      Thank you, I think you can tell I love these old mechanical film cameras. Of course I also love the latest mirrorless as well.

    I pushed film and used Illford and Agfa stuff...and I went up to 6400 a lot as I remember. Agfa always worked the best. Those concerts were dark...very dark. I loved doing all that stuff. I shot a lot of concerts. I was a Dead Head and have some pretty cool pics. I also had a Minolta totally manual camera. NO light meter or anything. I loved it and got tons of great photos. I LOVED it! Then I got a Pentax and used that for a while. Now I have all Nikon cameras and lens. Thanks for sharing...Peace

    Hi! Great video- thanks! My SRT101 has a kind of grainy viewfinder- definitely not dirty- looks more like a film across it.. is this removable do you think? Makes it hard to focus! Thanks!

      It’s probably the focusing screen or possibly the viewfinder. Try cleaning the viewfinder with a q-tip moistened with lens cleaner. There really is no way to clean the focusing screen without taking the camera apart. You can access the bottom of the screen by removing the lens but it’s plastic and you really can’t clean it. You can try a blower brush if it’s dusty. Son look at the mirror when you have the lens off. Give it a few blasts of air with the blower brush. If it’s dirty you can very carefully use a microfiber cloth moistened with a few drops of lens cleaner. Use very light pressure. Hopefully this works. Let me know how you make out. Thanks for watching.

    Do the shutter speeds on these tend to remain accurate? It's easy enough to use an external light meter if need be, but are the shutters usually ok?

    • @julesvuottosphotofocus4696

      Very good question. In my experience in some cases the slow speeds are off. Thanks for watching my video.
