Most drives today are build for conductive cooling through metal to other parts of the box where air may circulate by fan or by convection. Heat is a concern,...
I have a Magic Lantern book available. It covers the maxxum 800si Professional 35mm SLR, and the entry level Maxxum STsi and QTsi. Magic Lantern books go way...
Over time, I've had 4 or 5 external enclosures. Check you temperatures and you will find that your externals regardless of case will run 20-30 hotter than...

I took two rolls of film with my Minolya srt 101 today, and I took it to the one hour photo and the film was blank. How could this have happened it was new...
Hi, It sounds like the film was not loaded correctly and you shot blanks. If the leader of the film was dark it was processed correctly. Assuming your...
I agree with your assessment of the lenses for the Autocord – they are amazingly sharp! My Autocord did not come with a strap and after a couple of years of...

The DVD disk media is TDK DVD+R 4X. There is great variability among the 3 (now 4) computers and speed of copy. For a few disks I have to stop the attempted...

Got my A700 in Feb and from day one it had a small blotch -- not a dust bunny but a clear dry "stain" from oily aerosol from factory or my first lens change or...
