I took some shots with film as I often do at a horse show a couple of weeks ago. This was my worst time ever trying to get focus. At least 60-65% out of focus.
I have a focus confirm adapter for the yashica's that seems to work great but locks the mirror up on the EOS 3. I just got a focus confirm adapter, that works great on the 40D, for the flek this week but haven't tried it yet on the EOS 3.
A fat little miniature horse. He has a fly mask on to keep bugs from his eyes. He can see through it.

The mint is so cute and plump! You should find yourself a cheap C/Y body. It will work with m42 lenses also ( like your killer flek). _________________ Moderator |

Thanks Andy.
I really like the EOS 3, I think I was having a bad day. I usually don't have too many problems but sure did this day. _________________ Ron |

I will look into the EC-L focus screen. Is that a split image or what?
The only adapter I have problems with is focus confirm. I think its the contacts causing problems. I need to try the new one I just got for the flek on the EOS 3 to be sure. I got the confirm adapter because the plain one goes beyond infinity and really causes me problems with these eyes. _________________ Ron |

Did you know that you are almost as bad as Bill. No, forgive me for saying that. Did you notice that the D and the S are quite close together? _________________ Ron |
