Sightseeing Screwmount

sein06231 · 11-24-2009, 12:55 PM

The sightseer arrived yesterday. I was unable to open it till this afternoon. Very good protection on packing. I usually shoot Kodak NC/VC film. Since do not have a photography shop near where I can get some Fuji, I settle with Kodak gold 200 at my local CVS. Never use this film before & hopes it works for me. Today is cloudy and raining. So I shall see what can be done this weekend.
See you gentleman in a couple of days.

Kodak Gold spec sheet

Sein: If you haven't already found it, the original manual for the camera should be in a manilla envelope sleeve thing UNDER the wooden box but inside the cardboard box (if that makes sense). I totally forgot about it until I already had the wooden box packed up. Didn't want you to miss it!

Yes. I do find it. THANKS. Everything is in there including the meter.

I've been busy and haven't had much time to edit photos. I just asked for an invite to the Flickr group, though. Here's one that I particularly like:

Count me in!

**lawsonstone** · 12-27-2009, 07:10 PM

I'm waiting and excited to welcome the old visitor!

The Sightseer arrived to day well packed, well padded, and in superb shape to my somewhat inexperienced eye. It's a perfect time to play with it over the next week or so before my classes start up again.

Many thanks!

Who will I send it to when I'm done playing?

We aren't currently sending the Sightseer outside of the USA. However, should it end up on a world tour, we will keep you in mind.
