Title: Phase Back capture count
Post by: mtomalty on November 08, 2006, 05:50:25 pm

Is there a way for a user to access the number of captures a Phase back (P25)
has performed?

I'm looking at an 18 month old P25 for Contax and would like an accurate accounting
before making an offer.

Thanks,
Mark

Yes,

Just select info from the menu. It will say the exact count, the firmware version etc. Mine is barely run in at 50,000 frames. There are no moving parts so I assume a couple of million exposures is easy in a P25 lifespan.
