Pro-tip to remove the tackiness from grips and other degraded rubber/plastic; use an old toothbrush and hand sanitiser. Most of us have these laying around. Scrub the hand sanitiser onto the grip with the toothbrush, wipe it away with a microfibre cloth or old rag. And repeat that a few times. Eventually it'll be like-new again.
High concentration rubbing alcohol works in 90% cases for me but I would definitely try this plastic restorer. Tooth brush is 100% a must.
Love your content 😌, keep up the good stuff
Thanks, really appreciate it!
I hv a d500 thats seldom used now. Loving the A7iv so far .
Also hv an xt2 that I thought was boken but it came alive again 😊
Very cool! I really enjoy shooting with my A7R III and video performance is excellent. Nice to hear your X-T2 is back from the grave!
What? 32 minutes went already? I keep watching these videos and I don’t really know why. I’m interested in new cameras and new tech but you just manage to make your videos so interesting and entertaining that I can’t help it!
That's very kind of you, thanks so much for watching, and for commenting!
i mainly use Olympus and Fuji mirrorless, but also have Sony A7R, Canon 5D Classic, Pentax K5 & K3 II, Some Olympus FT Cams, Fuji S5 Pro for Nikon F and some stuff of almost all vintage 35mm SLR Systems
Was a Pentax P30T/ Nikon 801s, and F4 in the film era, switched to Canon in the digital era.
Would love to see the battery tray off to the side of the table shown one day - must be an epic collection!
Those are some classic 35mm cameras! Maybe in the next videos I will show the battery operation, there's a LOT! :)
I have all sorts of cameras. Main three: Pixii+ (most used), Pentax Q10, and Sony A7s. Also many film cameras but I'm too lazy to develop film these days hahah. Thanks for the video! Love your insights and knowledge!
Wow, nice! I hadn't actually heard of Pixii, looks really cool, what mount type is it? Thanks for watchin!
@@pricklypearcamera It's an M mount, but I use LTM lenses on it with a converter
@@pricklypearcamera it's an M mount but I use converted LTM lenses :-). Cool for us rangefinder lovers who want modern sensor (great high ISO) but don't want to spend $9k on an M11 (only $3k for the Pixii... still a ridiculous sum of money for a camera...) but i love it!!
I found a Rebel K2 with a 29-90 lens in mint condition at a flea market for $10!
The K2 shares an acrylic display box eith my Rebel X, while the 28-90 spends most of it's time on my XTi.😁
Nice, that's a great deal!
Hard to imagine it is worth film testing any of those, just not enough value there. Fun watch, thanks.
Panny shooter here with occasional Canon sesh's with my 77d. Love trying out new cameras though it's just fun. Another great vid. I love how you are sharing more of your photography in these videos
Cool! I've used the 77D a bit too over the years, fun to shoot with! Appreciate the feedback!
Good haul.
I'm relatively new to shooting, but I've been using Canon, Panasonic, Fujifilm (all bridge or point and shoot) and I've got a "yet to use" Minolta.
Very nice!
I have been a little mixed on shooting with cameras. First I shot with Nikon (a crappy L120) then a Sony DSC-H20, then to a Canon PowerShot SD550, then to a Sony NEX-5N, then to a Olympus C-60Z, and now a Nikon D100 and Canon PowerShot SD10. I use the D100 with an 18-55mm F3.5-F5.6 ED SWM GII and a 70-210mm F4-F5.6 AF Nikkor (non-D). Both lenses are very sharp but the 70-210mm produces colors that seem to really pop. It's a very good lens.
I also have an early AF Nikkor 50mm F1.8 on the way, also a non-D or G version.
My first SLR was a Pentax K-1000 which I still have, followed by an ME Super. I found a great deal on the very first Rebel Canon and traded the ME Super for it in 1991. I have been mostly Canon ever since, however, if it has a lens I am into it. I find it fun to shoot any camera.😁
i got a EOS 500n, and i just love how ordinairy it looks. makes it a rather steatlhy film camera.
