@@伊万诺夫维克多 find a manual to figure out what the problem is with the flash sync or send it to Arax in Ukraine for repairs

Not sure what you mean. Filter was changed out

Generally you can stop down the aperture to ensure you have everything in focus although you lose out on the depth of field. I can certainly print out the model for you if you would like, you would have to source the actual viewfinder for it though. Send me an email at alex.usovich@yandex.ru if interested.

Thank you! I absolutely love the viewfinder of the Leicaflex SL and it's still the best I've ever used. It's crazy to me that you can get a Leicaflex SL for almost the same price as a Pentax K1000 or Canon A-1; granted the price for the R cam lenses is pretty steep! There actually was a Leicaflex SL2 MOT that fell 8000 meters before crashing into the sand and was still operational, although it sustained some damage.

@@AleksUsovich That is an impressive record for the Leicaflex. In terms of cost, my understanding that initially Leicaflex cameras were rather expensive. About fifteen years or so ago, the demand just tanked and the prices went down by more than 80% virtually overnight.

English is not my native language, a mix of Russian / Belarussian is my native language. The 1D IV is a fantasitc camera and I often chose it over my 5D II when I had both years ago. I love carrying two cameras with different lenses and being prepared for anything with dual focal lengths.

@@davem.539 It's a usually drain and fill for ATF but there is also a filter. I'd do the filter every 50K-100K. Not every drain and fill if you do the recommended 15k drain and fill intervals

@@terry5373 They more than likely will. You'll probably have to drill them out and put in new bolts and nuts. Not too hard of a procedure

Glad it helped!

You are welcome!

Does the camera work like does the shutter fire at different shutter speeds?

This lens is certainty heavy especially paired with the 1DS II. Jack of all trades but master of none, especially not a master of being light weight.

Thank you very much for your kind words! Comparison to the work of others definitely seems to devalue my own work but you certainly make a great point in saying that it is poetic with it's flaws and not being perfect. I had not even considered that possibility before!

Thank you! The inside of the can only has a simple baffle at the bottom to separate the vapor and oil / contaminates below but still allowing air to pass via a small mesh screen up top. As for emissions testing I would assume that an oil catch can would be even more beneficial since some auto manufactures (like VW) in the past had the PCV valve go directly into the exhaust pipe (without combustion / recirculation) which greatly increased both pollution and much dirtier emissions. Newer vehicles as best as I know don't do this practice but there should be no issues leaving the catch can on the vehicle in areas where emissions testing is required.

Thank you! The folding camera used to be called "pocket cameras" as they were easily able to carried in the pockets of trench / sports coats as were popular in the 40s/ 50s/ and 60s. The quality of the lenses is far superior to that of a Holga. I've darkroom printed 8x10s taken with this camera and the prints are plenty sharp! There are plenty of these Zeiss Nettar 6x6s on eBay for under $50 that perform beautifully as they're built tank tough. Unfortunately most non folding medium format cameras are crazy expensive even the Lubitel 166s that used to be around $50 used a few years back are over $150 for a cheap plastic camera (I loved using it though even though both of mine had the shutter fail unfortunately). There are Soviet folding cameras as well like the Moskva 1-5 and the Iskra but those have unfortunately been plagued with issues like light leaks, shutter problems, and extremely high prices due to the rarity of them. I've always been curious about trying them but the Zeiss Nettars have always treated me well and are plentiful so I've stuck with them. Best of all, you can find the Zeiss Nettars in 6x4.5, 6x6, and 6x9 formats. As you can probably tell, these are one of my favorites types of medium format cameras since it takes up little space and you can always take it anywhere or throw it in a camera bag just in case like the quote that says "the best camera is the one that you have with you!"

​@@AleksUsovichinterestingly, I am at a camera show in Chicago. Dealer has moskva 2 thru 4 cameras with two Kiev rangefinders. I don't dare ask price.

@@Speedtv21 Yes you can use the 2011 screens.

If the car is brand new. If it's over 5 years old, there's much better options out there like Valvoline Maxlife synthetic fluid.

Welcome!

The Mini D2S will fit. There's plenty of room inside the headlight for practically any projector. You will lose some headlight distance with the D2S but will have more width. I have since swapped out the acme for the Mini H1 V8 and love the upgrade

@@AleksUsovich Awesome man really appreciate the help!

@@CALISUPERSPORT Glad to help

@@daviddanh1772 theoretically that should work since inner tube patch is a rubber cement. Rubber cements will need to have both sides covered and held together until they bond. It might work but might not

@@ryanmccaig2893 any kind will work but a high temp wheel bearing grease or a synthetic grease would be best.

