Yeah, I figured. Going to get some compressed air and blow off all the dust stuck on the felt rim under the back hatch, around the inside and wherever else I can reach.
I was mistaken, It turned out to be a Neopan Acros 100 roll
If my current roll of Ilford Delta is scratched it's definitively caused by dust and guck in the camera.

Just picked up my 5th Mju from a charity store - all $5 - this is my first Mju I, the others are IIs... must stop this Mju-compulsion! But they are so cheap...

The weirdest thing is that up to now I've never even thought about running B&W through the Mju-I. Given they're cheapies, I've only shot the cheapest color film in it, despite knowing full well that the Mju-I is a winner. Now, this image really shows you can make the Mju-I shine in B&W as well. (I'll admit you had a part in it too

Can anyone help. I also love my mjuII but the lens often got stuck and wont retract, it stays in longest position and it happens about twice per roll. :bang: How to solve this? I really like this little camera and used to carry it everywhere.
This one is in black color but I had silver one last year and lost it somewhere.

Peter, the cat photo was taken with cheap C-41 colour neg film (Fuji Superia 400) and bw converted in Lightroom, with additional processing using the PhotoLooks plug-in for LR/CS.

I've run mono through my Mju i. But I'm tending to shoot everything with a C41 colour at the moment, because of price & availability, though many of the shots are destined from the start to be black and white.

Sorry to bump up an old thread, i just have a question regarding my mju-1. Its working flawlessly but the battery (cr123a) keeps on dying evrytime i leave it in camera (camera turned off). I have killed over 5 fresh batteries and only shot about 4 rolls. Cr123a is nowhere near cheap, costs about 5dlrs here. Any advice? Thanks

First of all, with the clamshell closed, the top LCD of the Mju-I should be completely blank; not even showing a battery symbol nor a frame count. If the LCD remains on, then probably the on-off switch doesn't work correctly. If the LCD is off with the clamshell closed, then can you measure the current that the camera consumes when you close it? That should be zero.. otherwise, there's a leak somewhere.

Hey peter, thanks for the quick response. It does go off after i close the door. How do you measure the current? And if a leak does occur, whats the remedy? Thanks

With a multi-meter set to measure current in its most sensitive range (mA or preferably even uA) and some small cables with crocodile-clips you're ready to go. Take the battery out and using the cables with the battery and multi-meter in series, measure the current with the clamshell closed. With the clamshell closed, the current should be zero, or so small that it should take more than a year to drain the battery.
