It's been a few years since I last used my Contax 35mm film camera.  One day
I took the camera out and shot a 24exp roll in one hour.
Was expecting that my good old camera will give the excitement again but I

Spring cleaning!
I have a new, still in package DK-6 eyecup.

I bought it for my 8008 and never used it.

I'm looking for a place that rents Canon L glass.  Want to try a 70-200 f/2.8L IS USM for a weekend before I sell other lenses to make room for it.

Does anyone know of any source of this film in any size?  Konica-Minolta

larger slides as well and I have some 2 1/4 I would like to scan as well as 35.
The spec says it will do 16 - 35mm slides at once.
Anyone have experience with this one?  How about the software dust removal ...

More of a random thought than anything else, but then I wondered, what

You're told by the manual to turn IS off when using a tripod, but what
if you're using a tripod on a windy day?

I am planning to go for a Digital SLR and have in mind -
1. Canon 350 D
2. Olympus E300
3. Pentax *ist DL / DS

In another group someone raised the spectre their camera may have an error
in its auto focus.
I slapped together this page to help make a few tests to see if its the lens

I just talked with a guy who thought there might be problems with
developing 1600 speed film at the usual retail minilabs, and he said that
