    TC-1 is the epitome of compact camera. Minolta fitted super sharp G rokkor to tiny body and then they made that same lens on Leica M mount, it was so good. If you think this camera is expensive, search for that lens on Leica mount and see it's price alone.

    Maaaaan, do I miss my TC-1. I had two actually, after one died on me I had to get a second one, which sadly died after a year or so. With the current prices I don't want to invest into another one to shoot with it for a year (the first one hold up for about two years or so and I've put 119 rolls through both of them combine in the span of 3 years). The 28mm is the loveliest 28 I've ever used with the slight pincushion distortion (as opposed to barrel that is most common). The capabilities, manual focusing, spot metering, iso range, exposure compensation, focus distance in viewfinder, AF beam in low light, lit display, lens extentension to it's focus position upon halfpress, long exposure capabalities, 2/10 sec timer, round aperture... and of course the size... This is a pinnacle of analog camera engineering. Like a supernova explosion a burst of energy at the end of the life of a star, the foam at the very crest of the film era before the the wave breaking...

    Thank you for making a video about my favourite camera! It's a beautiful camera with a wonderful lens. The perfectly round apeture is supposed to make the bokeh even better than the mountable version of the lens. The only problem is the camera is so small that its very easy to take finger shots. I won't be parting with mine.

    Make sure to get a backup camera because point-and-shoots are not very repairable! There are lots of other ones with 28mm or slightly longer lenses that cost less than $300 (sometimes much less). I wouldn't pay much attention to how nice they are because they're all fun.

    Shot one of these about 10 years ago was one of my favs much more so than the Ricoh GR1s or the Contax T2 &T3s, only the Konica Hexar came close in terms of experience & pictures.
    Wouldn't buy one now though even if it was for half the price they sell for now, once these old cams develop an issue it's over given there is no way of fixing or repurposing them without huge expense.

    Since this is an aperture priority camera, do you ever have any issues with the shutter speed not being fast enough? If you were shooting a "fast moving" scene, would you just adjust the aperture to f8 or f16?

    Why is everyone so obsessed with point and shoot cameras? Leica M’s are pretty small and you don’t have to turn them on or worry about batteries dying, or motors dying etc. A user condition one is cheaper than most of these ridiculously priced point and shoot cameras.

    • @thegreaterconundrum
      @thegreaterconundrum 4 года назад +1

      For the exact same reason these sold so well when they were on the market a few decades ago. They fulfill a desire for some people that a interchangeable lens camera doesn't. Or at least people believe it does. The benefits of portability and simplicity are that point and shoots have close to no impact on living in the moment. They were marketed as being for casual events, hanging out with friends, taking quick travel snapshots.
      I do agree, though, that it seems silly to use point and shoots in a situation where you don't need to be in the moment. If you're just taking pictures of light-dappled fire hydrants and blades of grass then it makes far more sense to just buy an SLR or a rangefinder, and I think that part of point and shoot culture is kinda goofy.
