Oh woops, posted this in the wrong forum. Sorry!
Hey all! Finally put the change down for this lovable piece of hardware, and I had a few beginner's questions:
1) The camera's been used ~27 hours, and I'm uncertain as to whether it was all with MQ tapes or not. Will this affect it much?
2) On the subject of the MQ tapes, does it matter if I reuse them (rewind and tape over them move than once)? I know picture quality won't be great, but just for practice/noncritical purposes, will this degrade the heads any?
3) Which lens filters are necessary for me to buy? I have none at the moment, and I know I should probably nab the UV one. I plan to be shooting in pretty much all indoor/outdoor conditions.
That's it! Any other tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
