On my first roll I tried out the aperture priority mode and shot the whole roll with that, using a 50MM lens. Five of the 36 images were way overexposed, so much so that the contact sheet showed no image at all. Looking at the negatives with a loupe, I can faintly see something, but the overexposure is so great that the frame is useless. All the rest of the frames seem correctly exposed. >> - --never pay attention to the first roll of film you shoot in any camera. don't care what camera you use, who you are, what your training is -- the first roll of film in any camera is going to look lousy. Read the instruction book again, shoot another roll, let us know what happens. ctrentelman ogden utah
