Great video and lots of useful tips! I still have an issue with my Kiev 88 where the shutter winds and fires as it should (either without a back or with a back with no film loaded). But when I add film to the back and re-attach the proper way, the winding mechanism keeps winding (doesn’t lock) and self triggers the shutter. Very odd. Perhaps an alignment issue. Thoughts appreciated. Thanks for sharing your video!
Yes, for sure there is some deeper problem that a repair shop should look at. They are great cameras but its still a cheap copy of a hasselblad so repairs come more frequently :) im glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Good tips!!! I have used one since the 90s and every once in a while, I forget certain aspects ... probably shouldn't have gotten as old as I am!!!
Thank you 😃 forgetting things happens to everyone 😄
I upgraded to a Hasselblad 500CM about a year ago but I kinda miss the Kiev/Hasselblyat I had before :D
I wish i had bought a hasselblad years ago when they were cheap 🤣
