ty for this !!

Yeah, I know you said the Blad 500 is the best camera in the world ... but I'd go with the Trip 35. I wouldn't expect the Blad 500 to have survived what I've put my Trip through and it still works as well as day I bought it, secondhand for £12, in 1990. Get a lens cover to protect that selenium cell. Watch out for the wee red flag that tells you you've not wound it on or the light is too low for shooting, in which case the shutter release won't work. Its only got two automatic shutter speeds (medium and slow); perfect for catching Hippopotamuses in flight.

Probably would have been worth sacrificing 1 shot just to check film speed. I accidentally opened the back of my Trip the other day after 6 shots and incredibly only 1 shot was lost!

Hello! Just got my first camera & am wondering what kind of film it takes and where I can get it online?

The Pentax SLR models prior to the Spotmatic's introduction in 1964 were some of the best built and ergonomic cameras of their day. The Spotmatic continued those qualities. Pentax offered lenses as good as any of their time. However, in order to avoid orphaning compatibility with prior models, Pentax retained the M42 screw lens mount, even though use of such mount was even then being abandoned by all other camera brands, except for the cheapest makers. Use of the screw lens mount condemned Pentax to use stop-down aperture to make TTL metering measurement, which was also archaic by the time the Spotmatic was introduced. Pentax locked itself into a design mode for the Spotmatic TTL system until the very last models had an open-aperture metering system which in turn was abandoned shortly thereafter with a complete overhaul of the Pentax line of cameras. So, Pentax was not a leader of technology in camera design with the Spotmatic, and it continued to be at least one full generation behind nearly all other manufacturers until it dropped the Spotmatic and replaced it with the "M" series of small SLRs patterned after the Olympus OM-1. In terms of TTL metering systems, Topcon was the initial developer of fully in-cameras intigrated TTL metering, and Miranda was the earliest to offer TTL metering through interchangeable prism finders which could be used on all of their camera bodies. These were far ahead of TTL systems offered by Nikon, Canon, Pentax, and other better known makers. Conclusion: While offering many virtues, Pentax Spotmatics were very much not technical leaders of their day, just very well-made cameras of ordinary design with excellent lenses.

Great camera, has all you want! Only gripe I have is no shutter lock, so it's easy to accidentally fire a shot off. Very solidly built. Your one needs the wind lever return spring attended to.

do you know how to fix the flash button? it says “speedlight is in closed position”

I remember when I picked mine up in the thrift store for the first time, how heavy it is. Even remarked to my wife about it. Made her hold it. Pretty great camera though.

Stay safe please moss

Mr moss your dearly missed please come back

Hi mr moss PLEASE COME BACK TO JFK There is still time for you the deadline day is on the 5 We hope to see you soon JH

Hi great vid. Do most shops develop aps film?

Hey, love this channel. Glad to see it in my recs again. It might be worth reuploading this with some slight audio editing? Hearing a very sharp, very high frequency in the start. All love!

A lovely camera. You missed the depth of field preview - push the self timer lever towards the lens.

I've got the same 'give' in both my Spotty and SP 1000, which always feels concerning. I haven't noticed it making any difference but both suffer from a bit of 'shutter drag', for want of a better phrase, at the higher shutter speeds; which can create some dark edges along one side of the frame. I'm convinced its not a light leak it looks like a dark gradient progressively obliterating one edge at faster speeds, almost as if you're using a flash beyond the shutter sync speed. Sounds right, looks right with the back open ... flaming irritating mystery. I'm blaming an internal spring getting slack. Can't see a way around it. Hey ho, it is what it is !

I use mine with such pride. I was thinking of upgrading to a D7200 and changed my mind many times. I've used my friends D7100, and that took amazing photos, but didn't have the warmth of the D300S. I will always keep this camera until I decide to go with a Mirrorless one. What makes it so much better for me is that I have big hands, it's perfect.

What film roll should we use?

Trail cam have better long range nigthvision and motion detect but unlike chinese cam I guess. Do the app send you motion live alert on your phone ?

Very good apparantly also comparable with Pentax 1 SLR

Thanks

One of these can save you a fortune.

Such beautiful eyes, foxes are fascinating creatures

I have one since 2006 and cost £220 and is still a wonderful SLR camera

50€ where,,

Still got the Prinzlux 10x50's that I got for my 14th birthday. If you're travelling by car buy the heavier better binoculars, if you're on a three day hike ... walk closer 😁

I don't think you were fair to it, looking back with todays eyes, it may seem unsophisticated but back in 1968 it was pretty advanced. For comparison purposes the Rolleiflex SL35 was launched in 1970 which apart from the bayonet mount, has a very similar specification. The build quality is surprisingly similar. So is the lens quality if you compare the f1.8 Pentacon Lens and the Pancolar is a better lens than the Rollei Zeiss lens. According to Camera-wki Praktica launched the LLC in 1969 which had open aperture metering. If correct means Practica introduced the first ever open aperture metering camera. Olympus claim that crown with the FTL launched 1971 as does Pentax with the ES also launched in 1971. Notwithstanding the introduction of the Praktica L series including the LLC with open aperture metering, the Super TL continued to be made and sold because it was a very nice handling camera, it was super reliable and very durable. Screw mount lens changing is a bit slow which is why I eventually bought a Rolleiflex SL35ME and regretted it very much.

