I was able to move it to the wide angle setting with force. Still stucked, only about 1mm movement when trying to turn the zoom lever.
There are 3 extremely tiny little screws in the lever ring (nearest to the body). If I open them, am I able to silde the lever out of the way and then maybe fix the ...

Needless to say I don't need motor to work, I only want the lens moving.
How stupid was this "fixing" operation of mine...
Should I use excessive force? If I do that, can the camera be totally broken?

I probably just stucked my lens completely, a zoom (focal length) ring does not move at all.
The camera itself is working perfectly, except that the motor for zoom was not. I started to play with the moving lever in order to make it work and now the lens is stucked at approximately 7 mm focal ...

I still wonder if somebody could help me, would be brilliant. Maybe I will make a test tomorrow, if the sun is shining..

I assume it is possible to use Schneiders Superwide lens Aspheric III with Chinon Pacific 200/12XL camera? Just put the camera lens to macro setting, focus at infinity and then start shooting? Looking through the wiewfinder, it appears that I have to adjust the macro setting a little bit, in order ...

I have used it without any problem. Battery also lasts very long time.

Yep, I will be more than enthusiastic to read it too.
Also separate story about Zeiss Ikon movie cameras would be brilliant! :arrow:

1- daylight with or without filter inside yoru camera

Thanks!
I think I won´t use the inside filter with my 1014 XL-S. Looks better without.

Thanks! You are probably right I might try it. Anyway my habit of using the camera is very instantaneous, I just shoot it and do not want to worry more about it -let the autoexposure do the thing kind of way..
It seems that 100D is not the stock to use for me.. what is it about the wrong notching?

I've got the same camera but I don't know if the internal meter will expose it properly, anyway I always use an external meter so I don't really care. I shot with all films from k40 to 500t (except 100d, but it doesn't really matter) and never had any problem this way. Considering you're probably ...

Is Wittnerchrome 100D out of the question with this camera? The manual says it accepts daylight films up to 19 DIN (EI64) and artificial light up to 21 DIN (EI100). Since 100D is a daylight film, I will not be able to use it with my great Zeiss camera? Any tricks that can solve the problem?
How ...

Brave or not, yes it could be the power supply (or motor?). The camera was outside relatively long time, -an hour/hour and a half or so. I was filming kids Cross country skiing "tournament" (the youngest competitor was 1 year old!, and no I did not catch it :cry: ) Does anyone have experience ...

Yep, it could be that it was exactly 0 celsius degrees outside and the weather was turning colder (towards minus) at the moment. I shot 24 fps. My camera has not done this before at all, so it is not the camera (or batteries-I checked, of course). I also noticed the stiffness in cart when I tried to ...

Today I was shooting Wittnerchrome 100D with my Canon 1014 XL-S, I also used pressureplate with the cartridge. First half of the film was running fine, but on the the second half I started experiencing trouble. Suddenly the film started jamming badly and after few seconds the motor stopped.
I took ...

Same goes for me too actually,
Great mag.
