I'm starting to shoot more with my old Pentax ME-Super and would like
to get a new/used flash to operate with it.  I notice that the flashes
from that era, the AF series, don't have red eye reduction.  Am I
wrong on this topic?  Can anyone recommend a flash to use with this

I have added some butterfly photos to my site.  Take a look and tell me what
you think?

I started out with a site I could put some of my interests on.  So far

Does anyone know of a source for the winder contacts strip located
under the bottom cover on the rewind side of the ME Super?  One of my
contacts is coroted and makes intermittant contact with my winder.
I suppose I could buy a junker and strip it.

Maybe somebody can help me.
I need some dimensions from a Leicaflex lens mount.
(metric dimensions would be helpful.)
The minor diameter of the lens flange, dimension “A”

I was given a nikkor 24-120 from a friend to use and keep if I like it. The
lens is brand new, he only used it for a couple of rolls. He gave it up a
couple of years ago as he says that it's optical performance is mediocre. I
used the lens yesterday, but yet didn't have the results ...

    I once owned a Nikon FA, and bought for it a cheapish motor winder - it
was not a Nikon one. I long since got rid of the FA (someone stole it),
but still have this motor winder this is useless to me.
Any ideas what other bodies this might fit? I will sell it, but would

I'm almost ready to spend several thousand dollars on camera gear.
Given the fact that many local photography stores can't come within
15-20 percent of the prices available at reputable online stores, what
do I get for the extra bucks if I stick with the local dealer? Can, or

I have an EOS 630 and it has been a great camera for 14 years but it
has stopped "talking" to any of my lenses. No AF or apature control.
Cannot set to AF. It doesn't seem to know there is a lens there.  
Wondering if anybody ever heard of this problem and if it's now FUBAR.

I used my canon EF 28-105/3.5-4.5 to take some snaps as a guest at a
wedding recently.  The out-of-focus point-light sources are so
pleasingly rendered that I am thinking of upgrading my 28/2.8 to the
28/1.8.  I know the 2.8 is said to be sharper, but the zoom produced

Within few days, i'm going to Goa and Pangin (India) and I'll stop at
Gatwick/Heathrow (I don't know yet).
I need advice about the best place/price to buy a Nikon D-70.
thanks in advance

Cody,

Do step-down rings cause vignetting with wideangle lenses? For example,
putting a 52mm filter on 58mm threads via a step-down ring.

as I see my lens collection growing, I am discovering that each lens I own
has a different filter diameter. I have all my lenses with a UV filter on,
but I only have my old (and a bit tired) 58mm CPL and need a 50mm, a 72mm
and in the near future a 67mm CPL. I do not have any other ...

I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has bought a Nikon F6 and what
they think of it. There are numerous "reviews" on the web, but most are
from people who have never seen one. I'd be interested to hear from
anyone who has actually paid for one, and is using it, rather than ...
