I have this camera (or a version, no date function on mine) but the ball bearing under the front cover is missing so it doesn’t stay powered on. Is there any info on the size and type of ball bearing used, or maybe a video on how to replace and position the ball bearing?
Hi I just bought this camera. Do the outer frame lines in the viewfinder represent the borders of what is actually caught on film when you take a picture, or does the camera capture beyond the outer frame lines? Thanks.
Yes it represents the borders. However you have to pay attention to not put your fingers in front of the lens, because the viewfinder shows something different then what the camera takes. The viewfinder is above the lens, and on my first roll on all my photos my fingers were in front of the lnes, which I however didnt notice by then as I'm looking through the viewfinder and not the lens.
There is a mirror that will drop down like a DSLR. You can see it by turn on the camera > switch to the top lens > open up the back without any film loaded.
hi! I have the same exact camera but my film wont load. It wont make the whirring sound and the counter stays on 0. Already tried extending the film more. Any way to fix this?
from the looks of it, the film is not catching onto the advance spool. there may many factors to this. best to bring the camera to a repair shop for further assessment. :)
Hi ! thanks for the video. I have the same camera and I was wondering whether the AF assist lamp that you point to in 2:01 is supposed to light up during focusing, or at least in low light conditions. This could maybe be the reason why mine has some trouble focussing properly..
@@8storeytree ah okay thanks! so actually, there is no AF assist lamp on this camera at all? Any other tips for beter focussing in low light conditions?
@@timothy4854 haven't experienced focusing issue in low light personally, though u can try using higher iso films. It shd help with the aperture selections since it's dx coded.
Hi, I have the same camera to you, but I cannot turn on the date stamp or I do not know how to active this function. Ive tried to press the "mode" button,but I had nothing shown on the LCD. So, can u tell me how to turn it on? thank you❤️
I have one of these cameras. When I put its batteries in and open the mechanism, a red light comes on in front of the camera, but the display does not show any type of information, it remains blank. Has this happened to someone?

How to check if the film is loaded properly?
I just got one of these and I'm curious about how changing the lens works cause I see the viewfinder changes but not the lens itself

@@8storeytree already got it to work! Thought i had to put the film while the cam was on.
@@kairarolida5878 does that matter though? I put mine in while the camera was on and it worked fine
hi! I have the same problem ! How did you fixed this?

that's actually the self-timer indicator light. not an AF assist lamp. was pointing to the word 'AF' . :D

Probably need to replace the batteries for the date back.
where's the battery place for the date?🙏🏻
@@muhammadfaisalpratama6563 have you figured it out yet? i have the same question.
wena choro me compré la misma. ahora me gustaría ver las fotos reveladas xd
hello does this have flash off option ?

Hello, are you guys able to assist in changing batteries for the Quartz date? And is it possible to still set the year 2022? Thank you
ah sorry. somehow missed ur comment. nope, we do not have battery changing service. :( as for the date, most older cameras are unable to set to 2022.
Does it print date on pictures
yes. th-cam.com/video/C5f1wQm0RmE/w-d-xo.html
@@8storeytree thanks for the reply, mine had its battery taken out for the qd
Why does my date not showing up? Display is not working… will it print random dates now?
really depends what's causing it. if it's screen display issue, then probably.
how to turn off date stamps on pictures?
change to __/__/____
Let's say you use an experimental film without a DX code. What would you do??
depends on the film iso. camera defaults to 100 without iso. if itt's higher, u can get dx code stickers.
hey what type of battery does this use?
cr123
Hi quick question: I have the same camera but my optical system won't change. Is this a possible damage?
i suppose it's somehow stuck or having electronic issues.
I have one of these cameras.
When I put its batteries in and open the mechanism, a red light comes on in front of the camera, but the display does not show any type of information, it remains blank.
Has this happened to someone?
What type of battery do I need do you have an amazon link?
@@flo.friese3366 CR123 batteries. Sometimes just called 123 batteries or CR123A batteries
Why may cam did not date?😥
there may be different models / variants available.
hello i think this is a very ignorant question but im gonna ask anyway, does every camera and also this olympus need an sd card?
No it does not use an sdcard.
@@8storeytree okay thanks! one more question, is this olympus af 1 twin a point and shoot cam?
@@scarletui2803 yep it is.
Hey, the buttons on my AF1 suddenly stopped working. Everything else, like the display works fine. Is the camera broken?
think best to have a camera repairman assess on it and advise you on that.
hi! how to turn off the date stamp?
__.__.___ will turn off the date stamp.
