I will soon be taking some shots indoors of detailed items & don't want to use flash, the lighting is low voltage helogen (24v transformer) there is enough light for the Fugi Velvia or Provia I will be using, & NPC160 or Superia 100 print films. But will I need any corection filters? I can't find anything mentioned regarding Helogen, though there is pleanty of info on other light forms.
Can anyone help me on this please?

Hi, My wifes ex father in law has a Spotmatic 2 from the early 70s, he has asked me if I could find out where he could get a zoom lens(s) covering the 70-300mm range with the screw thred mount (I think its 42mm). If these are not available, he seems to think there is an adaptor to take the bayonet (K) mount, I have not seen anything advertised, can anyone help on this? He will NOT change his camera, & is only on a pension so cant afford too much.

Hi Stephen, I cant recomend a repairer but I will recomend that you DON'T use A.J. & V. Dufton of Oldham, Lancs. I have had a camera in there since the begining of last May, & am now having to resort to legal action to get it returned, still un repaired.

I was going to get a Power Grip for my MZ5N so that AA batteries could be used as they are more available. I could also charge up enough to power the camera & flash. But here comes the problem, some books/mags/shops praise there use others say they can ruin my equipment. Which is right, if the latter why?
