seriously tho... how do i know that the camera is functioning properly? i have no way to know if the shutter speed is correct or not as there is no indicator light on the camera if the batteries are fine... even if i inserted them correctly.
looks like my belair is dead-on-arrival... sigh... :mad2:

probably... even with fresh batteries, the bulb mode doesn't work... now i know why my first roll is blank cos the shutter is just stuck at one speed...
nightwolf75 did you insert batteries with correct polarity? They do not both face the same way! When you open the battery catch, take a small torchlight and shine it onto the circuit board inside the battery compartment. You will be able to see the correct polarity labelled on the circuit board. I would take a quick picture for you but the belair is no longer with me, was my gf's christmas present haha.
Btw, does anyone know how loose the lens are supposed to be when mounted? I'm not sure if I mounted them properly all the way and did not want to force anything in case something breaks. But they are so loose even the zone focal ring is tighter so you will twist the lens right off the mount when using the focal ring.

no... it was in the right way...
i brought it down to lomo embassy SG today... and yep. it is dead. they are kind enough to replace it for me. problem is the stocks are only arriving mid-jan.
the good ones, yes. i send my MF films to fotohub. triple D over at burlington square also does it.
