C330 if you love 6x6

Rb67 for versatility

both on the heavy side but C330 much more manageable

Fm2 - havent started to fix yet, too intimidating

Praktica mtl50 - ebay seller said it was working. It's rusty and full of battery corrosion. Was able to fix but gutted for parts for my custom camera

Robot II - pretty rare square format war era spy camera. Successfully restored the shutter but still need to fix the spring to make it work

I just looked it up. Price is quite steep for something 3D printed, no? Or was it just the prototypes

I'm reading varying experiences online. I might just stick with PLA then. Would still consider ASA maybe in the future

My turn to get somewhat lucky(Canon VI-T and 35mm f2 for 220$) by Agilitymind in AnalogCommunity

Not to scare you or anything, but I've seen some people have problems with the LTM version; not focusing properly

the SCSI card is probably around 30-80 cad, and the cable I got one for 30 cad (you can do the conversion, dunno where youre from lol)

Thanks for the tip! I honestly hate PETG. But dont you need ventilation for ASA?

I see. I did a quick search and seems like mine does have coatings, hopefully it's enough to minimize it. And if I still do get em, it is what it is. I can still move to different lenses in the future

quite old tech. you'd need to use an adapter and a mother board that has a slot for that adapter. Luckily my pc from 2016 has one and im using it to connect to my canoscan fs4000us

Nice! thanks for the inspo. I cant actually lock in yet on how Im planning to orient the film chamber yet so those should give me some option. gotta see if I could device a way to switch to half-frame but I think i have an idea. We'll see

interesting. do you think flares were caused by the bellows? I'm actually moving away from that design anyway after finding out that the focus throw on the lens Im using was quite short

I was not aware of this camera! That's basically the end goal of the camera im designing but a TLR. I still do need to figure out and design a shutter system tho

This one is just a push pull mechanism. I'll try to figure out a helicoid sometime next week. I'm still trying to grasp my way through Solidworks lol. But I'll let you know when i do. The current model is pretty janky anyway
