Hi, I've been a reader of this group since discovering and playing with my dad's ST801. Sadly the light meter worked only intermittently...It might work for...
(In reply) - I have a whole bunch of Fujica ST701's, and 4 of them have been fully serviced. While my guy can generally get the meter working, we're talking...
After perusing the schematics of the fujica repair manual I realised that any repair efforts would be highly likely to result in a camera suitable for parts...
If the camera works I would just use a light meter or the sunny 16 rule. In fact the sunny 16 rule is a great way to check any meter. On a bright sunny day the...
After selling a few duplicates on eBay I think that today I'll just list the entire collection. I have had it for a long time and I just have to much stuff. I...
Sorry that should have read ST-605ii. Steve ... From: fujica35mmslrs@yahoogroups.com [mailto:fujica35mmslrs@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of djohnmccarthy Sent:...

Hello, I am very attracted to these Fujicas. My favorite body is the Oly OM-1, but it is a fragile camera-- not so with the old-school fujicas, from what I am...
Discussion often attracts further discussion, and even some attendees of the Zenit Group are adding to it on the Spotmatic thread. It's difficult to get into...
John, Just curious what you mean about the OM-1. I carried an OM-1 every day for 12 years, and I've never seen a tougher camera. Not trying to start a flame ...
(In reply) - Allow me to do a broad statement: M42 makers such as Fujica and Pentax diverged in their later mounts, with each doing a bayonet, as well as...
Hello, I also have 2 om-1's and they are generally togh camera's, although the Fujica gives a lot solid feeling than an OM-1. While being of the same time, the...
As I said, I carried an OM-1 for years, and loved it. But these days, my main camera is a ST605N. Even if I found a good bargain on an OM-1, all of my lenses...
No offense taken. I have broken every camera I have owned. And, if you doubt me, I keep them all in a box marked DOA. All except one-- the sole survivor is a...
John, If you ever need to clear out some space, just send me that box! I love to putter around with cameras, and I've even managed to repair a few. It's fun to...
... I wrote on rangefinder forum that I actually feel like I am making a movie when I use digital. I typically take 100 to 300 shots, pick the promising ones,...
The digital isn't mine; it is my mother's. I got it for her possibly as a way to assure some longevity. ... love to ... what makes ... shutter ... lenses. ......
Hello, everybody, I'm new in this group and just reactivated my Fujica ST-901. Years ago I used to shoot with my ST-801 quite a lot. But one day this fine ...
Hi again, I am liking the idea of the Zeiss Icarex camera; it is a former Voigtlander design that was recovered from the forgotten list. Its a tough, and...
(In reply) - The Icarex ALSO came in M42, so you have to make sure that you're getting one in M42 mount: http://www.cameraquest.com/zvicarex.htm Getting it...
(In reply) - Have you ever tried using this camera? There are two high-end sellers on EBay listing the camera for over $200, and those are in great condition....
John: The Icarex was available in its own unique breech lock lens mount and M42. The first variant (Icarex 35) had a removable prsim and while the later...
Hi, is anyone familiar with this lens? Is it any good? What would be a reasonable price to pay for it? Thanks! Kitty http://www.geocities.com/catpurr.rm ...
(In reply) - The Mamiya-Sekor is a lens I'd recommend staying away from. Mamiya's mechanicals are tricky to work with, and the lens internals are particularly...
Thanks for the tip, Philip. I just got the opportunity to swap a couple of wrong purchase lenses I have with one, I'll wait for something else to come up,...
It would be great if we could make a "clearing house" page for the quality and compatibility of each 42mm lens size for each 42mm camera. As a parallel...
