VW-C94M-HFBD

Works nice in Minolta camera srt sc II

a useful item to use with old cameras that need old batteries that is hard to find nowadays. Works perfectly with easy to find batteries available nowadays and it has 2 pieces included so can be used for 2 cameras and a good value purchase.

I got this because like a lot of people I have a Minolta SRT camera. I was getting tired of how quickly the weincells die once you open them and how pricy they are. So I got this thing so I could use LR44 batteries in my camera (And recalibrated the meter). So far so good! A perfect fit for both the battery and the battery compartment.

These work just fine adapting a battery to fit into your older camera, but I've since found that you can, in fact, use a modern battery that fits without these adapters even if the voltage is too high. All you have to do is shoot at a lower ISO to compensate for the meter reading too high. Example: shoot a roll of ISO 400 film at 200, but have it developed at 400, and they turn out just fine.

It works fine. Good quality products. If need an adapter then this is a good one.

Does the job with some tweaking. Modern day batteries sink a bit too deep in this adapter, but it certainly keep them from sloshing around.

My old Minolta Hi-Matic E 35mm camera used mercury batteries back when it was new. Obviously, these are no longer available. There are all sorts of hacks to use modern batteries, most involving folded aluminum foil. These battery adaptors are an inexpensive and much better solution. They fit perfectly in the camera. I use Wein Air Cell batteries in them for my camera.

These adapters are very well made and they have a plus sign on the front to facilitate correct battery placement.

Las baterías que tienen este tipo de forma física (les llaman de honguito) son cada vez más difíciles de comprar. Lo cual te puede causar un dolor de cabeza si eres coleccionista de cámaras vintage y quieres que estas funcionen. Con estos adaptadores puedes utilizar baterías LR44 que son muy comunes en el mercado y utilizarlas en esas cámaras. Yo tengo dos cámaras que precisamente utilizan esas baterías y con estos adaptadores las he regresado a su vida útil. Obviamente el voltaje de las baterías normales es más alto que las originales (1.5 vs 1.3) pero esto no afecta la cámara. Habrá algunas que por lo mismo tiendan a sobre exponer, pero por lo que he visto, es máximo un paso. cosa que puedes corregir después una vez que hayas digitalizado tu negativo.

¡Excelente adaptador, me encantó!, me ayudó a volver utilizar mi confiable exposimetro Gossen Lunasix 3 que tenía años guardado por no haber ya pilas PX13. También pude usar el exposímetro de mi Nikon Ftb. Lo recomiendo ampliamente si tienes equipos que usaban ese tipo de pilas.

El material no es cobre, es latón.
