Thats great these are still arriving. I figured mine got emptied out in the mail. I have no need for 120 either, nor did I ask for it. If the silly tube ever...
I just got mine, with four rolls of 120. As I said, I'll find a use for them, although I certainly would have preferred 35mm. My tube had a big dent in it, but...
Got my new camera and lens. Love the feel and look of the 300, cosmetically, it looks flawless, glass is clean, some very small dings on the very inner most...
Intact tube in the mailbox today, 4 rolls, 160NC and 400NC a roll of 135 and 120 each. I'm pretty sure I checked both boxes on the form since I have a...
Keep in mind that right hand display in the viewfinder is an LCD which normally relies on translucent window next to the pentaprism for illumination, and it...

... Yes, this is why I am keeping those useless (at least to me the only thing they do is to leave a smudge on my glasses) things - one day I will be rich :-) ...
Sorry to hear people are getting stuff they can't use from Kodak. That won't help their promo of the new formula film. I ordered both, since I use several 120...
I have used A-series eyecups and dioptres on my T-90 with no problem... they work as well if not better than the dedicated versions... Eric Goldstein -- On...

Unless it's for quick use, freeze it. I freeze *everything* except Polaroid, and I'm using some film that expired in the early 80's which looks fine. If...
I use a couple of Vivitar Series 1 lenses. The 28-105 zoom is ok, but lacks a good distance scale for manual flash work and, being a push-pull type, has a...
Just can't stop myself I had to tell you folks, I just can't believe how many different mounts can be fitted to EOS even with AF auto confirmation, even oldie...
Was that free Kodak film thing just US only? Where was it (coupons or sign up?) available? Maybe I was not around when this post started, but where did you...
Have a Canon Pellix that calls for a 1.3 v battery....just happen to have a couple of extra 1.35v batteries because I use them on several FTb's and others. Can...
Yes, I use the A-series eye cup and it works very good. Looks a bit old-school but does the job well. It also has a tight find and has never fallen off....
Bill, Just yesterday, I got back some slides taken with the built-in meter in my FT that was powered by a 1.35 volt hearing aid battery. They all looked great....
To my knowledge, there is no small voltage difference. The TX and FTB and an enormous number of cameras of the era all used the 625 Hg cells and they all...

Well a brand new fresh Merc cell puts out 1.4 volts so no a 1.35volt hearing aid battery won't be a problem the thing with Merc cells is not so much the...
Mark, One of the reasons why I use zinc-air hearing aid batteries is that they have a discharge curve nearly identical to mercury cells. They start out at...
I should have seperated the two thoughts Ben I know the Zinc Air hearing aid batteries are a good option for Merc. replacement. When I typed out my last post I...
There is a difference of opinion as to whether zinc-air cells do work well as HG replacements. Some think as you do, others think that a 3-6 month use life and...

Though I am still a member of this group and read it periodically, I no longer possess any of my FD gear. I thought I had sold it all, but came across some...
The best kind of info Eric. Personally testing the cells with a non loading volt meter. I bought a number of NEW Merc cells back in 2001 when the supply was...
Ok, it is because you tested under no load, which means the information is of no relevance ;-) Seriously, refer to the chart in the PDF for accurate...

KEH let me down, the T90 is essentially inoperable for most of its functions. They're replacing it but this is a pain in the ass, I'd intended to make use of...
The biggest problem with KEH is their turn around time on repairs can sometimes be rather long. It was about 3 weeks from the time I sent my T90 in until I got...
Check out auction 110063081799: a Canon Marine Capsule A. First time I see one on e-bay. Something tells me this will command a HIGH price. -- MIGUEL FARAH...
Thanks very much for sending this along... I had never seen one. The build quality of the FD stuff was just amazing... I really don't know that today's Leica...
