Thanks, Orio and Dave,
I have a roll of Kodak 100 loaded in the Exakta 500 I hope to shoot tomorrow, since it's supposed to be sunny and clear. I'll be testing the
newly acquired Sonnar 4/135. |

|
|
I recently inherited an Exakta Varex IIa (engraved) together with a CZJ 2.8/50 semi-automatic.
I took it for a walk, and it seems to work perfectly
THIS IS MY FIRST POST IN THIS FORUM AND IT SEEMS THAT THE PICTURE DOESN'T SHOW. CAN SOMEONE HELP?

I have too, but not IIa unfortunately.
I recently bought EXAKTA->EOS adapter, but its description says
you cannot use the exakta mount lens with aperture button sticking out!
Anyway, the colour of those photos are gorgeous, Bill.

Nikea and Koji, beautiful cameras!
Koji, thanks for your comments, I could want focus a little better in these
and is that a soft release button on the right hand camera in the pic?

That is a soft focus button came with the set when I got it at ePay! |
That's really cool, will see if I can find one of those.