@@robertcuny934 I love using my Kiev 6C / 60 as much as my Kiev 88. Thankfully they're easier to CLA or work on if need be. I had mine refurbished by Arax a few years ago for ~$500 but I've shot well over 60+ rolls of film and the camera still works perfectly and I don't doubt it'll last about 20+ years with careful use. I personally would stay away from the German Zeiss lenses for the Kiev 60 as I've owned many of them and had nothing but problems with them from the focusing to aperture problems. The Soviet lenses are the way to go with this camera. I appreciate your comments and hope you stay tuned for more camera and automotive videos to come in the near future!

​​@@AleksUsovichI doubt if I will acquire additional lenses. The German lenses are too popular and Kiev lenses too hard to find other than Ukraine sellers on eBay. Thankfully. I bought a fisheye (not multicoated) in the 1990s. You have a lot of interesting videos posted that I intend to watch- even though I do not own a Honda.😁 Thanks again!

@@AleksUsovich I found a Russian language video by Anthony P showing the internal mechanism used by the Kiev and Soyuz. I will need to try auto-translate when time permits to thoroughly view the video Very clear video. If I ever find a Kiev body for cheap enough, I may try disassembly per that video. Don't know if posting a hyperlink is ok but you should be able to do a search- provided you aren't already aware of the video

@@robertcuny934 I was super careful to make sure that this Leica didn't go swimming with the fishes. I love my Soviet gear and also enjoy the cheaper less universally loved Leica cameras like the Leciaflex and Leica R mounts. I could never ever own a Lecia rangefinder!

​​@@AleksUsovich I never bought Leica due to lens prices. I have a Salvation Army $6.00 Minolta 3000i maxxum with 35mm to 80mm zoom for hazardous duty.

@@robertcuny934 No one services any Kiev camera in the US.

@@AleksUsovich I suspected that was the case. Thank you.

@@LilDyno731 Glad to help!

@@robertcuny934 I have used both. I have had a flash on the Kiev 6C viewfinder + 3d printed adapter while on my Lubitel 166b and also had a flash on the cold shoe. Either option works depending on what you're going for. I made a 90 degree coldshoe model that allowed me to mount my flash and have it right side up on my Lubitel since I was getting weird shadows mounting my flash on the original coldshoe

@@Ruben-kc8hy Thank you!

Glad to help!

@@gyvertoring6617 you can find the part at Rockauto or the Honda dealership

@@losborias use something to dislodge the ball bearing so it can move freely and make sure to clean the the reel well with hot soapy water.

@@AleksUsovich thanks, will do. I have also read about using some vinegar.

Many thanks!

Hello! The parts numbers that you need are: 50230-S3V-A01 : Bushings (need 4) 50231-S3V-A01: Insulators that go on top (need 4) 90161-S0X-A00 : Subframe bolts (not necessary to replace but I did since mine were rusted) Cheapest place to buy parts is from Hondapartsnow.com (NOT SPONSORED by them)

@@HeatherFerguson-z5k if there has been a tear in the boot for a while and sand or water get in, it'll score the bearings with disassembly and repacking doing nothing since the bearings are messed up. This is just a temp fix to get by temporarily.

@@kylemurr5251 this is a easily fixable issue. Honda has a tsb for it which would fix it but you would have to cover the costs. The vehicle is over 20 years old since the first pilot hence why there is no recall.

Similar viewfinders. The 1DX has boxes for focusing rather than red focus dots on the 1D IV. The whole viewfinder lights up red for illuminating the boxes but is much worse than the 1D IV imo. The viewfinder in the 1DX can show the camera tilt / level. I much preferred the 1D IV viewfinder especially when photographing when dark. The lever is pretty useful in the 1DX. I now shoot with the 1DX II and have both the red dots and the level in the viewfinder.

@@AleksUsovich thanks for response. but i was wondering about viewfinder size difference. i was worried the 1d 4 finder is much smaller than even the apsc cameras finders

@@majdshami Size is nearly identical between the two bodies. 1DX has like 1% more coverage. 1D IV 98% vs 99% 1DX.

@@AleksUsovich sure. but i guess 1d4 has less magnification and smaller apparent viewfinder. i havent seen both bcz i thought of getting 1d4 to save money

@@majdshami The 1D IV is still a great choice performance wise and was one of my favorite cameras. I can almost guarantee that you wouldn't even notice a difference between the two viewfinders if you had both of the cameras in your hands

@@fixingproblems3183 I used leather filler to fill in the holes, sanded it flat, and applied leather paint to it. The repair is pretty obvious but won't be ripping more or getting worse
