Interesting. The version of the manual I downloaded doesn't have the F button. Must be two versions of the camera, one without the F button and hence two versions of the manual.From the manual I've just looked at:
p4 describes it as the shutter lock free button
p14 refers to it in the important photo (the manual description)
I hope this helps.

Yes, but in all the videos I have seen they remove the branding ring before taking the front element out. I didn't want to try removing the front element without doing the brand plate first in-case it would mess something up.Does the front element have the 2 slots 180 degrees apart ?
In the photo I can see a lttle slot on the stepped ring just above the serial number. I wonder if that is used to remove the branding ring.Yes, but in all the videos I have seen they remove the branding ring before taking the front element out.

Yes, those slots are for loosening the ring directly behind the branding ring and while visible cant be gotten to without removing the branding one. Pretty sure there is a grub screw securing the ring you are seeing behind the branding ring as well which can only be gotten to by removing the branding ring.In the photo I can see a lttle slot on the stepped ring just above the serial number.

If you don't use it I can use it for youMy new toy
Hasselblad 350mm CF.
Could not believe I found one in "as new" condition with leather case.
Whether I use it or not remains to be seen, but it is pretty.

Finally bought a Olympus xa3 for a reasonable price yay!!
Anyone has a picture of where the light seals are located?
Seller described the camera as “seems to be working” and by looking at the pictures I can’t tell if there’s light seals missing
This post has just been brought to my attention. Rodinal is correct - the camera did develop a fault after we had tested it and sent it to him. However, if a faulty item is returned for a refund, we always refund the original postage paid and the return postage. In this case the camera was £149.00 + £11.00 postage. We refunded £171.00 (on May 2nd 2023).I have a different experience to yourself. A few months ago I bought what sounded like a nice Zeiss Super Ikonta from him and cosmetically it was nice, but the shutter jammed after 4 exposures so it was sent back. He may look at them, but there is something not quite right and may need to have them checked checked over by a repairer, especially the older ones before putting them up for sale. I didn't even get the offer of my postage being refunded.
I recently found a SMC Pentax M 28/2 leans for a very reasonable US$ 228 including postage, from Japan. It arrived within a few days, no VAT or Duty charged, and looks in very good condition. I took it to the Castleton film meet, where it was on the MX for around half the time (I thought I shouldn't rely on it exclusively until I've seen the results!). Negatives processed by The Darkroom UK will be waiting for me when I get home!I am looking for a Pentax SMC M 28/2 if anyone on here has one they are not using. UK fleabay prices are absurd, so I'm eyeing up the Japanese options. Duty & VAT do make them more expensive, but the way I look at it, it's a public service to increase the UK population of nice lenses!
