Simonwide: Thanks
for your offer to assist me. I have a few questions to start of with, all of
which will demonstrate my inexperience with medium
format. 1. how do I open
the 624 to put film in?at each end of body silver list sprinGs, crude but useful. pry
upward over pin. best if done together, gentle lift. surprise! return to
position dang near sel,f latching. 2. Is the focusing knob set in feet or
meters? i can't see your
camera. put on tripod and focus on something ten feet away, measured. ok, if
scale comes up 3, it's meters AND/IF focal legth was purchased with camera,
it's still MAYBE. THREE MAIN DISTANCES YOU NEED ARE
HYPERFOCALM DISTANCE AND TEN FEET. YOU MARK EM.that's two but infinity is
sometimes useful..... 3.On
top of the 624 is a bracket intended for some piece of equipment to
slide-in. It is not for the viewfinder as the camera already has one so what
could this bracket be intended for? DON'T
LAUGH. FLASH WHICH MEANS STROBE.
4. On the front of the camera (on one side) is a
bracket with a hole and a screw. What is that for?PUT THAT AREA ON SCANNER. I'LL LOOK.5. On the back of the camera there is a sliding
plate. I assume that this plate is used to cover the round window (that
shows the picture number on the film?) while shooting?SLIDING PLATE IS GROUND GLASS. PULL OUT AND HAVE A
LOOK. 6. My 624 does not
have a ground glass (for composition & focusing). Do you know where I
could get one?BETCHA IT DOES OR HAVE YOU USED CAMERA. CUT ON
FOR YOURSELF OR PLASTIC TO FIT SPACE.Thanks
for taking the time to help me. STEVE- WHERE BE YA?
I'M IN NJ USA. GOOD CAMERA AND CRUDE PLANNING.ah,
215...philly Best Regards
