• Eye control still feels like witchcraft. Have you calibrated it? I find it very reliable once it's set up and you position your eye perfectly.

  • Thanks that's good to hear.

    I don't have a battery in it yet so I've not had a chance to calibrate.
    I found an excellent user guide and whilst eye control seems like pure sorcery there are plenty 0f people that'll vouch for it.

    It was mostly for fun/curiosity that I got it, a cheap (£10) ebay job lot with a minolta x-9 and zoom lens, I plan to give my daughter the X-9 but it looks like the shutter capacitor needs replacing, hopefully the eos will be fine, seems like a good sturdy camera!
