With the autom. B function on the nizo 561 exposure is determined automatically by the external light meter. I just lock the shutter open, click it over to continuous roll then switch it on.
thanks to all who've watched!

Thanks for the tip. Hey, do you think it would still work for night time autom.B streaking light, etc. fun??

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Nope, no sign of needle when I turn it in manual mode. I opened the shutter, locked all the way to 'b' held it to the the light and ran it. Can't see any opening or closing of the aperture when I twist the control dial...

Looking though the viewfinder I cannot see the indicator needle moving across the aperture numbers at the bottom of the viewfinder in either auto or using the button in manual mode, although the lightmeter that controls the autom.B frame rate seems to be working (I point at light, the clicks ...

Hi, I'm going to be in LA for a month or so and would like to know where to pick up some film/processing. Is there a place like the Widescreen centre we have here in London?

Gotta brush up on my Bresson!

Sure, let the actors play themeselves but you as the writer still have to create the circumstances under which they act - the circimstances against which they react. Reacting is acting (or something...I'm still trying to figure it out...)

Frankly, I'm not a good ...

Have you seen any of the films by the Dardenne brothers? Brilliant characterisation without the glut of dialogue and exposition found in many films. Deceptively simple in style and technique. If you haven't have a look at Rosetta, The Son and L'Enfant.
Character is action; action is character...

what were you cooking?
