That's really me
(I'm just cranky and complaining at this point)
As the month draws to a close, I end it with much less cameras than I entered it with.
First my Mamiya M645 has a shutter problem, the left side of my images comes out very overexposed.
Then my Canon P has a same shutter problem, this time the bottom half of the frame comes out very overexposed.
I buy a Kiev 4a and its riddled with light leaks and frame spacing issues. And this was bought from a reputable repairman too! We've been sending email back and fourth though. Not sure how to settle this besides posting this back to the other side of the world and back.
I also bought an RB67 from Keh, it jammed on the first roll. I sent it back and it seems their taking their sweet time to send a replacement.
What really got me was my Fed2 showing the same shutter problem. This was my most reliable camera and my most often used. Et tu, Feddy?
What are the odds? 5 cameras going bad in a single month. I'm out of cameras save for my Electro GSN and Pentax 6x7.
It's a good thing I also happened to run out of film too.
I got a feeling next month's going to be an expensive month!
ok no more complaining, I just had to get it out somewhere.
