Thank you for updating and stopping the speculation in this thread!

Very carefully clean with a bulb air blower and a very soft brush. Then only if necessary clean the underside and replace exactly as it came out. If and only if necessary then clean with a lens cleaner as necessary using only minimal amount of lens cleaner.

I have a 11"x14" print washer that lives in my bath tub [which is next to a large shower]. I have used it for many years.

It sounds like you have a winner there. If you do buy it, enjoy it!

She is definitely a keeper!

Looks like you got a good one! Enjoy!

Unlikely, more like an Operator Assisted Failure.

Sometimes when thing are looking bad, the Earth and Moon move to help you. (y)

Thank you. I have noticed recently that Phillips screws slip much more often then flathead or other screw heads and wondered why.

A two slot wrench . . .

Tim has become my go to filter suppler for any format camera from half-frame to 4"x5". I have go to him for years, way before the sudden black & white contrast filter disappearance from the market.

About time.

Come to think of it, all my screw drivers are cordless, but then one must consider that they all lack the battery power that the OP refers to. 😛

I only remember seeing a focus confirmation light in Nikon AF cameras.

Some marks to the left appear to be fungus but the marks to the right appear to be scratches. I suggest that you first try lens cleaning fluid and gently wipe with a cotton ball. Then set the lens by a window for a week or two to see if the Sun's UV light clears up what appears to be fungus.

Generally anything I am interested in will usually get more expensive while the things I am not interested in loose their value.

Yes, I should have typed the front of the lens.

I have gotten the "Err" blinking message on Nikon AF slrs [N75, N90 and F100] when the lens is not mounted correctly.

Unfortunately my knees are no longer up to skiing that deep powder. On the other hand when I dream of deep powder skiing, I always make all the turns and never fall.

It is likely that you will have to trim the filters yourself.

On the two rear filter Nikon lenses a step up filter ring would not put the filter far enough away from the lens to not touch the glass.

For Fisheye and very wide angle lenses, the front lens surface is so curved that a filter cannot be put on the front of the lens without damaging the lens plus a front filter would not uniformly appear at the film plane.

I love this photograph!

If you purchase such a camera, you should plan on having a CLA done on it.

I found that XTOL worked will with all black & white films, however I found that the Ilford films came out thin with the posted times. Therefore I add one minute to the 68 degree F [20 degree C] time for all Ilford films.

I have used both the off brand 2X extender and the Hasselblad 2XE extender on the 500 mm C lens. Both work and are usable, but I found the 2XE a bit sharper.

I have been using XTOL stock and replenished for almost 20 years because it provides fine grain and great tonality.

I do not know how the plastic color filters would work. I only know about the Nikon made filters.

This happens almost every year on photo.net. Call it an annual event.

You are not alone.
