Thanks All, I finally did have a pretty good look at the Camera. There are no holes in the bellows the lens plate and lens are there, so is what I think is the focus plate, no hood came with it but a towel worked just fine. I figured out the fstop and shutter speed, BUT what I can't figure out is how you focus it. I think the lens is suppose to slide back and forth on its track, but how do you keep the shutter open to focus it.
I'll get it eventually, with all your help, much appreciated

Here's more for you to try.

*http://regex.info/exif.cgi
*Get Irfanview (free) and also get the plug-ins for it. Start the program, open a photo, click on Image > Information > Exif info.
*Get ExifInfo - also free. Unzip and get the icon onto the Desktop. Find a photo and drag it onto the icon. A window will open with loads of info. Look down the list for Shutter Count (or whatever they call it).

Are any of you fans of the Original Star Trek? Remember the episode where a life form invaded the ship and fed on anger, hostility, and rage? The crew finally defeated it by getting their emotions in check, and literally laughed the creature off the ship.

This guy is a troll and feeds on all these responses. In a way it's a lot like some here who specialize in invectives and vitriol on the political discussions. They don't discuss, they 'stir'. And it's the venom and the exchange of insults that serve as food for their egos. If we would leave his ridiculous treads totally empty, I think he'd just wither up and disappear.

The Star Trek episode that he reminds me of is the one with the kids before puberty on a planet that were healthy, yet all the parents died, but soon as they go through puberty they get this disease. Maybe it's just the change, young or old??

Honestly, I don't recall any posts by Tarkus. I think I would've remembered the name, but I'll go back and check. Maybe it was in threads that I just didn't read.

Do go back and check. He started a stink a couple of days ago. Also, once he starts a thread he has NEVER gone back and responded on it.

THANKS

What you can get varies considerably. When I'm back on my computer, I'll send you a link.

Here are charts showing shutter failure. Testing is one thing, but real world experience is another. Even if the shutter fails, it can be repaired for a reasonable cost.

Here are some links that might not have been mentioned yet.

I get it now. Your needs from this hobby and mine differ. I've got the wildest machine that a retired IBM MCSE never could have imagined possible, but there will always be someone else with a better box and theoretical arguments against why my equipment deviates from the accepted norm that the gutless sheep subscribe to.

We're all doing just fine here. Let the flames begin! Just for General info, and to cut down on the PM traffic, Tarkus was the second general album release from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. Anyone that didn't get that didn't need to ask the question.

I got this at an estate sale of a good friend, paid $50 for it because I thought it was pretty neat and I was going to see if I could get it to work. Well that was over a year ago and I still don’t know anything about it. All I know is what it says on the small metal plate on its front.
Any help would be appreciated, and is it worth anything, I’d never sell it but for insurance stuff. Also what size of negative does it take and can you still get the negatives.
Thanks
Swede

How do I find the shutter count of my Nikon D200 and D2X, I use them both a fair bit. Just kinda curious, and what would I expect to get out of them.
Thanks in advance for you help.
