eastar tlr manualThe camera is in excellent condition and is great looking. Uses 120 roll film. L ooks like it was used very little. The shutter works and also the the self timer works. Everything opens with no problem. One thing I really like about this camera is how heavy it is.without film its 2 lbs exactly. I'm not a camera collector and know next to nothing about them.other than the obvious. If I was a collector this camera would be on my TOP shelf. If you have any questions please ask them before you make a bid. Be sure to read my seller feedbacks then. FREE SHIPPING. Thanks for looking. Acquired via a local estate sale. The owner was a photographer and appeared to have care very well for her equipment. Please see the pictures and feel free to send mey any questions you may have and I will answer promptly. One with the 645 mask in, and one without.Can you tell us anything about the brand or where it was made. Is the lens made by a known manufacturer. What is it called? Thanks! - Murray I have heard of the brand Seagull back in the 1970s, and these are of similar design, as described herein: Found some background on Chinese TLRs here, including the Eastar (seems to be a derivative of the Seagull 4b). I remember the Seagull TLRs. Would the Eastar have a three- or four-element lens? - Murray Some years ago, a friend of mine got a Seagull (doesn't remember which model) for peanuts, as her first foray into TLR territory. The pictures she took with it were quite nice. Alex There are a couple on eBay I see. I may have to get one. I remember the Seagull TLRs. Would the Eastar have a three- or four-element lens? - Murray In either event it out performs some triplets I've used in other old TLRs. I’ll post some pics when I get it cleaned up and have the time to shoot a roll. The pics on here are quite impressive!

It was introduced in the late 1960s to complement the 1964 Seagull 4, and is reputedly still in production 40 years later.The fixed finder hood, which has the Seagull logo on top, consists of two parts that open and folds without trouble. It has a built-in action finder and a critical focusing magnifier. The finder screen is plain without any special focusing aids.Below the taking lens is a small self-timer lever. The to sliding knobs surrounding the same are the shutter speed and aperture selectors. The camera face beneath the taking lens is inscribed in Chinese and English, the latter reading Shanghai China. The Rollei-style nameplate in front of the finder hood is inscribed in Chinese, presumably reading Seagull.The camera stands at four short studs.http://schlammatlas.de/en/node/21172 The back-hinges, with strap fixing-studs, extends almost to the front, are adorned with black stripes, and are secured by two screws either side. The serial number is engraved on the top in front of the finder hood. Cameras for the local market has a hole drilled and filled with red paint after the serial number. The camera comes with a sturdy hard leather ever-ready case and carrying strap with special hooks. Do you guys know ANYTHING about this camera?Would be happy if other manufacturers had done so. Maybe most of them. Maybe most of them. Not to talk about the russians and germans but also no one of my japanese rangefinders has it. SLR yes, but not rangefinders.How to get to the shutter blades. Hong Kong from around 1957. Takes 12 frames on 120 film.A similar camera, with the same body and lens but different shutter and aperture controls, was the Halina Viceroy, of 1960. I listed it as used because there are some signs that it is vintage, see photos, If you need any other photos of details etc, please let me know. The Eastar was produced by the Tianjin Camera Factory, and is a 6x6 TLR sharing the same basic design as the Seagull 4B. It uses knob film advance with a red window for frame counting, with an option to mask the film gate to 6x4.5 cm (to yield 16 exposures per roll of 120 film).

