Mb 145 Question


kandarp

Recommended Posts

On a different subject, I have an excellent MB 145 with its Chompin Box for sale. Asking price $200 Shipped, anyone interested. </Sarcasm>

 

:roflmho:

 

What happens if the seller refuses to help, would eBay override him and get me a refund? (I wish I'd used a credit card, :bonk: )

I gotta point out for all the good folk out there.

 

The advent of relatively inexpensive automated laser based measuring systems means that it is really, really easy to copy anything with very great precision. When you tie in measuring with computer aided drafting and computer driven milling, the fakes today will match the original dimensions of every part exactly.

 

Yes, there are some serial numbers that we do know are fake, but the same technology used to etch that number can today increment serial numbers.

 

Fakes will just be getting closer and closer to the originals by almost every measure, it is only the material qualities and hand craftsmanship that will make a difference.

 

The buyers best bet is still knowledge and common sense. If the deal looks too good, walk away.

Opened a case with eBay. Lets see what happens.

 

I figured I'd ink the pen and use it for a day or so, (I hate admitting this) it writes fairly well! Almost like a scratchy 144.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
