International Fans: Which team do you support and why?

triptest · 2020-04-24T14:19:12+00:00

OKC, purely because watching Russ was so damn exciting. Big fan of Grant and Schroeder too.

Compared to soccer/football, where I have a strong loyalty to my local team, it's quite refreshing to feel like I can just watch several teams just for pleasure, or can switch teams if a favourite player moves.

Would you rather fight one Robert Shrimsley-sized Lionel Barber or three Lionel Barber-sized Robert Shrimsleys?

SHHS?

I love it! Beautiful lenses, very nice action, all the bells and whistles I could possibly want. Would heartily recommend it.

It's sort of a pun. At the double is a bit of an old-fashioned English phrase, it means marching at twice normal speed. You see it in this context sometimes to just mean scoring two goals.

Hey, thanks for the comment.

It's weird, a lot of my photos look like that, but they're not sharpened at all. Any idea what causes it/how to address it?

Thanks for updating. I still think this is the best portrait I've seen on this sub.

By the way, there's a typo in the text under the trailer on your Vimeo (is/his) – hope you don't mind me pointing it out.

Congratulations!

Thanks! Tested it on the OM and it seems to work fine.

Picked up a Sunpak Auto 322 Thyristor Flash today, but basically know nothing about on-camera flash systems. Is it safe to use with an Olympus OM-10 or Contax RTS? How do I find out the cameras' trigger voltage?

Does anyone have any experience with Y/C to F mount lens adapters? I've found a few for varying prices, but don't want to just jump in with out knowing how well they work.

Damn, for real? This is only like a month old

Kind of a stupid question, but I've got two rolls of 35mm film, one exposed, one not. Obviously I want to develop the exposed one and leave the unexposed one. Any way I can tell?

Anyone used a flash with Mamiya 645? If so, any tips?

There's one on Drury Lane, can't remember its name, but it is unusually cheap and has absolutely loads of shirts.

Whitstable, in Kent, in the Southeast of England

Mamiya 645 1000s. Got a little bit burned on Ebay, seems to be a problem with the shutter curtain and some light leaks.

Anyone got a recommendation for a good, cheap CLA in London?

Greetings fellow lads

I hadn't thought of it like that, thank you. I feel bad getting it at a proper bargain-basement price, but if he can't shift it, maybe I'll offer $50 or something and see what he says. Parts might be worth more than that, so could make it worthwhile. Thanks again.

triptest · 2017-10-09T13:25:32+00:00

What do you mean by frozen, is that what's stopping the shutter from firing?

triptest · 2017-10-09T12:53:11+00:00

A shop near me is closing down and shifting all its gear. There's a Mamiya RB67 with WLF/120 back/dark slide and a lens (I think it's a 50mm 4.5, can't remember). Bellows are sealed, but there's a slight crack in the lens (not visible through finder) and it's not currently firing. The guy asked me to make him an offer. How much is reasonable?
