Obviously you need to shoot manually with this setup.
Can you post your settings that you are not happy with in terms of picture quality (PQ) for future reference.

Thanks guys!
I going to a cruise in tomorrow and will take a few shots with it and show you what I'm finding & note the settings.
True, by the time you can get through the checkout line at the store where you purchase your brand new camera, that same camera company is in the process of releasing the next new version of that camera!

I got the camera out of a gift book from where I work for my 25 year of employment. I was the first employee hired. It will be 28 years this Thursday!
I had a 28mm, a 50mm & a 70 -210mm FD lens from my old AE1
Went to the Harper cruise in St. Clair Shores and tried the 210mm lens. It wasn't a very good time to take pictures. It was overcast and sprinkling at times.
I had the camera set at F/16 and the zoom at infinity for most of the pictures. Not very sharp pictures. Everything looks great in the viewfinder. Maybe I should just stick with the original lens!
FYI, The yellow 69 Super Bee is the guy who won the Hellcat engine, trans and harness at the Roadkill knights drags at the Silverdome.
Hello Joe,
Please forgive my lousy eyesight for missing various details on this car, but Is this a 1967 RO23 Belvedere? If not, I still like it!
