Yes the EOS-3 is frame accurate. I've reloaded many rolls this way without
skipping a frame.
However, you *MUST* make sure the short end of the film leader doesn't
cover the IR sensor when you load. If you pull the leader so the long end
just hits the orange mark, you'll notice the I

If you're saying the negative is clear, it means it wasn't exposed to light. Is
the negative completely clear, including the numbers along the top and bottom of
the frame? If so, it would indicate a problem with the processing, rather than
the camera.
Potential camera problems would include: m

I just got off the phone with them. The price is indeed $110, and it is the
same cost whether your dial is broken or still working. After the repair the
dial WILL NO LONGER LOCK, but you will still have the indents or "clicks" as
you turn the dial, so this shouldn't be a big deal.

Hi All,
There was a talk about Vuescan software no too long ago.
So, I'd like to ask users of it - could you tell me more about it - is it
worth $40, do I need it? What does it do that regular scanner software
doesn't do? If I use Photoshop - would Vuescan still be useful?

I think the 00 (along with 1A, 2A, etc) are for use
with half frame cameras, which shoot double the normal
number of 1
Thomas Bantel WROTE:
Many (all?) films even have a frame 00 before frame 0. I don't
know if there are cameras that can actually use this frame.
There are cameras, though, that can routinely squeeze 38 or
even 39 frames out of regular 36 exp roll.

This has almost become silly. If you want more than 36 exposures, buy
another roll of film.
Its a lot cheaper and easier than trying to make the camera do something it
is not suppose to.

Hi,
Just a couple of comments:
> ML3-Ring Flash £299.99
Why not get the MR-14EX I bought mine for £320 and as you are
looking to buy a EOS-3 you will have E-TTL, it can also be used to control
your 550EX flashes if you so wish..

Many tiny little point and shoots do get an exposure
at frame zero, because so little film has to be pulled
