    It feels appropriate seeing these pictures of old, abandoned places taken using an old camera from a thrift store.

    • @theoldcameraguy
      @theoldcameraguy  4 года назад +1

      cdl0 I agree - That factory by the train tracks closed down in 1990, just five years after this camera was introduced.

    Hi, thanks for the shout out. Still you really are lucky. I guess you have a little "deal" going on... :)
    The lens on this one seems to be very nice, but the film and its grain is something really nice. Especially like the image @6:12, although I like many of the others too.
    Like one of the other comments here abandoned is a great motive but I would add it is really sad that so many of these places have gone to ruin. It is easy to see it as just buildings; but it is a community that has lost its sustainability. Makes for wonderful pictures but disheartening at the same time.
    Not trying to generate more work for you; but I for one would find a "talk over" video about some of these places very interesting. I've said it before but your images have a timeless quality.
    Thanks again and as always your videos are a pleasure to watch.
    Alex.,

      Alex Jackson-Smith I’ve enjoyed your street work for some time and I’m glad I finally had the opportunity to reference your channel here. The image at 6:12 is one of my favorites as well. It is sad to see some of these once thriving places abandoned. In the case of the Westinghouse plant, over 8,000 people were employed there at its peak - it has been sitting vacant since 1990. If we can’t always bring these places back to their former glory, I suppose the least we can do is document them before they disappear completely.

    • @AlexJacksonSmith
      @AlexJacksonSmith 4 года назад +1

      I totally agree that it is the best we can do. As I often say to document the mundane that would otherwise go unrecorded. Not a single news story, but a trend, a collection of livelihoods that have gone. The spirit and pride of a community is often associated with their work and activities. Very sad.
      Please do consider giving us an insight into the history with your images for context. I think by now you must have a powerful and timeless body of work for publication.

      Jamie Maldonado Thanks Jamie! I’m planning on heading back up to this location to shoot again (before the last 2 buildings get torn down). Trade secret on the backdrop - It’s a free wallpaper I found online that I just used with a green screen. My green screen is literally a cheap piece of drywall I covered with a roll of green poster paper from Hobby Lobby. (Pretty high tech, I know)...

    Very interesting.. I wonder how many versions of this they made.. I heard they made a much newer model that takes a strange battery and the flash is not a pop up one anymore but built in. Mine just says One Touch and still takes two AA batteries and that is a huge plus in my book :). Mine also has the slider that opens and closes the lens and turns on or off the camera and I do love that feature.. Mine does not have that digital section in the back for date and time and I guess only the AF model had the ISO dial and all the models after that has the DX detection or what ever its called .. Pretty cool and mine is like brand new and the lens and stuff is spotless so I after seeing what everyone else has been getting with there's my hopes are up there pretty high :). Thanks for pointing me to this video..

    hi! i’m a beginner photographer, and right now i see the l35ad on sale for $60 less than the af. i want to buy it, but i’m not sure if sacrificing the adjustable iso is worth it. what do you think?

    • @theoldcameraguy
      @theoldcameraguy  4 года назад +1

      monica. I wouldn’t worry about the whole ISO thing. I don’t push or pull film typically, so I can’t justify spending the extra $60 on the AF. The only time I manipulate the ISO is if I’m using expired film. If you stick to fresh film, the L35AD should serve you well. It is a great choice if you’re beginning and I think you’ll love it!

      There are ways to hack the dx code. The AF series can only go up to 1000iso. With the right dx code hack you can have the AD shoot 1600 iso

      The L35AD is the date back version of the L35AF, some of which went to 400, while some went to 1000. (I have the 1000 version of the L35AF). The L35AD2 has a DX code reader, and you can’t manually set the ISO.
