thanks thats a big help. I haven't used the cam yet, but the switch on the side of the body for the 85 filter is set in position for daylight (with sun symbol showing) however, i am unable to switch it over fully to the tungsten setting, it moves halfway before sticking with no obvious shift in terms of filtering that i can see. Do i need to have a certain cartridge loaded in order to be able to do this. The only cartridges i have loaded have been unable to help me switch it, even though they were Tungsten balanced. Any ideas/suggestions would be great. thankyou

I have tried to decipher what information I can find on the internet regarding this issue, but am still struggling with it. I have a 514 XL-S camera, and want to start shooting neg. stock, particularly the 500T as my project is in a low-light setting. However, I'm not sure how to use the stock correctly with my camera. I do know that the 500 rating is beyond what the camera is set to read but does this really matter if I control the exposure settings? Also, the filter switch on the camera appears to be stuck on the daylight setting, and won't switch over. This will be detrimental to indoor shooting i suppose? Hope somebody can clear up this issue for me. I know its probably been talked about to death. cheers Leighton