F90 and F90x held the fort for Nikon while the F5 was still in development. If only the F4 had the same AF performance.

I just found my mom's old 300S and this tutorial was very helpful, thank you!!

This is a great camera. I own a F-501, F-601 and F-801S and they all are fantastic. Best for me is the F-801S. Especially for people who normally shoot digitally and would like to try out an analogue camera, each of these cameras is a fantastic and very reasonably priced entry point.

Nice 📷

I do not have the 500mm f/8 Nikkor mirror lens but I do have a Nikkor 500mm f/4 IF-ED P and a Nikkor 1000mm f/11 mirror lens. Earlier this year, the 1000mm was very useful for capturing solar eclipse images.

It took Tony Blair, with a massive majority, three elections to ban fox hunting, how many of the 'Unspeakable in pursuit of the Uneatable' have been successfully prosecuted since - precisely none. If it was skin heads with Staffies on a lead hunting stray cats in Manchester they'd be dispersed sharpish, with arrests made. I saw an up-to-date video on a RUclips hiking channel last week of the red coated gentry, hounds and horses, just treating the countryside as if they own it - oh I forgot, they do own it. Its one of the main reasons why 'Right to Roam' is opposed by the powers that be in England. Because the general public (not townies) don't want foxes hunted, or raptors killed. Thank you for a sensible Government in Scotland for putting the wishes of the people first and the privileges of the wealthy way down the list. Lets see if after a term of Starmer's government if English feet are allowed to tread on English soil, without the Rights of the Rich prevailing. Okay, this ones a rant !

There is a reason big telescopes use mirrors instead of glass lenses - love the 500 f8 so much I got the 1000mm and 500mm f5 ...🦘

A 500 mirror (Centron) is my 'street photography' lens. I find if I'm using it on a bright day I can use it at 400th/sec at ISO 200, combine that with focus peaking and shooting in burst mode then I'm pretty sure I'll hit the mark within ten frames. I'm confident enough to take it to fast moving events, like jousting or skateboarding. What I particularly like about it is the massive drop off of light which produces highly contrasting colour saturated images. The only thing we are going to disagree on is compression ... it doesn't exist. Kodak started using the meaningless phrase when advertising longer zoom lenses in the early 70's, but even then they were careful to use it in sentences such as 'it seems like you are bringing the background closer', when of course you are just narrowing the angle of view and getting the shallower depth of field from 'long' lenses.

How do you disable the flash on the camera?

Good talk. I'm about to make my own video about this. I prefer film cameras, but I have been using this camera now and then for a few years and I find it OK. You're right: if you're artful with it, you can end up with some nice images (like yours at the end).

I like mine, I paid $50 for it with the 75-300 lens and took awesome photos of birds. I know nothing about cameras and have never owned a digital camera except on my phone. Thanks for the video.

The vídeo has now 3 years but I’m curious about what is the actual equivalent camera in digital that replace or can be considere the replacement of the Nikon 90

I love this camera too. Mine was a reasonably priced Ebay purchase.The corners of the top plate are worn right through the black paint and the copper plating to the white plastic base. It makes me think, "How many pictures has this camera taken?" and still it works on. I've never used it in manual mode as I use my MX alongside it. I fell in love with the M series and now have the full set including the MV, MV1, ME, MG and the ME-F with the autofocus lens (which works!).

The lack of a pressure plate and the thinness of the film base or the roll of rerapan 100s that I used to try mine out meant that the images came out rather warped but it DID work. !!!

I got the 105mm Macro 2.8 Z mount great lens and very light

Nice Ferocious Dog T shirt!

I know where this is.

Love the mouse!

Great lens. Great images.

I have the Nikon d800 and a Pentax Q7

Can i update it without any samsung assistants??

The superTL is lovely to use, the cloth shutter gives less of a clunk than the MTL and LTL series. The only downside to the two examples i have is that the light meter doesn’t work anymore, but I can get around it by using a TTartisan lightmeter.

What are the settings?

Quality images! Thanks for sharing. Something about that era of Nikon (and Canon) cameras I love. They are so well made and are just high quality tools that yield first rate results in the right hands (which yours are) You nailed it with, “All you need and nothing more.”
