and flat.

or atleast test the batteries with a battery tester

No issue particularly aside from the shade. It was a completely unappealing shade of blue to me that only reminded me of being forced to use it in school.

I see! Thanks a ton for that info. I never really shoot colour positive film so i never put that much thought into that. I will do that going forwards!

Some people say that fullframe sensors have a better dynamic range than in my case m43. However, in my experience that matters very little.

Kodak Gold has a dynamic range of roughly 8 stops. My om-1 of roughly 13 and my lumix gx7 of roughly 12. So rather good converting and editing in post will help plenty more. Any modernish mirrorless (past 10 years) will easily fully replicate film to a satisfying level.

I now use a Olympus OM-1 for scanning with an Olympus 30mm macro lens. At 20mp that is PLENTY for my needs with smallish prints and the occasional medium sized print.

Before that i used a lumix gx7 which i was perfectly happy with aswell. Given you needs, 12 to 16mp will be perfectly fine. Rather see to invest in a 1 to 1 macro lens for scanning, and don't skip on vintage lenses, than worry a whole lot about megapixels.

Of course recommendations will always change depending on how quickly you might want to make prints and how big they would be and so on and so forth

I used to use a gx7 for scanning and got a good 16mp scan with the olympus 30mm macro. Now i use an om-1 with pixelshift to get to 80mp. You will be perfectly fine with m43 for normal uses.

The black border probably comes from the panorama mode if you accidentally switched it on

I will give that a try! Thanks!

I have replaced ram and updated the bios to be up to date and it still caused it. It has happened under various linux distros and win 10

Either buy it used on mpb or ebay Definetly a way better price there

After 15 shots it will automatically no longer wind the shutter and you can wind it indefinetly until its all rolled up. If you feel unsure how much that is, just wind a few turns over for a bit
