    Please allow me to inquire. In 2024 Olympus pen f Still interesting to buy and use? I found 1, a shutter number of over 52000. Is this the real number of shutters? And is it still usable?

    Very late for this. Just a comment on something you said about there being no gears. My unit died, the way most of these do, and have seen on YT. I decided I have nothing to lose, so I opened my unit up. Don't want to nit-pick, but there is actually a geared focus motor, which is usually the culprit of the dead lens, the nylon gear gets jammed and under the strain the nylon gear splits and the gear teeth are stripped or cracked. In my case, I didn't have that particular issue. My issue seemed to be jammed Iris blades. They would get stuck in their tracks. I got some dry lubricant and placed some on the iris blades and iris tracks: took me a few times to get it working. I now have this great little walk around lens working again, yay!! I primarily use it on the Sony NEX5R, but it works well on the Sony A7R2 as well, in crop mode, of course. thanks for the great video.

  • @HembreeBoudoir

    I have a long winded question. So I have the sony a7riii and I'm using two Godex TT600s with Yongnuo transmitters. If I put the transmitter on the cameras hotshoe and then put the flash on it, it does not work. the trigger will make the camera take a photo but will not trigger the flash so I have to put the flash directly on the camera and then plug in the transmitter with a cord to the camera so it has to dangle. Any idea why that is?

  • @LavikkaPhotography
    @LavikkaPhotography2 ай бұрын

    That's an odd one.i haven't played with those transmitters. The simple solution is get a Godox transmitter and have full control over those tt600s.

    I converted my Rx100V, quite a bit less involved than this but still extremely nervewracking. The hot mirror snapped while removing it(it's only wafer-thin) so that was a moment of panic. Also got shocked by the flash cap no less than 3 times. Not too bad overall, still wouldn't reccomend. If you're just getting started in infrared, perhaps modify a cheap old point and shoot, some you just remove the back cover/screen and the sensor is right there, having only removed like 5 screws.

    I won a sony a300 from ebay auction for cheap, plan to make it my first self-converted FS camera. keeping my good (nikons) cameras as is, probably sending a better one in in the future so it's professionally done.

    Good review and information! I've owned the Samyang 45mm f1.8 for years, it's my only modern lens and I'm very pleased with it. Why do you limit your audience to the only country left which uses antiquated measurements? Saying or putting up text for us folks in the rest of the world would make your videos more welcoming to us, at a minimum. There is a huge world outside the USA.

    Do the smart thing, set this to the slow profile method that uses 10k plus samples and go to sleep. Process takes about 4 hours, one monitor per night. Also, DisplayCal now disables the monitor sleep mode while running

    This just tells me that Americans will do anything to make everything conform to what they want/like. Even defacing the proper name of a brand for it just to sound what they want. Identity has value and calling someone or something something is the bare minimum or respect. I'm telling you, for the longest time here in asia Nikon is always pronounced "Neekon".
