Hello All
today i received my new Mamiya C330 that i purchased from Ebay. I read the manual and got some of the stuff but still some of the options dont make sense. First when I look at the prism finder there is a red line appearing at the top of the viewfinder (on lock). Like its not right in the middle but I can see it at the top, its like this red crooked line. Is it supposed to be there even when its on locked mode? its not in the middle like when its on unlocked mode but its still at the top. Also there is a small screen beside ASA which you can change. Do you set that to 100? (im talking about the small screen on the left side of ASA). There is also another screen which you can change and there is 3 different options. One is like this red dot, the other one is like a bulb, and the other one looks like a black dot. Which one should my camera be set on? Also how do I make sure the shutter sounds correctly? I set the shutter to 1 and tried counting, and I hear the shutter sound for 2 seconds. I set it to 2 and I hear it for 1 second. Is this right? Also on the manual I read that the shutter wont be released when its on SINGLE and there is no film inside but mine does. Is there something wrong with the camera?
Also when I look at the viewfinder on the prism finder I see some small black dots is that going to show on my pictures? The lens looks clean I dont know what the dots are though.
