Frame CounterEdit
A frame counter or exposure counter is a mechanism for recording the number of film frames exposed or for calculating the number of exposures remaining on a roll of film or memory card.

The visual frame counters are two small red windows, similar to those used on the much loved box brownie of many yester years. There is a slide to close the red windows when not being used.

- Reset the frame counter to 0. Turn noise-reduction off. Make sure the maximum continuous buffer is at its highest setting (Max Continuous Release on the D3).

The M2 lacked the self-resetting film frame counter of its predecessor.
M1 - 1959 - 1964 (9,392 sets were manufactured). A stripped version of the M2 for scientific/technical use, the M1 was a viewfinder camera with no built-in rangefinder.

Extras to look for are, focus signals (all auto focus cameras have this), frame counter, metering mode indicator, flash OK signal, AE-lock indicator, exposure mode, manual focus indicator, and flash compensation.

Magnifying lens: even under-40 eyes may have trouble with Nikonos frame counters, instrument readings and small sea life--especially at night. Alternatively, custom precription corrective lenses.

You load it like other 120 cameras. You also need to remember to reset the frame counter manually. The entire back slides off for loading.

Check that the flashgun fires when the shutter is released, thus exposing the leader of the film - usually the first two or three frames before the frame counter registers '1'. This is also an excellent opportunity to observe the flash recycle time.

However, if you have an older EOS camera with an electromechanical frame counter then you may need to add a blank frame for safety purposes. Check my article on infrared photography to see which type of film positioning system your camera uses.

cover an average wedding to their usual standards of quality. Both Canon and Nikon offer high quality f/2.8 wide-to-tele zooms designed for a small sensor-body. These lenses are less expensive and physically smaller than their full frame counterparts.
