>>3905751>I'd use a lightmeter app on your phone, or another camera (I suppose you don't have an actual lightmeter) and compare the settings the lightmeter gives you with the settings the camera gives you. You could also shoot a roll and see what happens but I think it's better to compare.I do have the paid version of "myLighterMeter" is that any good? It's just kind of a bother having to run around with my phone all the time. The whole point of film, for me, at least, is that I can stay in the moment with the subject at all times.
>I'd use a wet sensor cleaner for the focusing screen/pentaprism, or a q-tip, or even some folded lens lens paper alongside the blower. Always be super gentle and accept that you'll never clean it 100% at home.I don't know what those things are but google is my friend, right? Lol.
>Let it be, as long as it doesn't affect the images you'll be fine.That's good to know, but can I still ask what it is? How the fuck does dust get in there? What can I do to avoid more dust getting in there? Etc.
>Don't know much about photomics... Is that some Nikon thing?It's the DP-1 Photomic, it's the viewfinder and lightmeter for Nikon F2 (pic related)
>mirror Looks like more than a few scratches to me in picture I sent first, lol. I don't even know how one gets scratches inside a camera like that.
>Ehh, I hope you're prepared to make mistakes when doing things yourself...AND
>>3905756>I wouldn't do that being new to this stuff. Gotta lurk for manuals, exploded views etc. When lot's of shit is mechanical it requires finesse. When it's coupled with old circuitry it requires even more of it.I mean, it wasn't that "complex" I literally just took the DP-1 as well as the focusing glass, and cleaned it with a super micro cloth thingy, like a pen thingy not any hairs or brushes and then blew some air with a "Giotto" air blow thingy inside the house while holding the house upside down. I didn't go "INTO" the camera.
