Hi, I have just uploaded a major change to my Fujica Website. http://pentax-manuals.com/fujica/fujica.htm Many thanks to all of the group who supplied photos...
(In reply) - A column identifying the battery(ies) required for each camera model would be useful. I made a copy in Word of what the old Toptown site had up,...
Hi, I tried to keep the basic table fairly simple. The battery details and the variations with as many photos as I have found are on the detail pages for each...
(In reply) - I would suggest putting the "Ingwaz" site in LINKS as a replacement for the now-gone Toptown link, and adding your new one there as well. Your...
Hey Kim-- The Fujica additions, and the Pentax stuff--as usual--are fantastic. I don't have any criticism; both sites are tops where finding information is...
Hi CJ, Welcome to my portfolio!! F15/F16 taken off the coast of Florida. F4 and others in the med off Cyprus. Shacks -some taken on the 40th Anniv Tour and a...
Hi all, I read that the M42 mount fujinon 55mm f/2.2 lens is a 4 element 4 group lens. I am surprised to see a 4/4 design for a normal lens; Some slow normal...
First, thanks to everyone who replied to my question about the automatic aperture control on a Porst Unizoom lens. I bought 3 x LR44 batteries for our AZ-1 as...
Well my 1979-vintage AZ-1 takes 3x LR44 (or equivalent, 357 etc) ... either your camera is a later version, it's been modified, or it had the wrong batteries...
I wish to warn those who are in love with Fujica products. There is an Ebayer with the call sign SFNET5456 who is using a computer program to outbid legitimate...
... ============================================================== That's why about 25 percent of wins on EBay are BIN (Buy it now). I've never needed snipe...
(Addendum) - This example (below) is taking place a full 5 days before the auction close, and typifies the nonsense that I referred to earlier. I'll say it...
I totally agree, Philip I like to be online to submit a bid manually near the end of the auction, but I use a sniping service when I'm unable to be at my...
(In reply) - I always look at the bid page to see who's there and what they're doing. If you have a maximum price in mind, I guess it doesn't matter, but when...
I don't use it either. Although I see nothing illegitimate about using snipeware. As long as the high bidder pays why should it matter how the high bid gets...
Today, i just bought a ST801 from a yard sale for $3.00 and i'm after changing the battery and putting in some film... i'm afraid that it doesn't work... It...
(In reply) - First, unscrew the lens and put it aside. Open the back of the camera. Looking into the front of the camera, the mirror should be down at 45...
Hm, thanks first of all. I opened it up and found that the mirror was not stuck mid cycle. The shutter doesn't move the mirror at all. The shutter speed dial...
Hi all, i just buy on eBay an AX-5. I've not tried it with film but playing with it I found 2 problems: - The depth of field button (at least I think it is the...
(In reply) - In a "Time" exposure (or using "B" or "bulb" on the shutter speed dial and holding the release down) the shutter remains open as long as you hold...
Okay, first again: thank you. The mirror is currently down, 45 degrees and I can focus without any problems thru the eyepiece with the lens in. So I tried...
(In reply) - EMail me directly at pickexpert@... and I'll give you my repair person's name and e-mail - I can give you then some general idea of his...
Hi Philip, I need your help. My camera Fujica AX-5 has problem recently. The quick-return mirror does not work sometime. I did not know why. I have to warm it...
(In reply and trimmed) - The info that I provided is earlier posts is strictly generalities - I relegate all of my repairs to others, and I only have M42's,...
hello. i'm new to this group. i've been trying to figure out how to open up this lens. before experimenting with counter-intuitive approaches, i'm hoping...
hello. there's been like *zero* activity in this group of late. i hope noone minds if i get something started with a somewhat off-topic post. . . . i've been...
(In reply) - That particular lens is rare, and personally not something I would risk working with myself. Just my own opinion ... ... hope ... post. . . . ......
