RD1 Questions?

[Stigbo]

Hi All,

As a Bessa owner I've been lurking here for a while and I am now seriously
considering the RD1 (if they show up again on the refurb.site).

However, I am curious as to the batt charger. Does it in the US come as a
universal 110-240V or 110V only?

Also, can someone direct me to a site where i can download a Raw ERF.

Cheers

Its a universal charger - you might just need a plug adapter from Radio Shack or similar if you buy one from outside the US. Mine is marked 100-240v, 50-60hz...

Happy to send you an ERF, PM me your email address...

Stigbo,
Like Terao said about the charger if you get one from outside the US, all you need to do is change the power cord. I used one from Radio Shack (#61-2876).

As for the erf's, I've uploaded a few junk shots to my website that you can download and play with. They are around 10mb each. I'll leave them up until after Christmas.

Thanks guys!

Yes, universal charger is what I expected. The Epson info site didn't specify that.

And for mwooten, thanks for the link.

Check out this post from waldemarski regarding getting an automated heads-up . . .

plus the discount code! . . .

Some helpful links:

www.aignes.com has a program called Web Watcher, which enabled me to snag an R-D1 yesterday. I had it set to check the Epson website every 5 minutes on a running computer and send an SMS to my cell phone when it changed.

http://www.couponcabin.com/coupons/epson/index.htm has coupons for Epson products (obviously, other items as well if you recurse the URL). The 10% off code (6ZNAXFP) is good until Dec 31st, 2006.

hope this helps!

now waiting for my R-D1 and CV Nokton 50/1.5 to arrive...
