Hello everybody, I have another naive question, for the group (after the one on aperture). The question is "how delicate is a negative"? I'm asking this to...

Hey we should try this sometime. I did it once, with good ol' Parry. It was fun. Any of you doing it? Ken...
Ken, Chat was part of Yahoo Groups since the beginning...however it was recently moved out and I have not been able to get in anymore and make it work. I'll...
I recently got a Canon EF from ebay and it works fine, just that the dial for shutter speeds and the on/off switch are very stiff and sludgy feeling. I'd like...
Giulio, Are these color/C41 negs or black and white? Are these machine or hand processed. Have you tried changing processors? -Lance ... the ... against ... ...
... I wonder... there's the 1994 edition you mention, and a june 2006 one. I wonder if the latter expands on the EOS line, sacrificing info on the rangefinder...
I ahve all 4 and no...it just adds all the new lenses from 84 to 86. The 86 edition is on Christian's site....so you can see ( when it gets fixed) all the...
I have a similar request. After much tinkering with my EF, I've concluded that there's only so much that I'm willing to do by myself so I'd like to find a...
... OK, I got the repair manual yesterday. In fact it is not just a copy of some Canon repair micro fiches, it also has a "general" section that describes all ...
... Hi Lance. I have almost exclusively color, machine processed negatives. I made a simple test: I took two pieces of blank developed film (you usually have...
Hi Vladimir, I have a great respect for your "brain surgery"! You are very brave! Sorry for the stains on your lens. I have heard that stains, dust and fungus ...
... Well, not really. I looked at the instructions for the 85/2.8 "Soft Focus" and there were about 6 pages of text explaining how to take it apart and put it...
... BTW, why does the 400/2.8 have *two* protective glass elements on the front - were they afraid that just one was not "protective" enough? Regards, Vladimir...
Scratches on film are part of everyday life unless you are able to get someone who si running their machines 24/7. I got very frustrated with color film as all...
If you can find a lab that uses a dip and dunk type machine, your negatives will almost always come back scratch-free. My local lab uses one for C41...
There is one more alternative, and it is developing film yourself. With a couple of hundred dollars worth of equipment, E6 is quite manageble at home. I wish...
I do have an example of Shipman's "Canon SLR cameras" from 1977 as well as "the Canon Reflex way" of Leonard Gaunt from 1975, second edition. Gaunt describes...
Ton - Not sure where you heard this from but nothing could be further from the truth. Dust, stains/tarnish, fungus and separation can all have a profound...

I also have one called FD Lenses A Photographers Best Friends 87 pages likely a forerunner of the Lens Work Books. This has descriptions of all the FD lenses...
Ton may have heard someone say this about the front element, to which there is a certain amount of truth, to a point. For the rear and internal elements it's...
I have the Shipman too - nice book: "How to select and use Canon SLR cameras" Went through yearly printings at least up until 1984, but I don't know how much...
Ah, so there's an '87. Is the T-90 in it? Does he have anything interesting to say about 300TL use? I wonder when the last one was. I bet 1987 was it. Ken ...
