Advertisement Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 Hi Guest JMF, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
gbealnz Posted June 25, 2016 Share #17482 Posted June 25, 2016 Thanks JM, it's something I have always lusted after, having had a few 500C/M's over the years and loved them. The SWC though has always eluded me, until now. Now I have it though, well like I said, it's a weird fish. I've even considered trying a different optical finder, and guess that the SWC with an A-16 back would be "similar" to any old 35mm camera with the 21mm lens correct? If so, a simple 21mm finder with bright lines would suffice? Maybe. Time will tell. Gary 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMF Posted June 25, 2016 Share #17483 Posted June 25, 2016 Gary, I've only recently entered the "SWC world", Adam will tell you more ! There are some discussions on the web about various finders such as http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=133718 Have only used the original one and it suits me !

EoinC Posted June 25, 2016 Share #17484 Posted June 25, 2016 Yes, in a word, painful it is Eoin. If all I had was a few older trannies in anything larger than 35mm I'd not be bothering, but the SWC bug got me a week ago, found one, in need of a CLA, and this has been done. It's a weird beast, not sure if it is destined to stay with me, but I'll give it a go. The finder for example is non-glasses friendly, in fact without glasses it isn't even friendly. I'm not sure if I want to use it as a view camera, on a tripod with the ground-glass back, so we'll see how the first few rolls go. If it stays, then I am up the creek, and will source an Epson, an older one to start with, to get my feet wet so to speak. Gary I sincerely hope that you are well and truly up a small tributary to the Waikato, with a paddle nowhere to be seen, Gary. I've wanted a SWC since the 1970's, and am prepared to battle vicariously through your difficulties and bathe vicariously in your results. On, into battle, Gary... I'm right there behind you... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
