between an 1/8" and 1/4" thick. could those suffice for making replacement
light seals on my Mamiya c330?

My Hass PME is in need of Re Calibration to update from the use on the older
View finders to the current accute matte (I'm not getting just a 1 stop
difference but rather a couple which creates a real problem with my typical
use of 100 speed films). I need a reasonable source of ...

Ok, so I just purchased a Hasselblad 501CM w- polaroid back and was
playing around with it
today.
Why would I get different reading from different light meters? Two

I dropped my first roll of 120 slide film with Wolf Camera, atlanta and they
charge $10 plus taxes with no mounting.
is this a normal price to pay? what would a Pro shop in Atlanta charge for
the same?

I returned an item to KEH well within the 14 day no-hassle return and still
havent seen any of my money restored to my account even after a full month
since the return. Two calls to them met with a "oh, it just went out today,
it should be in your account tomorrow-day after." and ...

Hi, I'm trying out an ETRSI I have on loan, but do not have an
instruction book.  I have picked up a lot of information on this
newsgroup already, but I'm still a little puzzled.
I'm using the camera with a waist level viewfinder, and I'm having a

Hey all. I like photography and have done a good bit of it with 35mm
but know little of this medium format realm. I frequent auctions and
buy things that i can do well reselling. Today I got a Mamiya C220
with a lense that says "Mamiya-Sekor 1:2.8 f=80mm no.789144" and

Hey all-
I have had a Mamiya 6 for 2 weeks now.. Now the frame indicator is stuck on
"4" and when I load a roll of film, it never engages for the first frame. I
changed batteries, pressed that "emergency release" button all to no avail.

I have recently gotten an AGFA Isolette II with Apotar lens 6x6 and on the
way is a AGFA Record II with Solinar lens 6x9. I have shutter prob with the
Isolette so I have not shot it yet...I am having fun fixing up these old

I recently acquired a beater Rolleiflex ~1950.  I been using it
and processing my own B&W film for the past two months, and the
main problem I have with it is that there is an odd light leak
in the camera which exposes a narrow strip across the second

Does anybody know a source for the Arsat 30mm fisheye lens for the Pentacon
6 mount in the UK? I am very reluctant to buy this direct from the Ukraine.

I'm very interested by the SL66 range.
Due to the camera bellows wich can be perfect for the close up
photography that I would like to do with the square format.
I really love to make close-up portraiture.

i am currently investigating if i would buy a used pentax 67II.
I currently own a 67 and am pleased with it.
But i do some theatre work work where measuring light by hand is almost not
possible that's one of the reasons to upgrade.  I have some qs about it for

Anyone have experience with this 120mm soft focus lens?  I assume it's for
portraiture but 120mm seems a bit short to me.  Older Pentax literature
suggests using teleconverter(?) with it for "interesting" effects, etc.
Commentary and comparisons with other soft focus mf lenses very ...