It's a shame that lenses of different focal length were not made for this camera. From what I've read, other lenses were planned, but were never made. Specifications: Taking Lens: Coated 90mm, 1:3.5, in M39 thread screw mount. Focussing from 1m to infinity. Viewing Lens: Non interchangeable waist level viewfinder.http://internetdeputy.com/images/canon-st-e2-user-manual.pdf Ground glass has lines for 6x4.5 and full-frame 35mm. Shutter: Metal guillotine shutter. Features: Selectable ruby window frame counter, self timer, hot shoe, flash sync socket Maybe someone makes a 39 to 42mm screw mount adapter. I don't know if it's possible, just a thought. Doug I'm sure you're bound to run into a GW DF camera yet. About using 39mm screw lenses. Most 39mm screw lenses are designed for coverage on 135 film and for a shorter flange to film plane distance. Here's a nice pdf file that explains this special situation with the Great Wall DF camera. Jack A fairly common camera in China as it was in production for a pretty long time. Parallax-corrected bright line framing. Features: Self timer, cold shoe, flash sync socket and parallax correcting viewfinder. The camera didn't come with that accessory, but it wouldn't be too hard to make one by replacing the glass from a cheap polarizing filter with some black plastic cut the same way as the original accessory. Bright line framing and meter.I really don't know a lot about this camera. Parallax-corrected bright line framing. Features: Shutter release button lock, cold shoe, flash sync socket (on the side near the film rewind) and parallax correcting viewfinder. Only about 7000 Panda SLRs were ever made. The first 1000 had a panda engraved on the front of the pentaprism housing above the Chinese writing. There are two sync connections, X and FP sync. The lens has a DOF preview lever. In 1977, after the Harbin Electrical Instrument Factory ceased producing the Panda SLR, they started production of the Peafowl SLR. The Peafowl SLR is based on the same design as the Panda. Two differences that I see are that the Peafowl SLR dropped the motor drive capability and replaced the cold shoe with a hot shoe. There are two sync connections, X and FP sync. The Seagull DF is based on Minolta's SR-2 camera. Since it uses the Minolta lens mount, all MD manual focus lenses can be used. There are two sync connections, X and FP sync. The lens has a DOF preview lever. Photax (Eastbourne), were the importers in the UK, but there was a lot of trade resistance in the late 1970's to them, the thinking being people did not want to buy cameras with Chinese writing on them. Several Minolta owners bought them, and they seemed very reliable, very few problems I can remember offhand. Stephen. Here's a Seagull DFB with 50mm lens. Seagull manufactured a small range of cameras without viewfinders mainly for laboratory or industrial use. The three cameras were the DFAB, DFB and DFC. These cameras used specially adapted optics. The most common lens for these cameras was a 58mm 1:2 focus adjustable lens. This lens had a shallow range of focus from 0.5 to 2 meters. The only other lens I know of and which I have for my camera is the quite rare fixed focus 50mm 1:1.4 lens. Both the 58mm and 50mm lenses do not have diaphragms, so are used wide open at f2 and f1.4, respectively. These cameras could also be fitted with microscope adapters. From my own unscientific measurement, the 50mm lens has it's sharpest focus at 65cm (25.5 inches) between the object and the film plane. I simply displayed an enlarged resolution test pattern on my computer screen and adjusted the camera position until I had the sharpest image I could see on a ground glass I attached to the film plane. Then I measured the distance from my computer screen to the ground glass which resulted in 65cm, give or take a few millimeters. Specifications: Lens: Coated 50mm, 1:1.4. Fixed focus, sharpest with object placed 65cm from film plane. Shutter: Cloth horizontal focal plane shutter with two speeds, B and T. Features: No viewfinder, two shutter speeds, B and T. These had the writing on the pentaprism replaced with SEAGULL etc., and the made in China only had European script as well. They left the Seagull logo on the front. Stephen. Read this fake article for a good chuckle. It was an April Fools joke.;D Jack One company I can think of at the moment is Kalamar. I have a Kalamar TLR which is just a re-branded Seagull 4A TLR.

I am a beginning photographer, currently, taking pictures with my ipho. I just got one for next to nothing and. Photos and description do not disclose such things at this site. It always a crap shoot when you order from them. I did get one nice Nikon lens that was in the picture but not listed in the description. It is worth more than what I paid for the whole lot. Unfortunately, it is a manual focus lens and does not work well on my N80’s. I got one digital camera with the lot that was donated back to the local Goodwill. One of the cameras was a dirty Argus Seventy five. This camera model was made in Ann Harbor Michigan from 1949 to 1958. This camera is a TLR with one shutter speed and one F stop, basically a box camera. I decided to take it apart and clean it up. Figuring I wasn’t out much if I couldn’t get it back together again. They are pretty simple cameras and are easy to disassembly and reassemble. I took a lot of pictures with the Cannon S95 to document the process and help me remember what went where. I knew that 620 and 120 film were the same size only the spool size is different. I took it out for a try last Saturday. It was cold and I thought the shutter might stick. The shutter did not sound right on the first few frames. I looked and the little slider was on time (bulb) so shutter stayed open until I released shutter button. I moved the slider up to instant and it performed as it should. Below are a few of the pictures I took after the moving the slider back to instant. In bright sun it takes great pictures. Large scale commercial 620 film production has stopped, but you can still buy 620 film from The FPP. They also sell 620 spools to load with regular 120 film yourself.

