5 people so far “just hate it” :eek: I’ll add one more vote to make us 6:p It’s not that I find dslrs/mirrorless complicated. Maybe aesthetically a bit underwhelming. A professional wouldn’t care because it’s a tool at the end of a day, but I’m an amateur and prefer something more minimal. I...

I’m curious to see how fast the af will be in a real word senario. Batteries is also a bummer for me. It’s priced around 800 dollars i think?

You got the most votes :p for julys theme “people”. I’m pretty sure the voting is closed by now haha

Well done @Kell for last month’s theme! What about emerge? Am I the only one struggling about interpreting the word emerge?

I’ll try that, i was actually doing it by pushing the film kind of inside and down as you described. And of course the film would not hook in, it takes a few times. Thanks for the tip

Yes, I’ll use that film and sellotape it on one of my used film canisters. Thx. Yes the mx is a great little camera. The best/biggest viewfinder I’ve ever used on an SLR. It’s a real joy composing with the camera.

@The Oldun Having recently lost a film and a half worth of pictures I can sympathise with you… The joys of film.

Thx again guys. I’ll put some film in with the back open and see if it winds ok. Frustrating more so because of the time I’ve waisted but hey it’s done now…

If it wasn’t threaded properly though i wouldn’t have the first couple of frames exposed, instead In theory if that happened i should have had none exposed , or at least the last frames. Its definitely the first frames because i finished the roll In a few hours, I remember the order the pictures...

Ahh, good to know. That’s what i thought. But as you said worst case scenario it’s a double exposure. I’ll run a film in and try push the button and see what happens after winding the film advance lever.

I think this is a dead end for trying to figure out what happened. The question now is , do i use the camera again or test it somehow? Thx very much everyone the help is much appreciated

I thought it snapped because there was also no resistance from the rewind lever. I was so certain it snapped that i took the camera in the changing bag in case it did. But that wasn’t the case..

Yes I forgot the check the obvious and the shutter /aperture is working ok on all speeds. About the last frame. It looks like it’s only 2 frames overlapping each other. That’s Strange? So that means the film was not advancing and not taking pictures….. It’s an slr so it’s not a case of having...
