Thanks for the video. I just completed my first camera surgery. Now to try the camera to make sure I haven't stuffed it up.

FYI this guy just rants about random shit until 3:43 where he finally starts talking about the camera. After 3 minutes I'm already bored of this guy and I'll just go watch a different video. I hope this saves you time too. lmao

OM 1 was more innovative. MX was made to overshadow OM 1 but layout was more traditional 😊!

Thank You so much. You're the only one who detailed how to line the speed ASA dial. It helped tremendously.

I bought Yashica Electro at Hong Kong airport in the 1970s. It was a beautiful camera and I used with good results.until I fell under the spell of Nikon. Regretfully, I don't know what become of the Yashica.

I find your knowledge very good towards your camera reviews. I was airing your video on the Olympus wide s and was very disappointed when you discussed how rich people acquire cameras and other people purchase them, referring to yourself in the first class! In my opinion, I found this very snooty. It bothered me because I always watched your videos. Please accept this as a criticism and not a bad remsrk Thank you, a viewer.

Hello, thanks for a great video. We have failed on a Konica auto S3 by using the wrong solvent but will try again with something stronger tomorrow. We have noticed that the camera can be continuously winded without pressing the shutter release button. Does anyone know if this is a consequence of the sticky shutter blades ?

Hey! I recently bought a Pen S f/3.5 but it trips the shutter every time you wind it. The frame counter also spins a full rotation every time you wind it. Have you ever stumbled across this?

@johnprinos 8 күн бұрын

Many thanks! I just acquired an Auto S which had no focusing image. With this video I was able to disassemble the camera to determine that a mirror detached. I now have a focusing image but I’m afraid that the focusing distance is off. Oh well, an issue for another day.

I guess with legacy to Sony. Minolta had good focusing system. Sony has the best now.

Thank you so much for making this video. It’s pleasing to watch, how this camera is still related today’s world. By the way I just start experimenting mine with Fuji GFX, so far going good. Is anyone done any work so far ? Last year tried some 120 films on it and work great with film back. Only issue I’m having with the lens, it seems need to be service.

I still have a Nikon F2 and a Nikkomat (lenses are all interchangeable on a bayonet fitting) with standard lenses, a big heavy telephoto lense and and fish eye lense. I also have an ancient Practicka, with a large selection of lenses, that I take on the beach etc. where I won't take my Nikons.

Why do fixed lens rangefinders always have the shutter on the lens? Besides being cumbersome, it is extremely prone to breaking. I have owned several rangefinders like this from different brands and they have all broken. An SLR is much more reliable in my experience.

Hello, I have one of these cameras and watching your video I opened mine and had access to the film winding system, however, in my case the small horizontal bar does not remain in the "unlocked" position. When I use the screwdriver and move it, it moves smoothly, but if I release it, it returns to the "locked" position. Do you know of any other procedure to keep the small bar horizontal so that it does not block the film winder?

@marksphotoperry356 12 күн бұрын

No,not a good camera ! Totally overrated !! Did use it professionally for a short time. Trash it ,the sooner the better ! Get an old Nikon instead and use all great Zeiss lenses on it.

I bought my OM 1 in 1979. It still works, but the battry for the lightmeter is no longer made. I did attempt a conversion using a diode, but made a complete hash of it. So I just use a hand meter.

On mine everything works 100% as long as you let the advance lever go so it can spring back to it's original position. If you do it gently the camera will jam! I will give it a clean and oil under the bottom plate, should help things return a bit smoother. Thankyou for the video!

Thanks for sharing your story. It’s my dream to move there but not having a degree sounds like it’ll be a roadblock

@japanvintagecamera8869 17 күн бұрын

It is possible to get in without a degree if you can verify you have 3 years of experience in a trade or skill. There are many foreigners in Japan working in resorts or restaurants, these jobs don't require degrees. You can also enroll at a Japanese language school, which will allow you to get a student visa. With this visa you can get a work permit which will allow you to work part time. In time you can find a better job with an employer who will sponsor, not all of them require degrees so long as you have some kind of skill they can use.

I recently bought a vintage OM40 as I want to get into film photography. Really an amateur here. I cannot see anything through the viewfinder. What can be the reason? Does anything need to be adjusted?

@japanvintagecamera8869 17 күн бұрын

The OM40 must have a batteries installed, otherwise the shutter and mirror will stay closed. Make sure the batteries are installed correctly.

@PiMagia 19 күн бұрын

My timer stuck, what should i do? It wont go foward on the film, and wont shutter

@japanvintagecamera8869 17 күн бұрын

The self timer can stick for two reasons. It can stick if the shutter blades are stuck. If you remove the front or rear lens and add a drop or two of solvent to the shutter blades, that may cause the shutter to cycle, and unstick the self timer. If the self timer itself is stuck, you can add a few drops of solvent to the lever and let it run down into the mechanism. This sometimes doesn't work, if that is the case, try pushing the lever. This will often unlock the timer and shutter, the timer may break, but at least you can then use the shutter.

Nice video! My iA (like yours) was my favourite but I just got a 1934 model F and I think for usability this might now be my favourite! Love these cameras!