I've stared at the photo on the right many a time, a Christmas morning snap of my gramps opening up a gift camera in 1974 or thereabouts. I'm not 100 convinced I got the right one, but either way I've a yet another nice arrival. All cured and shined up this morning. A solidly made and reliable little shooter, evidently a lower-tier Topcon model but still quality (but for the sparse pickings in the UV mount variety), i'ts metering nicely and with working shutter-priority as well manual. A nifty little 70s example that's as of yet still comparatively dirt-cheap on the used market.Click to expand. I have a couple of similar Topcons and both leaked light at both ends of the door, so it would certainly pay to check the seals in these areas.Even these mid-range Topcons are beautifully built and the Topcor lenses are excellent.

View attachment 1323903 They don't look too awful but they're certainly a gooey mess in spots. I've been shooting my T3n a fair bit recently but my T4 has become the daily driver. I recently acquired an FT-1 Motor, which I'd wanted for quite some time.Konica AR is new-to-me in the past 3 or so years, but has all but replaced my Pentax system (K and m42) as the favorite. Really enjoy those cameras and glass and wish I'd had a go much earlier on!I've rechecked the bellows and couldn't discover anything there. So I added some additional padding to the film chamber edges. We'll see how it goes this time.I already have a copy of the BC 1 but the shutter has become a little unpredictable, and I was pleased when this collection became available. The BC1 was considered a semi-professional camera, offering aperture priority automation with full manual override, and there was a large range of accessories and lenses available; I prefer it to the later BX series which were electronically more advanced but featured lighter construction with a greater use of plastic. I've run a short test film and I'll try do do something more serious in the weekend. I look forward to seeing some images.But that's going to change this weekend.For those who might be interested, there's a dossier on the lens here: Possibly Canon's Earliest Zoom I think Canon used the design for a number years as they upgraded their lens mount to allow for open aperture metering on later models. Later, Soligor offered a lens of this range for about half the price, but I'm sure the Canon outperformed it.It's a while since I used stop-down metering and one forgets just what a clumsy procedure it was!Several times I've thought about looking for an 85-205 to use on my Spotmatic. I found an old Eastar F-120 in my house and I figured out how to take photos, but i dont know what a twins reflex lens is or what other things mean on the camera. I'm not even sure where to get the film or what kind I will need, so I can use it. It's from China, so I'm thinking maybe that's why I can't find anthing. I'd like a manual to learn more about it, but I can't find one. Please tell me any info you know about it or where I can find out how. Answer Save 1 Answer Relevance cabbiinc Lv 7 1 decade ago Favorite Answer It's a TLR. Rollei's are the most popular TLRs, this is sort of in the same category. From what I've seen of the Eastars they aren't horrible cameras but they aren't worth a whole lot either. They use 120 film. Look for 120 film at requires minimum purchase You may actually see something like your camera for sale here as well. There's also one off types of 120 film here.

How about auditioning EastWest’s ProDrummer for the job? All these products now use EastWest’s own Play 4 engine, albeit often with a customised front-end interface. The latest additions to the EastWest roster are actually two related products, called ProDrummer Vol 1 and ProDrummer Vol 2. The core function of these libraries is not unlike BFD3 or Superior Drummer, in that each library provides you with some mega-detailed, sample-based acoustic drum kits, full mixing facilities, effects options and a huge collection of MIDI drum patterns. EastWest’s own Doug Rogers provided the glue to bring it all together. Unfortunately, given that that catalogue is (a) extensive and (b) expensive (undoubtedly value for money, but this is top-end stuff), you would need a loan from someone who actually is a successful Hollywood composer in order to fill said RAID array. And, if it finds its way to the top of your wish-list, should you go for a one-off payment or subscribe to Composer Cloud? You get a stand-alone version of Play 4 plus plug-in versions in VST, AU and AAX formats. Play itself requires a 64-bit OS but, even though a 64-bit host is also recommended, I was able to run Play with ProDrummer using the 32-bit version of Cubase Pro 8. The four large buttons arranged along the top edge provide access to other elements of the interface. The Settings pane is where you configure various settings for the instrument, including useful features for streamlining the engine’s workload if your host system needs a little help. The Browser screen allows you to switch between your various Play libraries or browse within the contents of the two ProDrummer volumes to find the preset kit you wish to load. The options for controlling your