problem

Hi there! I'm using a film camera canon eos-1n with a grip (power driver booster e1) since last year and I was so happy to find such a great camera! But since last week I'm having an issue with it. After turning the camera on, the shutter realases by itself. After that I can't take anymore...

Hi everyone I have recently purchased a Canon A1 When looking through the viewfinder, the four corners appear to be getting darker progressively over time. As a result of this, I removed the focusing screen and noticed darkness on each corner as expected. I have fitted a new focusing screen and...

So I've just purchased my first Hasselblad, a 500 EL, with a back (A12) and waist level viewfinder. It came without a lens, and in my excitement to explore it, I fired the shutter, by turning the side dial to S. I understand that because there was no lens on it, the body hasn't cocked, so the...

Hello! I’m searching everywhere to find an answer to something I’m noticing on my new EF 16–35mm f2.8L USM iii. My question is: Have you found the newer 16-35 iii is slightly darker and has a slightly narrower field of view than the older version ii? Or is it just my particular lens? I’m...

Hi, I've sold my nikon d610 and lenses 6 months ago and bought the fuji x-t20. I'm happy with my switch overall, although have found some unexpected issues. Sometimes when I focus, the EVF flickers. Recently I could not playback the photos I've just taken, solved this by formating the card but...

Hey, ich have the Canon T6i/750D with the Sigma 24mm 1.4 Art lens. I also bought the Sigma USB Dock and tried to calibrate it. I haven't had problems with the first three calibratable distances (0.25, 0.35, 0.6) but when I shoot at distances which are further away than those like 2, 5, 10, 20...

Ahoy hoy, I have a quick and rather strange question about the Recesky TLR kit camera that I hope someone here can solve. You see for some reason my shot counter does not work properly, it just goes about halfway and stops, which is good for using the camera for experimental photography and not...

Hey all, I just recently found a Minolta (St si Maxxum) film camera, and shot a roll with it. All of my shots turned out black with white streaks through them. I know this could be a problem with light coming in through the camera somewhere or something with the mirror, but either way as of...

Hi I have a big problem with vignetting on my sony nex 5r. It is really diaturbing on photos and even more on videos. It is normal or is something wrong with camera?

Hi all, I recently had two rolls of Kodak 400 color film developed at a store. I dropped the film off at the store and had them mailed to me. One of them had gone through X-rays multiple times before being developed but came out fine. However, the other came out blank/transparent with not...

I borrowed my friends camera and from the get go it was saying communications with the camera were faulty and I had to turn it on and off a couple times just to take some photos. I recently returned it back to her and she says it's not working and that she can't see through the manual hole or...

So I bought a new sigma 18 - 250 lens, and I noticed that when I am looking downwards to take a photo (at an angle of 45 degrees downward or more) the part of the lens that moves to zoom slides out from the spot that I had it at. However, this does not happen if I have the lens fully retracted...

Hi, I moved several weeks ago and had my stands and softbox taped up. The only problem I have now is with the softbox which isn't snapping open to it's full size. I'm not very mechanically minded which might be obvious ;-) Any ideas on how to fix the problem would be much appreciated. It's...

Hi, I bought used Sigma 24mm f/1.8 EX DG Macro for Nikon from eBay. I am worried because front element is little bit loose. So it moves sideways and makes a rattling sound when I shake it gently sideways. It works well with camera and takes ok photos in my books. There is little ding in lens...

Hello! So a month ago, I got a Bronica ETRS and loaded some film into it. When shooting with it, everything seems to be working fine except when its nearing the 10th to 13th frame. When I crank it to the next frame, sometimes, it doesn't cock and I rotate it twice or even three times before the...
