Thanks Jonathan-Mac, that seems to work, so all systems go.
Film in, lens attached and all aspects of the camera seem to be working.
many thanks,
Deryn

Hi all, I have my P30n and a roll of film.
Q - should I be able to operate the winder without film?
Q - when I have film in place, and the door shut, should I be able to wind on?
Q - if I can't operate the winder am I doing something wrong?

Thanks, that brings me up to speed now.
I probably have an antiquated view of SLR's as it really surprises me to hear about 'electrical contacts' e.t.c.

Hi and thanks guys, BUT, I havn't got a clue what all that means!?
I go to the shop and buy a roll of film, is that the canister?
What is a bulk spool?
How does a manual film camera 'read' a DX coding?
DX coding labels - and do what with them?

Hi all, if I am correct in that the p30n has no camera ISO control, how do you alter ISO? Is it down to film choice?

Thanks Peter, the lens was advertised as 'fixed aperture', so obviously wrong!

I have been using a hoya X400 (around 9 steps) on my K10. A bit cliche, but yes, slowing waterfalls and milky sea's.
Do the same principles apply to a 35mm film camera? Or using for portraits in bright sunlight?
