Analog film photography and cameras

Didn't we establish that they can be repaired if you speak Japanese?

Fuck! British schooling system lets me down again when it comes to languages

Any opinions on Olympus AF-1 Super? Especially regarding its durability and AF performance.

Can they?! I thought the parts where long gone or is there still a haul in Japan?

Was mistaken, problem has come back. Can't use at all.....think it was from a day I left it in the sun for too long in Greece last week, problem seemed to appear for about 30 mins but quickly went when I put it in the shade....Peak!

Does anyone know of someone that can fix these things in London?

Dont blame yourself, contax's just break now as they are old and unfixable in the uk.

Yeah, pretty sure. Tokyo Camera Style posted something in his IG story a few months ago. I think the only thing that can't be fixed are GRs.

In fact, the post was still in my browser's history.

Will just have to continue the keep old as paper weight and replace with another one.

Ah amazing, might take it to Seandean in London and see what they are saying.

Do you reckon if I take it to a Rapid Eye they will be able to remove the half shot film from it without exposing it, don't wanna risk opening it myself and not being able to get it in the spool?

Got a roll back today and realized I indeed almost exclusively shot vehicles lately.
Big fun with a Ricoh R1 a generous forum member gave me a while back, embracing the super wide option of the camera lately which means there's no need anymore to add vignetting in post, haha.
Also shot Kodak Gold 200 at 50 in fierce sunshine, which might have been pushing it a bit much (pun intended) but some turned out nicely like the camper above.

Look how ugly it is!!
Look at it!

That's sick! Fair play to him. I remember feeling like a badman fixing a Canon mirror squeak.

He seems to get a bit of stick sometimes but seems like hes super keen and interested in it.

Fair play to him and hope he makes money and continues to enjoy it.

dug my g1 out of the attic to sell but shot a roll to make sure it still worked, not sure if I want to sell it now..

Looks almost slightly fisheye...
Is this the 24mm pano mode? Did you permanently mod the camera?

yes and yes
