Thank you for this video. As with comment below - I have just bought one. (It's in the post to me!) You say that the the f stops are really just used with flash guns. So the camera will decide on the right f stop using its sensor?

The Nikor lenses deliver superb quality... You are better off using the best quality lenses available for it if you can. And the camera body is affordable if the best lenses available are expensive a 50ml suits me fine... And isn't expensive. 5:58

I believe it’s meant for people who are always out and about who don’t want to care abt settings It’s a focus free lens and called “trip” very fun camera to use for landscapes and partying

Love the winder lever... Wish Pentax made that a signature trait of theirs for later models. No other camera really matched that lever design afterward.

Thanks for this! PS my leningrad 4 has an adjustment screw at the back which can move a couple of stops...

Very nice channel, I hope the algorithm helps you with it

Greetings from Uruguay, excellent video.

Why it was always blurred when I took took a picture outdoor😢😢

Is it worth it to buy 2nd hand if its just for casual use?

Shhhh. Don't tell everyone!!! 🤫 This is the current hot secret in film photography. These F80's (and F100's in particular) are the best value film cameras you can buy at the minute. With the advent of mirrorless digital cameras, at some point, the hipsters are going to finally figure it out, but for the moment we can still pick up high end film SLR cameras for peanuts! 🥳

I still own this camera, bought in the 90's. Fantastic camera, used professionally and just for fun. I can highly recommend.

This was my first 35mm camera in 1979. I learned all my basic skills of photography using this beauty. I still have it, and with the same lens as this. It works perfectly. Inexpensive fun!!!

My first 24X36, Souvenirs souvenirs !

I have the Fuji STX-2 and I think it is a great camera and I like your review here of the STX-1. It isn't K-Mount though - it is a proprietary "X-Fujinon" mount and extra lenses are rarer than hens teeth unfortunately. Keith

A great find my friend. A wonderful camera with expert engineering.

Just got some B&W film for my Olympus Trip. Will be trying out some shots in the New Year :)

I'm shot that you didn't follow through with actually loading film. But I did leave a thumbs up. Thank you.

Does it need a battery to operate

I want to get into photography but I don't have any experience or information. Should I buy this camera? I'm not sure if I should buy a SLR camera or not.

got a used 300s for under 150eu and not even 10k shuttercount with the usb rubber cap ripped off. now i have the 200 the 300s and the 700. phantastic image quality. the prices for these secondhand are insanely low now. just one thing thats nowadays negative, the weight. with an old 80-200 these cams are really damn heavy

how to use timer?

Try going to M90 and the camera should return to normal. Then change the battery,

Try googling "nikon fg mirror stuck up" several fixes come up. try turning dial to "M90"

Good review. Very thorough.

I hope you kept it. They're wonderful cameras and this one seems in fantastic condition. It's quite rare that the flash port covers are still connected - if they're there at all. The only real flaw with the MX is that the shutter speed dial is too stiff to really use with your index finger while your eye is at the finder. You learn to pinch with the thumb and forefinger while still keeping your eye to the finder. But it never ceases to be a bit awkward tbh (source: I've used one since 1994). Edit: and I should mention that it may have the biggest, highest magnification viewfinder on any SLR ever.

I was just given this camera (without the data back or the "panoramic" thing, but same name printed on the body) along with three zoom lenses for free. And two (certainly thoroughly expired) rolls of print film. I’ll definitely get new batteries and shoot a roll to see if it works alright. Aaaah... the technology of yesteryear. As someone born in 1990, this kind of tech has a special meaning to me because on one hand, the late 90s were SO long ago and I was a little kid, but on the other hand... some pretty revolutionary technology was underway. I witnessed the transition into the digital age WHILE growing up. Most of the tech from back then (much of which doesn’t work anymore anyway) isn’t something I’d actually use, but this camera may find some use for me. Thanks for talking me through this camera, and also some Minolta history! =)

A very reliable camera Even some prestige cameras have quirks There don't seem any with this A stuck shutter if it's been impacted is easy to rectify A very rugged simple camera for the amateur photographer

A very young Phil Daniels !! Great camera too

The Japanese don't like the number 4 they think it brings bad luck.

Good grief,the pics are amazing !

Sturdier build than majority of 35mm analog cameras.

Digital took over... But that's really very very good and cheap camera. F65 is even cheaper and still very good.

F 501 not reccomended as earlier A/F ( nikon) cameras were a bit of a disaster But the F301 is great!

I have the same camera, but instead of a Tessar, it has a Pentacon Auto f 1.8 50 mm lens. To my mind this is a perfect beginner camera for film photography. The other cool feature of Praktica L series cameras like the MTL 5 B is the PL (Pentacon Loading) system for easier loading of film.

Hi, I have this camera, I have film for it and batteries, but it is not working. the green light is off. maybe there are some tips, what else can be done with it?

The D300s will only fire at 7 frames a second in jpeg, in raw it's about 2.5 frames a second

Thanks.

I couldn't spot the link ?

posted a year ago, have you experienced any issues with it? - i'm thinking about getting one to put in the local fields around me

Bonjour. Comment utiliser le télémètre sur cet appareil photo ?. Merci d'avance. Florin

Looks very nice. Thanks for the review.

Do i need to set the aperture when taking pictures without flash?

I love this camera.

Sadly the glass has fallen in so will stop the needle giving a true reading. My Master 5 has same problem it failed in the early 70's when I worked in electronics factory and one of they guys in the mold shop got it open for me and I glued it back but that has bow failed again, so now I use Euro Master, still very good.

Just found my this exact camera that my mum used to use in the 90's. I love film pictures, so i'm pretty stoked that my mum and i found it. i've just bought some film and a new battery for it. would you recommend just the basic 'program' settings for it? i'm not too experienced on all the different settings to use haha but so glad i found this video to give me some insight on all the different mechanics!

Can you put a timestamp on the photos?

just got one of these, do u happen to know if the lens is plastic or glass?

wondering if still possible to get replacement for battrery and film for this. I bought one biaccident trying to buy just the lens a while back.

I guess its for the left eye if you absolutely have to have the entire thing in front of your face? My mom has one of these, its rather comfortable to just hold the viewfinder up to your right eye...

ty for this !!
