Hi, Guys -
Would like to ask once more, if any of You have experience with cameras like those old dinos, I'm buying now and then on Ebay:
This time Canon EOS 650: I've got two of those - about 15-16 years old (just few weeks with me), and normally no trouble, if I don't ask them to focus on a motive at sea, -water in big portions seem to confuse the AF. Two weeks ago, one of the cameras started having trouble with exposure and mirror, -the mirror stays up some times, at on the latest two rolls, about half the pictures vere unexposed and some few wrong exposed. -Several rolls of film in advance perfect, and the other half of the shots on the troubled films likevise. Battery less than a month old. Yesterday, EOS 650 #2 started exactly the same way - until now only twice - mirror does not come down after release before i presse the release button again... LCD display shows "bc" - code for battery check. -But check shows battery ok - so does the photo dealers meter.
Anyone tried this ? What happens ? What to do ????
I normally work with Canon T-70 (3 of the kind, one from new in 1987) - no trouble at all with any of them, but as the 650's go for less than fifty bucks these days on ebay, I just had to try my first autofocus. Also lately got a T-90 on ebay, but i guess, that one needs some manual reading to get use of all the features it offers.
Today MADAGASCAR gets its danish premiere. -It just might be the first money-maker for months. Hope so !
all the best
