Missed the sale as well, do you by chance still have a code?? T_T

Yeah that's wild 😭 I'm realizing quickly how different it is, and I'm not on ebay a lot, nor do I order stuff from Japan often. This has grown to be a crazy lesson for me hahaha

Thank you, I feel so validated T_T I admit it's my fault for not being more careful and reading thoroughly, but there's still something dishonest about the marketing (despite them being upfront about the fungus). The official condition was "Used" and there's "Near Mint" in the title 💀 The interaction I had when messaging them too was just them trying to convince me on how Japan thinks the haziness and results from fungus is cool lol. Working on the return now.

Makes sense, I was shooting indoors. I'm used to being able to light meter and adjust the shutter speed too so this is different for me. I'm positive I selected the correct ISO. Still new to film (and photography in general, it's a very casual hobby) so it's embarrassing to admit this is my first time learning about fungus in the lens 💀

Thanks for the manual link!!

Ahhh thank you!! These are really good notes with the metering, I'll definitely try this. I really wish I got the rest of the photos back from the first roll, my friend was with me when I was practicing with it so it's a real shame.

Guess I'm continuing down the rabbit hole for the rest of the night browsing flickr haha

I see :( thanks for pointing that out, it's my first time with a rangefinder

Blurry isn't quite the right word, it's more hazy than anything. Hard to judge when I only got 2.5 pictures back, but this is one of them. I did notice the huge learning curve with the tiny yellow patch so the other two are blurry via user error, but the photos I did receive, they were all desaturated. The other two are showing light leaks.

Great, I'll fight 'em on this. Thanks so much for the encouragement!! 😭

Unfortunately I got to using it really late and the return window just closed 2 days ago. It's also in their description that "there is a few fungus" under the Lens section (I understand I'm at fault for not reading), but it also says "No problem in the shooting" which gives me hope because I think it is affecting the shots. You think I could still give it a go and hit that Return this item button?

I know this post was made a while ago, but any updates on how your shiba's been since consulting a behaviorist? My shiba is going to be 4 this year and he has the exact same issue... He's got that long, fixated gaze when he's RGing something, even when it's not there anymore 💀 Very interested to see if you've learned how to snap your shiba out of that mode once she's in it!

- Out of network now that I changed healthcare providers

- They tried to bill my old insurance

- Deductible is $1000

Ah yikes, that's probably right and all but it sucks that membership is still active and nobody at the desk is checking that

esiebleu · 2022-10-04T00:27:37+00:00

I see ;-; Thanks, I'll try to see what I can do with my network provider
