    Hi, great video! I recently bought this camera and am excited to start shooting with it! I'm looking into film and I'm interested in getting the Ektar 100, but I think it's only available with 36 exposures. Since the counter for this camera only goes up to 24, would it be possible to use a 36 exposure film? Would it automatically start rewinding once the counter hits 24? Thanks!

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hi! Quick ques: do I snap the photo AS the green light indicator is flashing, or once it’s just lit up/has stopped flashing? A number of my shots have come out blurry. Overall a great camera and I love it!

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hello! From my understanding when the light is solid green that is when it has locked focus and should be good to shoot. Let me know if this is what you find to be true!

    Hi! I noticed there are two versions the telemax date and the normal telemax. I know it says the telemax date can imprint the date on the pictures but otherwise are the cameras themselves different and do they take photos differently?

    Just picked up one of these and a Olympus Trip 35 for £25 at a local charity shop. Olympus Trip 35 is much more me since I use a Nikon SLR and feel more comfortable with all manual. Luckily both work including the Trips selenium cells light meter. Guess I have two point and shoots one for colour one for black and white and my Nikon SLR now.

    I can’t tell if my comment got posted but do you have to manually set the ISO to match the film speed? I’ve only ever used old totally manual cameras so I feel like I’m missing a step haha

    It doesn’t seem like it, but do we have to manually set the ISO on the camera to match the speed of the film? Or does the camera automatically sense it? I’ve only used very old totally manual cameras 😂

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      What’s going on with it? The film isn’t advancing? Or it advances but shutter won’t fire? Either way try putting white vinegar on a cotton swab and clean the metal contacts where the film is put in. Might not be recognizing the film. Let me know how that goes! 👍

  • @awaisbaig7906
    @awaisbaig7906 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey I recently picked this camera up and I’m having some troubles with it, I noticed the zoom in function wasn’t working and when I inspected the inside of the camera I noticed the film had prematurely winded and finished, it was supposed to have 30ish shots but I only took around 14, when I took the roll out I noticed the zoom in feature started working again when there was no film inside. Any tips on what to do or if you can help diagnose the problem with it? Would greatly appreciate the help.

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Might not be getting enough power. Try wiping battery contacts with white vinegar and see if that helps. 👍

  • @alexhorn3353
    @alexhorn3353 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I saw the camera lens is 38mm. How much different will it look sense it takes 35mm film? What about when using the 70mm lens? How will this all appear on 35mm film?

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      35mm is the format or size of film. It has nothing to do with focal length when zooming in or out. It doesn’t work the same way as say a cropped sensor or 35mm sensor on a digital camera. Does this make sense? 👍

  • @romeropau_5
    @romeropau_5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    In your opinion, is the canon sureshot 76zoom better than this telemax? THANK YOU!🙌🤗

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey! I can only speak to quality of build and popularity as I’ve not shot with either. The Telemax is very popular on eBay and the extra cost reflects that. The 76 feels like a more solid build.. more compact. Both are a great choice! I will do some shooting with both and post to TH-cam at some point to get a better comparison. 👍

    thanks for the vid! i just shot my first roll and haven’t yet gotten it developed but i was wondering if my telemax shot any blanks? basically the number was at 18 so i had about 6 shots left but when i did the self timer for a group pic, the film jumped to 24 and started automatically rewinding. it rewinded completely just fine but now i’m worried i just shot a bunch of blanks on my first roll :( any thoughts or suggestions?

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hard to know for sure until you get the shots back. Have you run a dummy roll through the camera yet? I always recommend doing that a few times first when you pick up a new to you film camera. Any quirks it might have will be faster to find and less expensive! Could be a one time hiccup or a chronic problem. Hope this helps!

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh no! Sorry to see this happened Kaydon! I've had a couple where this has happened. Seems to be common. Does the switch not move? Is it stuck too? Or switch moves and lens does not? Either way I've not come across a fix for this issue yet. I've had to dump those cameras as non working. Are you able to return the camera? Where did you get it?

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a great question! You would think that it would mean no batteries put in and not tested. However I’ve found some sellers have their own definition so you need to be careful when buying untested. I’ve had someone tell me they put batteries in it and it didn’t work so they couldn’t test it! 😳 I will be making some videos on how to do your research before pulling the trigger.

    • @TeddyJuras
      @TeddyJuras  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmm you will need to test a couple things to see what’s going on. Could just be counter is bad or film advance isn’t working. If counter is bad no big deal cause film rewinds automatically at end. But if film advance broken then not looking good. Might need yourself a dummy roll of film so you don’t waste a good roll when testing it. 👍

  • @Pythonette
    @Pythonette 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Every motorized auto-advance Canon I've had has a tiny radial on the bottom, marked with a sort of fast-forward icon, into which one may stick the end if a paper clip (or something of similar size) in order to force a mid-roll rewind.
