Yes they seemed very helpfull when I contacted them about that film, good comunication. I only found them when looking for a supplier for that vision3 film, I also have a roll of the 50D to try. It took nearly 2wks for it to be developed but then it does need to have the remjet removed so I...

Update: After a good go with the new screen the focus was off, it would appear the screen does not need shimming after all, although the screens are the thicknesses I mentioned above, the old FM screen is perfectly flat but the B3 is slightly raised on the polished side, so just took the shims...

Thanks for the replies. I managed to sort it, I got a B3 screen, borrowed a digital vernier and it comes out at 1.6mm, the old screen in my FM is 2.1mm, I successfully managed to modify the B3 screen and shim it to the same thickness to install in my FM. What a world of difference! The B3 is...

Ok thanks for your help. I just ordered one so will find out soon.

Ok many thanks.

Turned my computer on this morning, there was a bang and it went off, burning smell also. I took the PSU out, did the paper clip thing to see if it would run but no joy, had a good look at the motherboard, looks ok. So I'm hoping its just the PSU. The old one is 300w (HEC-300VP-2RE), just...

I know some people would like a copy of this book but it seems to go for a lot of money if you can find a copy. So I thought some would like to know that the publisher has scheduled a re-print this Autumn.

Thanks. Yes, he was taken in as a rescue by a friend of mine a few years ago, he started to lose the use of the lower part of his front legs, something todo with the nerves, one leg recovered but the other didn't and had to be amputated, after a while of moving around with all his weight on the...