4:18 Me personally, I have a mixed bunch of cameras, but I got super lucky and inherited a lot of my gear. I got a Minolta X-500 from my uncle, a Canon Kiss X3 (Rebel T1i) and Powershot S3 IS from my mum, and I bought myself a Pentax MX (which is still my favourite camera lol). Aside from that I have a bunch of other random cameras but those are the main ones.
Nice! That's a great mix of cameras, and cool that some have been passed down too!
Used to use Zenit for film, used a few brands of dig point and shoot, moved to Fuji for bridge cameras, then Canon for DSLR, but have a couple of Panasonic micro 4/3rds, the GF7, which is great with the kit lens for street photography, must dig it out again.
Very cool! I haven't shot with the GF series for a few years now, but really loved shooting with a little 20mm pancake Panasonic. Good stuff!
It's probably worth buying a single roll of film to use as a dummy roll just to be able to ensure all the electronics are working such as auto rewind, film advance etc.
Yes, many film cameras have different bahavior with or without film. Although film testing is too expensive for shutter speed check, it's at least worthy to verify intended behavior for film advance and camera operation.
Well, rolls of film go for $15-20 a roll nowadays so it wouldn't be practical since he won't make much for film cameras anyway unless they are higher end ones.
For not just Nikon but did get a good deal on a Zenit Photo sniper kit not that long ago. Waiting on it to come in the mail. Am looking forward to trying it out at some parks in the area I live in.
Well that sounds fun, hope you have a good time shooting with it!
I have Canon cameras. The SL2, eos-m and m6 mark II. My Lenses are : Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8, EF 50mm f/1.8, Tamron EF 24-70mm f/2.8, Canon EF 75-300 f/4-5.6, TTArtisan 35mm f/1.4 manual focus and Kamlan 50mm f/1.1 manual focus. I have a Viltrox EF/EF-S to EF-M adapter and a Viltrox EF to EF-M speedbooster. I also have a 2x teleconverter. Now that I am 60, I am not upgrading to any new Canon R series cameras. I got some of my stuff from MPB and eBay.
Just a great setup there #tonykeltsflorida Should last many years!
Another mixed bag, very nice. Had my share of film camera's but am now firmly stuck in the digital age.
I personally took a gamble in the thrift store (same one as the TZ70) and scored an excellent condition Canon SX720HS in RED this time (€9,50 not tested no waranty).
Fully working, not a scratch!
Had to revive the battery because it played dead: the circuit in the battery will stop taking a charge when the cell is below a certain value.
With some playing around with Li-ion charges it jumped back to life and the battery seems to work perfectly now
Wow-you've gotten some incredible deals on cameras! That SX720 is a great pickup!
I generally shoot Panasonic & Olympus, but have used my fair share of canon & Nikon DSLRs. My favorite MFT cameras to use so far have been the OM-D E-M5-ii and Panasonic g6 respectively. I also own a Pentax Q10 and panny FZ20 that I ADORE. Love your channel!!!
Awesome!! I am getting an FZ20 in the next couple of days, excited to try it out again! Appreciate you watching
@@pricklypearcamera Oh sweet, I’m sure you will enjoy it! The menus / viewfinder are definitely from another era, but the simplicity of it all is so fun to shoot with! And the CCD jpegs are awesome. Thank you for your reply :-)
That OM-D E-M5ii is the reason I want to invest in MFT lenses. I have several Nikon and Canon bodies, but that dang Olympus is just so fun to use.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS same here! I got the classic 20mm 1.7 and 45mm 1.8 combo and could not be happier. The only things I’m still curious to try are a super telephoto and a 2.8 zoom!
I've owned 2 Nikon D300 cameras. They are built like a tank and take wonderful pictures. I've had a D300S as well - video on top of all the goodness 🙂
Thanks for sharing, tis' indeed a good camera, I've seen probably less than a dozen D300s's, was it similar in all ways except for video?
as far as ( explored it yes. same 12MP sensor I think@@pricklypearcamera
I exclusively shoot Canon, Nikon, Fuji, Lumix, etc.
nice deal
I have a bunch of different cameras, canon for digital (which I rarely use) and film because they use the same lenses and another bunch of film cameras with K mount and M42. Pentax, Praktica, chinon, Minolta... Whatever gets into my hands and I end up liking to use it.
