When it comes to looks, the Olympus AF-1 can be easily distinguished as one of those 1980s-era point-and-shoots: the black fit and finish are slick, the boxy shape and its rounded corners, and its lens and other components are grouped together. Lastly, the AF-1 can produce clean and crisp images with the right lighting conditions. Its 35 mm f/2.8 aperture Zuiko lens is sharp and wide enough to cover landscapes and candid shots. Colors are vivid and details are also pronounced. As with any camera and lens, proper handling and practice can reveal the AF-1’s strengths in this department.

@ivaylo Yeah I got it after a few more shots. Quite a strange little shutter technique but all good. Thanks for reply, much appreciated.

I have a question and forgive me for sounding like a total amateur. Does the auto focus beep or flash at all? Mine doesn't seem to do anything and it doesn't feel like the auto focus is doing much. Any info would be greatly received.

With our new improved Stubby gas lens kit, you can now use furick clear cups like the clear 8 pro, the jazzy 10, fupa12, and so on as well as ceramic versions of those cups without needing to purchase the furick adapter kit. ( this change alone saves you $24.99)

#4 cup - 10 cfh#5 cup - 10-15 cfh#6 cup - 12-18 cfh#7 cup - 14-21 cfh#8 cup - 16-24-cfhOK now that we have good idea of flow rates needed, lets talk about what each size cup is good for.Why use a #4 cup?* save gas on flash tacks  * thin aluminum butt welds where full penetration is desired.* Fillet welds on light gauge aluminumm* When you need to conserve argon I typically use an 8 for general tig welding of steels and stainless steels but sometimes the job doesn’t need that much shielding and maybe your low on argon.I remember a few times when I was welding on a Saturday and needed to deliver a job to a customer on Monday morning.  Looked over and noticed I was running pretty low on argon and had let my spares get empty too.Since the parts were carbon steel and were going to be black oxide treated anyway, the welds didn’t really need to be all shiny.Stepping down to a #4 cup with only about 8cfh got the job finished without running out of argon.Why use a 5 or 6 cup?…I like both a 5 and a 6 gas lens for aluminum.

Launched in 1986 as the successor to the AFL, the Olympus AF-1 was a product of intensive market research and design. It was the world’s first weather-proof camera that users could shoot without worrying about easy breakage and compromised performance. The AF-1 was also simple to use. Being a point-and-shoot camera, it can be easily taken out for quick shooting when needed — all thanks to its reliable autofocus system. Not to mention it was light and affordable: two good characteristics that any casual photographer can appreciate.

But we need to have a little fudge factor so lets say 2-3 cfh times cup size. …remember that flow meters are not all accurately calibrated.different situations call for different flow rates.

I think if so many really good tig welders like Roy Crumrine and Brad Goodman swear by the #5 standard collet body cup, then it stands to reason a #5 gas lens will also perform in a similar way except a longer stickup can be used.I really like to use the #6 gas lens for all around aluminum welding on various joints.  Gives a bit more gas coverage for edge build up welds, filling holes, and outside corner joints and makes it a bit easier to keep the tip of the rod shielded with argon #7 and #8 cups are a good all around size for most metals.  #8 pro clear is my go too cup when I am filming because it really helps you and me both see what is going on better when I film arc shots. ( a side benefit for me is that I can see where I am going better with a clear cup).

The AF-1’s main appeal was its durability. It could withstand rain and wet shooting conditions with its proper sealing and unique clamshell design, hence the nickname Nuretemo-Pikaso or wet flash in Japanese. The AF-1 is simply one of those cameras that can churn out images regardless of the shooting conditions you’re in. Design-wise, the AF-1 had a unique focusing system — the user needed to press and hold the ‘focus lock’ button with the left thumb, aim at the subject with the central box, press the shutter release button, then finally release the ‘focus look’ button to activate the shutter. It’s a quirky way to click the shutter but any shooter can memorize the process with enough practice.
