Hi All,

From experience I believe the opening for the ground glass for the 45D is about 2.5 millimeters shorter than others. I purchased a Yanke ground glass/fresnel/grid set from China on the auction site...
Just take your time and do all the lugs including the side ones. Once that is done, you'll love the SP-445.

Had same problem. You need to sand down the flash in the groove with 600 grit paper. It’s in the instructions.
Hi All,
I decided to just try out my lenses and see what is sharp and what isn't. I first decided to do something in my studio. I had some Spanish Moss and ferns from fallen branches from Harvey...

Thanks everyone for the advice. Yes, I've been to the Ace Hardware store and Home Depot, but I really didn't know what to look for. I will go back to Ace and look at their 4-40 screws. I have the...
Hi All,
Thanks for the advice. I will take out one of the screws this weekend and take a macro photo of it, and also take some measurements with a micrometer. For those of you that don't know, and...
Hi All,
I am looking for a source for the thick headed machine screw that acts as a pivot for the slider levers for the standards. Not sure if I described it correctly, but included is a photo. I...
