Hello to my fellow Fujica ST series camera owners. I am looking for a reliable repair service to do work on my Fujica ST-series bodies. I can get mirror foam...
Hi Jim I think that Fujica SLR's can be bought so cheaply now on ebay that it wouldnt be worth your while paying for someone to repair your current ...
(In reply) - Since I own seven ST701's (and a couple for parts) I would disagree - much of the time the meters need repair, and since they take two 1.5v cells,...
I recently acquired a Fujica ST801 SLR. I think it may have a problem with the meter and am trying to verify that. The meter seems to work, but the problem...
The ST801 should be able to meter with a light press on the shutter button. The meter swithch needs adjustment - there's a good chance that over the eons the...
Hi everyone, I just joined today and would like to introduce myself. I'm German, studied English and Cultural Sciences, and live in Leipzig (former East). And...
(In reply) - I have 7 ST701's, and can refer you to someone for service. It sounds like the film is not being pulled straight to the takeup spool. While you...

I just got a 200mm vivitar lens, and as I was attaching it to my camera and dry-firing with it, I couldn't help but wonder--how the heck do you guys deal with...
Kitty: I like big heavy cameras! A 200mm Vivitar lens isn't among the heaviest lenses out there. Not to sound demeaning but, I'd suggest holding the camera...
(In reply) - If yours is the 200mm Vivitar f/3.5 with the built-in sliding lens hood, that's about as light as they come for M42. You might consider using a...
Hey this is what kids are for! Stand a child in front of you and plant the elbow of your front arm on the child's shoulder, meanwhile steadying the centre of...
RCB, Ray and Philip, Thanks for the responses. Wow, if the Viv is as light as they come, I can only imagine how much others must weigh! I've been holding the...
Hi Kitty...I've used long lenses for decades. One of the greatest thrills in photography is capturing details in a scene that you can't see visually while at...
(In reply) - The monopods are quite light and collapse down to a portable size to hook on a belt - it's a sensible solution. A tripod is bulkier, and not...
