You should ignore CDI at all cost since they have the habit of being 180

Yes, turn off auto focus. AF isn't suited for hyper focal focusing. Only

If you don't want/need the extras you might find the body/lens combo for less, but you

Hi,
My name is Rachel and I am a 27yo female from Australia, I am new here and
also to photography. I purchases a MZ-50 to learn on and I plan to upgrade
in a year or so. I didn't want to put too much money into a camera until I
had more of an idea of what I wanted in a camera.
I got a Sigma 28m
Julia,
unless it say's "just CLA'd" (or even then...), ask about EVERYTHING. You
can't be too cautious. I once got a Canonet in which all shutter speeds
worked, but the aperture blades didn't move, and the seller's ad said
"shutter speeds work". Not a word about the aperture!
And don't believe peo
Really? I've looked these items up before, and I do not recall them being
listed as such. Though, I have been wrong before. :)

On the other hand, I've had good luck using both developers with Delta
3200, although my experience with that film is limited. Here's a shot
exposed at 1600 and developed in T-Max as though it was exposed at 3200:

When I first started shooting film seriously more than 25 years ago, I
shot BW almost exclusively because it was essential to the kind of work
I was doing. Now I shoot equal amounts of color and BW. I don't really
think a lot about how a scene translates to BW. But I have developed an

I'm guessing that William and the Mrs. are right, although I'll have
another go at watching my shutter. Seemed to me it stayed open and
closed once, but my eyes are old. In any case, it works. I've been doing
a lot of high speed synch since I bought it with nice results. I did
shoot a frame with t
More like 28mm. I have the 55/4 and am very fond of it.

I may be not the most active ebayer here, but I have to say, it seems to be
*the* place to look for equipment. Most of my photo gear came from there
(LX, a bunch of lenses, a 6x7...). The general rule -- get in touch with the
seller. If he's the guys who ignores questions -- forget about hi
I'm very sorry for you, Cory. But...
Next time try to shoot B&W and do your own processing ;)

Just opened a package of prints I sent off for processing.
Unfortunately, the package has gotten wet in transit and the prints are all
warped and stuck together. We are able to peel them apart but...
The un-sleeved negatives are also a big clump.
I'm so bummed. I think I'm going to bed :(

I can recommend a Crumpler Oh Lord bag. Everything you want to carry around
should fit and you would have room for more, but the bag is quite small, and
unobtrusive (doesn't look like a camera bag). The only thing i don't like
about it are those two wide velcro straps that SCREAM when you open the

No pelican cases yet! That's not a practical way for me to carry my
camera stuff except as for storage.
