Re: Canon 814 question

Sorry I forgot to write this in my last post. So if I open the camera can I fix the problem? Do I have to open the camera like it said in the site of faulty manual aperture fix? Thanks.

velvia 50D question

Hi, is there another company that sell Velvia 50D beside Spectra film & Video, the film cost is expensive, if you compare the 64T stock that you paid in Dwayne's Photo vs. Spectra there is a difference around $10.00.

Thanks
