Sometimes we all become too interested in the camera body because that is where most of the gadgets are. But it is the lens that makes the picture and most often the lens has a more direct influence on the eventual image quality 'output'. If economy is a consideration, you should consider buy a less expensive camera body rather than less expensive lenses. If you buy a SLR camera with only one lens is also not logical because you might as well buy a cheaper camera with a fixed, non-interchangeable lens like a P&S. But modern lenses has such fantastic features such as high power zoom with previously unimaginable zoom range which actually makes a single-lens-do-all photographic system viable. All those messages posted on the variuos Message Boards for SLR Models are not short of interesting comment and remarks on lenses. Well, not to confuse others who are just interested in cameras, I thought there is a neccessity for a separate Message Board for those who are interested in discussion on various issues on lenses as well..

Unlike the Message designed for camera of various makes, this MB is one-for-all type and thus I hope this section can be maintained as a peaceful zone.

Hi-I am looking into the feasibility of utilizing some older macro lenses with EOS bodies. I have found several 50mm and 100 mm FD lenses, and FD lens to EOS body adapters (without optics,) and am clear that I will be limited to manual focus and manually stopping down the lens. My question is about throwing a FL bellows and slide duplicator attachment into the mix. I have read that the FD lens is backward compatible to the FL bellows, but my question whether the FL bellows will work with the FD lens to EOS body adapter? TIA, Charles

Please contact me and I will gladly share photos of this and my Small Nasa Camera Details if you would like as well.

Hi Nicole:

Two possibilities come to mind: either the shutter is not opening, or the film is not transporting through the camera. You should be able to check the shutter by opening the back of the camera and looking through the shutter as you fire it, you should see a blink of light through the lens.

To check for the film transport, you may be able to remove the lens, load a cheap roll of film, set the shutter on "B" and operate the camera a number of times - while the shutter is open each time, make a mark on the front of the film with a Sharpie pen. When you finish, remove the film and pull it out of the cartridge, there should be a series of marks down the length of the film, each about 1 1/2 inches apart.

I have the Minolta maxxum 7000. I went out the other day and took 2 black and white rolls of film. When i took them to get developed they called me 20 minutes later and said both rolls were blank. Any ideas as to why?

Thank you in advance.

Attempting to modify a Contax Mirotar 500mm F8. Need suggestions on how to remove the rear lens mount. Not the bayonet, the rigid mount the bayonet is attached to. Any help is appreciated. Pictures, or exploded view of a Mirotar 500 are especially valuable.