drum mix are, therefore, considerable. This allows you to assemble a series of MIDI grooves from the impressive included collection into a full performance. The Grooves button opens a further browser, so you can find, audition and then drag and drop the patterns that you want. While you can’t edit the MIDI patterns within the Song Builder, you do get all the usual tools for changing the lengths of patterns, copying, deleting and reordering, as well as export options for patterns or a full song. However, if you’re using ProDrummer as a plug-in, grooves can also be dragged and dropped onto a MIDI track in your DAW, where you can use all your usual MIDI editing tools on the patterns. The Drums button overlays labels on the drum graphics in the Player display to show you which specific drum was used for the currently loaded samples. For some kits, a small drop-down menu within these labels allows you to load alternative drum samples. This is very effective and can change the dynamics of a performance in some useful ways. The right end of the virtual mixer includes all the additional room mic channels that can be used to provide some natural ambience to your kit. Well, Spike Stent’s Vol 1 is built around drum pieces from Drum Workshop, Slingerland, Gretsch, Ludwig, Yamaha, Orange County and Zildjian, and was recorded in five different studios. The PDF manual provides a comprehensive list of which kit was recorded where, and the MIDI mapping used. This follows pretty standard practice for the main articulations such as snare, kick and hi-hat, but you also get the extra articulations — drum and cymbal edges, short and long snare rolls, and so on — mapped higher in the MIDI note range, so if you want to craft in all the subtleties that a real drummer produces in a performance, you have the tools to do it with. Well, very good indeed.Kit pieces are derived from Craviotto, Ludwig, Tama, Slingerland, Gretsch, Istanbul and Zildjian. Again, you can dial that in or out to taste using the mixing options. Kit 4 (like Kit 7 in Vol 1) is a hybrid kit, which combines drums from each of the other Kits. This sounds great and makes for a very good multi-purpose acoustic drum kit.Toggle it back on and the samples are reloaded. At the base of each channel strip, you can also assign any channel to a specific virtual output pair (10 are available) if you want to process certain channels separately within your host DAW’s mixer. There are two elements of ProDrummer’s mixing environment that deserve a special mention. First, as you scroll to the right end of the channel set, you can see various overhead and room mic channels. These vary from one kit to another depending upon what was used for the specific session, but it is here that you can add or subtract the sound of the room or the amount of mic bleed. As with BFD3 and SD2, this is a key element in making the kit come together, and ProDrummer certainly doesn’t disappoint in this respect: there is plenty of control available. This is complemented with a very respectable amp simulator so, if you want to let a drum or two roar through a virtual Marshall stack, then that’s perfectly possible. This is quite a beast and includes over 80 different distortion options, ranging from tape saturation through to very crunchy overdrive. If you like to get all NIN or EDM with your drum sounds, then this is just the tool for you. The other vital ingredient is the performance. Drummers (or drum programmers) can obviously cater for their own needs here but, for everyone else, EastWest have included a library of over 14,000 MIDI drum grooves covering a wide range of musical styles. As described above, the Groove Browser allows you to track down what you need and includes genre, sub-genre, style and type filters. Musically, the ground covers everything from jazz through to metal, with plenty of stops along the way. I’m a big fan of the way Toontrack allow you to extend SD2 by offering inexpensive add-on MIDI groove packs, and it will be interesting to see if EastWest also decide to go down that route. However, the core MIDI content supplied with ProDrummer is a substantial starting point for any new user, and is of a consistently high standard. Despite that, the Play front end makes it almost unbelievably easy to produce a polished drum track. Pick a kit preset, drop some suitable MIDI grooves into the Song Builder, tweak a few faders in the Mixer and, with ProDrummer, you could have a complete drum track in less time than it takes to set up a snare mic. Things only really get more technical than this if you choose to delve into the excellent processing options offered within the FX section of the Mixer. These are pretty deep (a good thing) but that also means a bit of a learning curve. In terms of a comparison with some of the obvious competition, ProDrummer’s individual volumes are in a similar price bracket to the likes of BFD3 and Superior Drummer. I’ve used both of these products on a regular basis, and ProDrummer is somewhat different in terms of the approach adopted (for example, in the use of name producers and drummers and the sound of specific recording spaces) but is certainly in the same lofty bracket in terms of results.
