Questions for RC owners

[ruben]

All in all it is a great camera with outstanding features, for its size and prize. And we users, are all different one from the other, some of us are conquered by certain camera features while others not but by other features. It is very much an issue of couple compatibility.

Therefore, Lament, in the worst case you will be ending by using it some times, but I dont think you will depart with it.

Cheers,
Ruben

Oh, I forgot to mention: perhaps the worldwide quitest shutter ever ?

Super silent shutter + very very small sized camera + autoexposure = a mighty instrument.


Cheers,
Ruben

Thank you Trius for bringing me back to my senses

Hi Lament

I've just got a 35RC but am having to do the seals. It will be the first camera I have done this on. However I have a Jon Goodman kit and feel happy enough to have a go. You might find that you will have to do something similar.
I love the feel of the camera.
Best of luck

my take...

1 - locking the shutter? (in other words, never happened to mine, not in my posession at least)

2 - the vf is fine. nothing fancy, but nothing to complain about either.

3 - not a pain, but not excactly the best "aperture change handling" either.

4 - meter? oh, it has one..



jokes aside, it's a fine camera. no #1 strength is its small size, there is practically no excuse not to have it.

Yay, my RC has arrived.

First impressions: really small, really pretty, the viewfinder is definitely "nothing fancy". The rangefinder alignment is off in both directions and light seals have disintegrated, as expected. I'm running a roll through it and will see if i need to replace the seals.
