I put a few rolls through the camera and have figured out what that extra roller does - apparently it helps with loading the film. So far I have experienced one roll would not load at all - it would start to get engaged with the sprockets on the take up spool but would pop loose. Tried

Re: Need info on K10D AF vs. MZ-S

I should add, that recently I've been playing a bit. Although trivial, but it appears that if I force only center sensor to be used in AF'ing then of course it seems that AF becomes faster. As far as I remember MZ-S has less AF sensors than K10D. So perhaps it plays a certain role in the equation

FS Friday: The MZ-S is on the block (with BG-10)

After reading all the responses to my earlier message I've decided to put the MZ-S up for sale. I just learned that the new program at the arts school where I had hoped for a teaching job has been postponed by at least 6 months, so I'm going to be getting by on fairly minimal funds unless

Re: Question: Should I sell my MZ-S?

I did a model shoot last Saturday with my MZ-S and that camera is a real pleasure to use. It focussed perfectly in the dim studio, my D200-using buddy was impressed with the results, and the model was pleased with the 60 prints that I gave her (my cost $0.00, since the second set was free

the extent to which selling it was a struggle. *sigh* Man, I love that camera. The MZ-S is awesome. But it had been used only ONCE since going digital, and that was admittedly 100% out of sympathy. Truth be told, I can't even tell you where the roll of film is that I ran thru it (probably in the trash

Question: Should I sell my MZ-S?

It's a question I've been pondering for some time so I thought I'd open it up to discussion and debate. Let's stir the pot, rock the boat, muddy the waters, etc. Much as I love my MZ-S, I've noticed that I just don't use it any more. I shoot digital for the most part. When I shoot film, it's

Re: Question: Should I sell my MZ-S?

one. Pretty stupid really. I held onto the MZ-S because I wanted a good AF camera to go with my limited lenses, but I still didn't use the camera - which meant I didn't use the lenses either! I haven't used the 43mm in years (three at least). It's even longer since I ever used the 360 FGZ flash

Re: Question: Should I sell my MZ-S?

Mark, I'll be watching your posts with even greater interest since, as I've mentioned before, I'm emotionally involved with the MZ-S, w/BG10 battery grip and 360 flash. I'm optimistic about the AF-360FGZ working on the K10D..if needed.(?) I've sold equipment totaling $3,700, so am positioned well
