Happy New Year everyone! So far I've exposed 5 rolls of film using the 500mm reflex lens I bought used a few months ago. I have a couple of questions that ...
Hi Don, I went to WalMart and picked up a three pack of the LR44 batteries and the Pentax spot meter jumped to life. Not so with the F-1n - I bought an...
Hi Jay, My A-1 .pdf file manual says if your lens is 500mm SSC Reflex, yes you must use stopped down mode hence lever, when stopping down it doesn't matter if...
Jay: Since the lens has no aperture, there should not be any darkening when stopping down on the camera. The lens is fixed at f/8.0, and no matter what, that's...
The corner vignetting is most likely a characteristic of this lens are you using a Hood? is it possible the hood is to long? Actually the viewfinder can't...
Great Harvey, You will be pleased with the spot meter. When I got mine my meter-knowledge was limited so I got a book, "Creative Exposure Control" by Les...

Ran across an interesting comparison between the three currently existing Velvia films, V50, V100, and V100F. Hope it interests you slide shooters. ...
Terje, Nikon shot themselves a bit in the butt with having the AF motor in the body as things like IS became very difficult. And it is my understanding that on...
Jay, You are right. I have two of these and they are by far the best mirror lenses I've ever used and I've used many. Very sharp with high contrast and very...
