hi, i got a lubitel on eBay and am having trouble - when i cock the shutter and hit the release it only releases about halfway and "sticks" there, leaving the...
Sounds to me like the shutter brake is snagging. Here are your repair options in reverse order: Send the shutter to me, and I'll fix it for $15, so long as ...
hi im new here and what an excelent group this is my lubitl was suffering from a tight lens and so i adjusted it as suggested in some other posts that works...
Remember, you have to adjust the position of the upper and lower lens relative to each other as well. If the upper lens isn't out far enough, you need to...
How much of the actual image area do you see in the WLF? I know it's less than what you get on the 6x6 image, but does anyone have an idea of aproximately (or...
It's definitely less than what you'll get on film. However, since the screen on the Lubitel isn't a true groundglass screen- it is a rather large field lens...
... I'd strongly suggest getting a 4x4 TLR like a Yashica 44 for doing superslides. They come up on ebay quite often, and Macochrome 100 E6 slide film is quite...
I shoot 6x9 slides occasionally on an old Agfa Clack. No one knows what the settings are, but by ear, the shutter seems to be about 1/30 and the f/stop, by ...
A somewhat tricky, but sensible solution though. Using a an ND filter would in some way mimic the older colour films, in terms of speed at least. Some box...
The solution is even less tricky if one wants to shoot print film since exposure errors can be corrected to a certain extent. You also have to keep in mind...
The ND method reminds of one solution which Polaroid used in the early 60s when they introduced a new set of high-speed Polacolor films. Instead of rendering...
Wish I knew of the Lee product before. Would have saved a few hours of trolling for the Series V ND filter (which seem to be rather rare) on eb*y. I still...

This morning I fixed the focus on my Lubitel 166U. I think the focus must have gone wrong recently since I checked the focus two years ago. Infinity focus...
Hi, I'm glad to have found this group. I just bought my first medium format camera, a lubitel. Actually I bought 2, one used one and one new one on ebay. I...
Welcom, Too bad about the rip off. I've seen that dealer try to sell them for $78. He's managed to sell a few for that price, believe it or not. There is no...
i bought some kodak film. when the feeder strip ends and the actual negative starts feeding through the camera the film gets jammed. anyone ever have a problem...
What kind of Lubitel do you have? Lubitel 1, Lubitel 2, 166, 166B or 166U? I've never heard of this problem and it is difficult to imagine what the cause...
After fixing the focus on my Lubitel, I got a picture back confirming the problem. It's the picture of a mountain in the Octogonzo folder. I focussed the top...
i have a lubitell 166b. i checked the tension plate to see if anything is bent it seems alright. i am concerned with a little corner. i will post up a picture...
There are those who have said that the sharpness of the Lubitel is equal to that of the Hasselblad. This is no small claim. I have surfed websites over and ...
Welcome to the group! Congratulations on your Lubitel. It is an excellent camera to introduce you to medium format. What have you been shooting in the past?...
....hit there, good afternoon from the Netherlands. Just came back from a nice holiday in Czech Republic and in those countries my eyes are always open for old...
