Mamiya c330 screen

[Meysha]

Hi all!

Guess what?!?!?! I finally bought a mamiya c330. yay! off ebay!

It took me about an hour to figure out how to open the back off it though. bloody hell.... and then another half an hour how to take a picture. hehehe.

But we got there in the end.

Now my mamiya came with a viewfinder thing - not just the screen you look down on to. But what I'd like to do is take that big viewfinder thing off sometimes and just use the screen. But I don't have a cover for the screen and I don't want it to get damaged of course so I'd like to buy one.

But I don't know what that cover is called to search for it. Is it even possible to buy one?

Oh and what does the L button on the right hand side do?
And... it seems my multi/single function doesn't work properly... i can only take photos when it's set to multi.

.... And... what's the blue knob for on the left hand side with Lock and Unlock and all different numbers - that look like lens sizes.


hmm... well that should keep you all busy for a while. hehe... Thanks everyone!

You are looking for a "waist level finder". Should be easy to find, and fairly cheap. The one you have is called a "prism finder".

Thank you so much matt!

There's so much crap on the net these days it's hard to find something unless you know exactly what it is.
