- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Ok.. know what SOME of it does.
I have a fmaily friend that used to be into photography. I've recently fallen in love with it as well and have started collecting/using different cameras. When he found out he sent me a package of lenses, filters, a flash gun and an A-1, which is awesome because the AE-1 I have is on loan...unless she forgets I have it
Anyway. I know what the Zoom lens and filters do but other than that I'm basically stuck. So if you know what anything of this stuff does PLEASE help me out
1. 370 BVC Braun Flash Gun
a. first off, the only free manual I could find was in German. and i read somewhere it's basically useless because it doesn't tell you what any of the settings actually mean. so if anyone has a manual they can copy over or can tell me what the settings mean that would be great
b. He sent it with the Canon A-1 and I can't figure out where/if the cord connects to the camera
c. I also have a Canon rebel and I was wondering if it is compatible with it as well
2. Vivitar lens.( i THINK it goes up to 20 feet)
a.I can't get it to go on the A-1 but I assume it can since he sent it to me
3. Canon Beroflex Auto Tele Converter
a.????? I thought maybe it had to do with the Vivitar lens but I can't figure it out. I too scared to try it because I don't want to break anything.
3. Exposure Meter
a. I'm not really sure what to do with it/how it works
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!
P.S. I'm also new to this forum. Hello!
