I started my journey in photography in 1979 with a Fujica ST705. Later, I switched to AX-5 with a full mechanical STX-1 as backup. They are all my good...
(In reply) - That's an older-model (2006) 4/3 camera, and you can do a lot better today in a DSLR body - I assume you got a good price on it? Despite the 14 MP...
I got it from Amazon at about $800 2 months ago. Its 7.5 MP output seems good enough for me to project its photos to a 100" screen. I love the shutter speed...
(In reply) - It was their first real attempt, and shows it. Even a $300 megazoom has more features today for those content with an EVF. There's a battle royal...
It's a pretty solid machine, like I imagine a Pentax Spotmatic but more robust. Not quite as robust as a Nikon FM though, but what is? It has a significant...
(In reply) - I have over a dozen ST701's; including several with the black body and raised chrome lettering (the earlier series). I find it more attractive...
Unquestionably the best looking SLR is the raised-letter black 701, and I will be looking for one. How hard are they to work on? I really think this one is...
(In reply) - For what it's worth, these are the speed markings: B, 1 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1,30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, 1,1000. It should not turn past...
Ok , I'm back ! What a city , Wow . a photographers dream . so much to see and do and take pictures of . I snaped off about 700 pix . I kept around 400 . ...
Well, I just got a great lens for the 701, a Rexagon 28mm. Unheard of and nearly free (like the 701), it has great color. Just do a google image search and...
(In reply) - Time to get an incident meter and learn to use it. Advantages: a). No more batteries for the vast majority of film SLR's - an exception would be...
I just got this lens off eBay but really can't decide if it's good or not. It was obviously sitting around unused for a while: they used gobs of cleaner on the...
Heh, may be your first experience in lens repair, so good thing it's cheap! If you take it apart, be sure to document it and post the pictures online for...
I have listed some rare items on ebay Germany, like bellow, 19mm fisheye and others. 170228703069 170228980509 170228990079 170228992971 170228994242 regards,...
Hi I am wondreing what the asking for a fully functional AX Multi. My son just finished his senior photo class with this camera. But alas now is the time to...
I hope you enjoy these. The lens worked well at low light with moody colors with my Canon XT. I went about 2 stops below for most of them. I got the lens...
Sell sell sell! Quick, before the price goes lower! Kodak will soon stop making film ya know. The US congress will end presedential term limits too, so we can...
Just joined the group. My first real camera was a ST801 purchased new in 1972 or 73. Still have it and all of the slides I took with it. I'd like to bring it...

I recently purchased a Fujica ST-801 with 55mm EBC Fujinon lens. The focus ring is extremely tight, if I turn it end to end a couple times, it does loosen up a...
Does anyone know if the ST-801 uses any type of foam in the prism area ? I've had bad experiences with rotten foam in my Olympus OM1/2 cameras damaging the...
(In reply) - Nearly every SLR has foam around the viewscreen itself as a sealer (the Mamiya Sekor DTL did not, which is why you want to avoid it). This foam...
