Yeah, that is by far the cleanest Brand I have ever seen. They can get fairly corroded, but it never seems to hurt them any. So you still cannot get the plunger to pull out? Let some lube soak in for...

I have one that has that same arrangement (sorry, just now saw the thread). I had to take all the knobs off of the camera and put a small dab of machine oil on all of the threads. I think the...
HI, I will post some places I am heading when the weather gets a bit cooler. It is too warm for much in the way of hiking around right now. I do a lot of desert trips in the cooler season. Chris
When it gets nicer to meet someplace that works for both our areas, I will post something on here. I love Highway 66 through the desert, and I want to visit some of the native palm groves this next...
Hi Ray; I am still around at least. It's a bit hot lately, but during the cooler season I like to travel in the Mojave desert quite a bit. Let me know what areas you like to visit and what kind of...
Well probably.....

They were not directed at me, someone else.

But, there are no good answers for that, so I will just avoid the feedback section from now on.

And I guess a better question would be why are comments like those still in place when a simple question about bellows extension or coverage on a for sale item are deemed unfit?

Thanks Bob, but communications like "Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out," and "Maybe this forum isn't for you" are not hard to understand.

Well, they don't seem to have deleted me, so I guess I will stay around unless they do. Thanks for the nice comments. What irked me so much the other night were not comments in the main threads, it...
After seeing the way you folks respond to people who ask questions about policy and such, I must say, just go ahead and delete my account....I won't be using it anymore. What a bunch of rude people....
I like the Minolta because it fits in my TLR bag where the analog Pentax does not. I couldn't believe all that dreadful electronic calculator stuff when I got it, so quickly figured out how to make...
I got a Spotmeter M to use as a smaller field meter in addition to my Pentax. They read exactly the same. I hate all that calculator stuff on the Minolta, though. I printed the numbers from the...
Thanks Dave.

Thanks, I knew someone must be familiar with them. Chris

Apparently, it is so scarce knowledge even over 500 viewers on here don't know either. I guess the gold and fake wood grain Wistas are relegated to the era of the orange and fake wood Ford Pinto...
I was wondering if people could help me decipher the variations in some of the Wista metal cameras. I know about the later versions like the SP and the VX, but I have trouble finding info on the...
If anyone is considering this, let me know, even if you would just come up for the day. There are all kinds of neat stuff to photograph up there, like railroad places, historic highway buildings,...
I had a big mid-summer commercial project once that involved using several five gallon buckets and some bags of ice to make really cold water, which I then used to mix with tap water to make my...
I was using the Photo Flo bottle cap to measure it out, and then found out the paper gasket seal in the cap was falling apart and getting lots of pieces in the liquid. I changed bottles and now it is...
Years ago I got bought a $12 relay from Granger and set it up so my digital timer trips the relay, which in turn is just a wall power switch to the cold light. Very easy and cheap compared to what...
I will be camping in the Donner Pass area for several days and thought I would create a casual meet up for Saturday and Sunday, September 17 and 18. I will be there before and after that as well, if...
I will be at Donner Pass in September, after Labor Day, with a 4x5. If any of you want to meet up there just let me know. I could post it as a regular meeting on here if there is any interest. It...
I am planning a large format and analogue meet up and social event for Sunday, January 24, in Mission Valley. It will be at 5:00pm at O's American Kitchen, the former Pat & Oscar's. I hope some of...
When the weather let's up a bit I will post for doing a desert trip and we can see how it does. Chris
Hi;
I am going to start keeping an interest list of folks who would like to do some informal meet ups and outings in the San Diego region, especially the mountain and desert areas. This would also...
There are often brand new ones listed on there, I just saw some the other day. The new ones are usually anodized black in color.
