What are you actually meaning by mirror slap?

Unfortunately I can't double check now as the camera in question is packaged up for return.

I don't really think we can do you a valuation, but as John K said, check eBay and SRS.

It's often a hard way to achieve things, but for what is and isn't possible then I'd suggest SRB Griturn, who make any adapter known to man and probably a few that aren't.

AF and metering are usually lost and sometimes infinity focus is too. Without an aperture ring, such as in DA lenses, then you might also find minimum aperture is the only available choice. Not good.

That is quite a list!

And many thanks for the update.

I think Vic's right that the equipment does help a little bit, because the best tools are always the easiest to use. The best workers can of course overcome less good tools, but ironically beginners will find the most benefit from using the best.

I did a recent EPZ blog showing my very first pictures with a Kodak Popular Brownie 620 Box Camera, certainly not the best tools!

Many thanks for sharing, it looks as though it delivers the goods. I fancy buying one of these, but it will have to wait for now.

Not before every shot oldhat, but we'd have to leave the camera switched on and then there would also be battery issues.

I understand where you're coming from but think it would be difficult to implement.

Probably because we expect our cameras to turn on and be ready to shoot in the shortest possible time.

Imagine the frustration and missed opportunities if we had to enter our PIN every time before making the shot.

I would say rather vivid and with a definite yellow/green bias. If you see the colours differently in Chrome and IE then you have a colour management issue. Use sRGB all through the workflow and you'll avoid it.

IE6 is rather old now by the way, but on a work machine I guess you'll have little choice.
