If they are not, manually cock the shutter on the lens or body.Ī battery check button is located by the shutter knob along with a cable release socket. Observe that the cocking pin colour is green on both the lens and body before attaching or removing the lens. The light will go out when the shutter fire has completed. A red LED will illuminate in the viewfinder during shutter fire. The lens cannot be removed or attached without cocking the shutter. The shutter cannot be cocked without film, but use of multi-exposure mode will enable you to cock it and test fire the shutter. Unlike the older Bronica models, when the film back is detached from the body the dark slide can still be removed. The shutter cannot be released with the dark slide inserted. The camera will release the back when the dark slide is inserted and release button pressed. The film back adopted some of the dark slide features of previous models. The shutter release button can be locked with a twist of the collar to prevent mistaken exposures. The main film crank can be removed to attach a winder or speed grip. The film back also contains a crank, useful for setting the film start index. Since the body and back need to be synchronized, make sure to wind the film crank completely before attaching the back.

The backs contain a ISO speed dial setting that is coupled to metered finders. Since it's a leaf shutter based camera system, flash sync is available at all speeds.Īn interchangeable back system was incorporated that has the ability to use 120 or 220 (12 / 24 ) exposure film backs. The sync connector is located on the front of the camera by the lens mount.

plus T with the focusing helicode built- in to each lens. The lens system has a Seiko manufactured electronic shutter with speed of 8 sec.

They are not compatible with the older series of focal plane shutter cameras. Similar to the 6x4.5 based ETR series that came before it, the SQ uses a leaf shutter based lens design. My understanding is that the SQ-A will not fire unless the film back is on the camera, and there is film loaded in the back.Camera Wiki:The Bronica SQ is a 6圆 medium format SLR camera The SQ is often said to mean square. How were you able to fire the shutter without the film back loaded and mounted on the camera? Is having the lens sent in to be repaired worth it being an "S" lens, or would purchasing a lens be the apropos route?
Cleaned all contacts with 100% acetone and a 100% cotton q-tip.I have done the following to diagnose the problem point: When I press the shutter release button, the shutter either gets stuck open or immediately closes (FYI the red light indicating exposure if finished will just stay on continuously when the shutter is stuck open). However, the 150mm gets its shutter stuck it seems. The 80mm works perfectly in all modes (A/T) and all shutter speeds. I picked up the body, prism viewfinder, two film backs (120/220) and two lenses (PS 80mm 2.8 and an S 150mm 3.5). I recently purchased a Zenza Bronica SQ-a as a "test the waters" set-up to decided if I wanted to add MF to my photography world. I am not new to photography, or film, but am new to the MF world and camera bodies.