I like your approach!
Always fun to watch and learn! I use a Canon R5 & a Fuji XT4, and a variety of film cameras (Pentax, Olympus, Yashica T3 and a bunch of pinhole cameras). I love them all. Do you check the light seals and replace them if needed when you sell film cameras?
Those are 2 very nice cams! I don't replace light seals or do any other work with film equipment at this point because it's a rather small part of my business, with the main focus on digital and lenses.
@@pricklypearcamera Thanks for your reply.
Nikon D200, Nikon D7000, Canon D5 mk III, Samsung Bridge camera, old folding 35 mm camera, Polaroid folding camera leather covered.older Olympus slide scanner
Very cool!
Im a Canon user, and have used Canon since the release of the A1, back in the 1980s. But started in the middle of the 1970s with a Practica LTL3 and a Chinon CE-3. Have owned Canon F1 old, A1, T90, EOS 500N, 550D, 50D, and 70D. Right now I had 6D mark2, EOS R and EOS R6. An R5 are on my wanted list, but has so fare been out of reach. 😉
Wow-that's a 40 year run of Canon! Great stuff, and some cool cameras you've used there.
Sony. More because it was the first (old!) DSLR I bought when unsure the bug would bite - but it did, and now I’m just sort of bought in, with the lenses..
I like a variety of brands. Although I've never had a Nikon. Mostly Canon, Pentax, Samsung for digital :-)
Cool! I myself haven't dabbled in any of Nikon's mirrorless line yet. The used market pricing is very high as most of the models are pretty new. Unfortunately, makes it hard to find good deals on those, but perhaps in a few years! Thanks for watching..
For work - Nikon all the way....for personal shooting I have and still do shoot Pentax, Olympus, Panasonic, Canon, Sigma, Konica Minolta and Leica
Very cool!
Pentax, but open to suggestion. When shooting film, I often carried a Kiev 4 (Contax II copy), because it was lighter than my KX/Chinon CE-4s system.
The, "Sony A-mount," was introduced on the Minolta 7000, the world's first working AF SLR - Sony later swallowed Minolta whole.
Sony bought the camera business. Konica Minolta now focuses on business products, printers, copiers, and medical imaging.
Fuji, Sony, Ricoh here 📷
I am all Nikon. I grew up on Canon, but moved to Nikon about 20 years ago.
i shoot alot of 2005-2008 digital cameras ranging from Olympus, Panasonic & Samsung. Most costing less than $60 with battery and charger
Very cool!!
Great vid as always Kevin. Was the first camera you tested (the Minolta x700) actually working? They usually sell well if they do because it was actually voted European camera of the year at one point. I have one and it's a super nice camera but the electrics can die on them especially if they're not used for a long time.
Haven't had a chance to test it yet! Good to know on the internals, I don't come across it too often.
Currently just a Canon M200 and a Nothing Phone as a B camera. Thinking into purchase a Sony NEX series or A5000 next.
Cool! Lot's of lens options now for NEX, including some affordable third party manual focus lenses that are fun to shoot with!
Nikon, Canon, Fujifilm, Leica
Good variety there!
I shoot with a mix of brands but mostly Nikon.
The US Market for used cameras seems to be very different than it is here in Austria and the EU. I am not a retailer or so but i have a pretty big camera and lens collection and so iam often buying cams and also selling stuff i dont want anymore or just bought in a lot because of something i wanted to have. The digicam hype is not real over here at least on the local market places (maybe on ebay). Entrylevel DSLR dont sell, Bridge Cams dont sell, Nice Vintage SLRS do not sell very well eighter, vintage lenses sell pretty well as people like to adapt them to mirrorless, but the type of camera that sells by far the best here are analog point and shoot cameras. If i selll a nice SLR + a lens for around 50€ it probaly take 2 month till it sells but i can easily sell 4 analog point and shoots for 40€ each with in a week.
