I really like my old Olympus C-350 Zoom. It's one of the first consumer grade point and shoot cameras from the early 2000's and still, the the output under decent light conditions isn't any worse than from an entry level smartphone today. Yes, you can tell from the image, that it was taken with an old camera, because the image has some characteristics, which have been honed over time.
I love old cameras films and digital, in digital, I still use Olympus E3, E510, Ricoh RR120, Sony Mavica FD83, Olympus µstylus, HP photosmart 715, Pentax K200D, Leica D-Lux 4, Fujifilm S304, Canon 5D and a Pentax EI-2000. Still have other Digicams but all are just dead or media/batteries just don't exist anymore, the oldest digital camera I have is a Casio QV-10 but dead for a long time. Of course I have new stuffs such as Panasonic GH9II, Olympus OMD1III but I love use old camera, with their limitations, old CCD ones are often amazing, especially Kodak and Fuji SuperCCD.
Digicams are my thing. A few tips. Dont overpay for a Leica D-Lux like the one here. Panasonic actually makes it and It's the exact same camera as the Panasonic Lumix LX3 which can be had for half the price. I have the LX2, 3 and 5. Also, do your homework on the many different models. Narrow it down to a couple brands and then look at the specs for each camera. Dont assume that every Canon Powershot SD is the same, they are not. Look for the models with the larger sensors and better lenses, like the SD500 or 550. Dont just get the model some hipster RUclipsr made a video about and over-pay for an inferior camera. Have fun.
nice video. 👌 A friend gave me the other day two old super ccd point and shoots. Lumix TZ5 and Fuji FinePix F20. Anyway the two I can already not recommend. lol Super CCD doesn't even come close to looking like film. So I would suggest like you if you want such a camera it should already make better pictures than a smartphone. A GR is actually a much better choice.
Fun video! I used to own the Lumix equivalent of the D-Lux 4. There is no difference between the two, apart from the fact that you are paying $$$ more for a red Leica logo! The Lumix (LX3?) was a lot of fun, and I got some fantastic snaps with it. But talking of Ricoh, you don't have to have a GR3 as the now ancient GRD4 is almost as brilliant (no, wrong, the GRD4 is actually better, because it is far cheaper and grittier, and because of the tiny sensor, everything is in focus). I now prefer using my GRD4 to my Olympus E-M1 because it is so small and fun to use. It goes everywhere with me.
Ik still got an LX-2 and LX-3 but didn’t notice the old camera revival until I bought a 7 year old Fujifilm X-Pro2 6 months ago, fantastic camera! But… I also just purchased spare batteries for my Panasonics 😅
because film got too expensive so people are moving from the trendy film cameras and over to old digital cameras and follow the "trend" HAHA XD though i personally love the idea of the flash film snap shot camera - from those disposable cameras - and if there's a digital camera that's like that (fix focus, f8, zone focusing only with flash) could be rather fun - takes a few more steps to do it manually or its too easy to just switch back to auto focus unless I adapt a manual focus lens on my fuji and then shoot zone focus mode.
Hi Niels, nice video. I actually just bought a well loved D Lux 4 for 50 euro. The case is worn a bit and one of the strap-thingies has corroded a bit which I'll try to f strengthen again with two-component adhesive. It definitely needs a new battery as well. Since it definitely is an older model, and many accessories are out of stock, do you recommend some generic accessories for this camera? Straps, cases,...anything really. Thanks a lot in advance! Jerry
That's great! 50 bucks is a nice price, too! I'd buy a third party strap, either a wrist-strap or a neck strap. The D-Lux comes with a lens cap, I would only use it when you put it in your bag, not while shooting. And like you said, some extra batteries and then you are good to go mate!
"Photos that are film-like..." I don't think so. There is a huge gap between this camera and the film camera when it comes to the look of the photos. This has nothing to do with the film and everyone who photographed the film knows it. It's just a digital camera with a tiny sensor and a red mark that some people like to pay for, that's all. Nothing more.

Amazing editing once again, Neils!!!
I had one years back i got it used ...not long ago i saw some of the photos taken with and they looked soooooo good, i have to get the version 7 used

I agree, it's nothing like film. However, shooting with a camera that gives you that 90's aesthetic, can be fun! 😅
Awesome video mate thank you! I just bought a Fuji x70 it has a apc censor what I really like (not that cheap) but I love it!
Groetjes uit Groningen 😊
Thanks friend! Never used a x70, is it nice? Groetjes terug!
Great one! I had a d-lux 5 one day, great camera!
Thanks friend! Awesome camera!
W❤️W! That’s Incredibly Awesome! Cheers!🥂❤️✨
Thanks!

the Leica version has different software giving a Leica profile which is superior
Ik heb sinds een halfjaar een Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1, perfect voor straatfotografie. Wil de komende tijd m'n uitrusting uitbreiden met een 50mm.
Heel nice! Dat is een mooie camera 😃
@@NielsdeKemp, zeker. Leica heeft voor dit model ook prachtige objectieven.

Hoi Niels. Curious waar jij zo goedkoop deze camera kocht want even googelen en vond enkel de tas voor de d-lux 4 voor deze prijs. Groet, Alain
Marktplaats! (De screenshot van de advertentie laat ik zien in de video)
Very nice camera I have it in my collection. 😊
😎🙏
@@NielsdeKemp by the way It uses a Ricoh battery 🤓
@snappiness is such a geek but lots of fun
Just ordered a D-Lux 5

Photo’s with a certain aesthetic that people like, the experience of using a camera that is slower and more tactile than current camera’s. Film-like.
@@NielsdeKemp Whaaat ???!!! :)))
@@jarosawzon4272lol, these RUclipsrs, man.
No shit Sherlock that’s why he said “Film like”
Depends on the sensor. Don't be a thug
Hey what setting are you using? Thanks x
Zo mee eens, ik heb de keuze gemaakt om weer een dslr op te pakken ipv systeemcamera’s.
Tof! Welk type?
this is the lumix LX5 i have one
Where the hell did you find a 200 pound leica?
Hey could you let me know how the camera is ?
It’s doing great!
I don't know you find it for $195
Panasonic lx3 is pretty much the same camera and cheaper
This camera is literally 6 grand now lmaooooo
Not anymore
Promo SM 😆
Just use your phone …
That’s like saying ‘just catch a train’, to someone who loves to ride his bike 😅🤣
@@NielsdeKemp Good comparison! Enjoy what you are doing ❤️
@@doctorcatnip2551 thanks my friend ❤️
Sir,Please gift me a camera.I live in Bangladesh.please sir🙏🥺
My friend all your photos are so not inspiring and terrible