Very interesting indeed! We definitely saw the hyped digicams here, with model specific interest leading to prices going to astronomical values (like the Nikon S6900). I used to sell that for $100 5 years ago and now it sells for $300-400+. The budget DSLR market here in the US I would say gets smaller and smaller every year with prices reducing as a result.
@@pricklypearcamera how do vintage lenses sell in the US? i mean like old takumars, russian helios and Jupiter, carl zeiss jena lenses, minolta md and so on?
Here in Ireland the market has moved over to digital point and shoots. I've sold loads of film cameras a few years ago, but I've noticed a drop off in the demand for them in the last 12 months. I might sell one a month. On the other side I've selling digital point and shoots like they are going out of fashion. I remember picking up a mint boxed sony cyber shot with all the bits for free for my daughter in 2019. At the time you couldn't give them away. That's just my experience.
Shoot Nikon for my main, Bronica for medium, Toyo for 4x5.
Nice!
Where did you buy the haul from? Link please 🙂
Nikon only 😁
A good haul but I would say personally those plastic fantastic 90s cameras were seriously horrible pieces of kit.
I used a canon 1d mark iii for my dslr
I use two bridge cameras, a lumix fz1000 and a Sony rx10 mark iii (because Leica and zeiss lenses) the lumix is brand new with like 30 shots and the Sony I got for a bargain for very cheap with a slightly damaged lcd and rubber grip stuff peeling all over it. I bought the Sony so that I can keep my lumix pristine for longer.
And for point and shoot I use an Olympus tg-6
So Canon, Sony, Panasonic and Olympus :p
Very nice, I love the RX10 series, and the FZ1k and FZ1K II are awesome too!
personally i only shoot canon only gear because it was what i started learning on and have never had the money to invest into a fujifilm or sony
Where do you get the cameras? Off eBay auction? Or a website auction? Is there anyway I would be able to start something similar to this?
This was an online charity shop auction. I still get a decent amount through eBay auctions, as well as gov. liquidation (city, county with local pickup), and a variety of others.
mate love your videos, can I ask, when you have a dslr why do you leave the sensor open to dust? ie put a lens or a body cap on it. regards Mick. (autistic)
Hi Mick, This was an untested lot that was sold to me without body caps. After the video I put body caps on them all!
I use a Canon EOS Rebel T7 as my main camera and have a Nikon Coolpix s230 as a quick point and shoot, would my phone give a better photo? yes, but I hate phone controls for photos no one made a photographer-centric smartphone with a shutter button, and a better hand grip and the lenses are ok but scratch easily.
By the time a video is out are the items on your eBay or do you post the video and then list items a few days later?
Listing a few from the video as we speak, normally try to have 'em listed throughout the next week or two from filming. Nice! I have shot a ton with the T7 and a variety of Canon glass. Great stuff.
@@pricklypearcamera been using the T7 for 8 years now and not much I ask for other then higher frames per second for action photography and an adjustable display.
Good to know I hope to swoop up that Minolta 28mm
I am looking for your eBay site but eBay directed me to another site as the listed item wasn't available
This link should work: www.ebay.com/str/california545
Canon D60 is 6 megapixel
Quite true! I mis-spoke, might have been thinking about the D30.
Where do you list your for sale gear?
Hi you can find my ebay store here: www.ebay.com/str/california545
I recall when T50 came. It was rather disappointment as the fist of the new T-series. It was the first SLR I noticed which was fully automatic only.
I have never had a non-Canon camera if one ignores the Kodak pocket camera I had in the 70s.
That N80 is worth saving IMO.
Hi brother.....its ryan
Haha!
😂😂🤭
am i the only guy who buts used cameras at thrift stoeres
if your selling these old cameras for the price your stated it must be Americans want old low pixels camera s as the 2nd hand prices of newer dslrs and the same as the low pixels cameras your charging for so most people would go for the newer higher pixel cameras, you couldn't sell these old cameras in the uk for the prices your saying. there worthless with lower than 18 pixels in the uk. old film cameras you wouldnt pay more than £15 for a mint one as no one wants them
@@RM-zo2nh you didnt read my text, I said lower than 18 pixels this guy suppose to sell 8 pixel cameras at silly prices
