My first heavily used camera was a Sony Mavica floppy disk camera back in 1999-2000. I went back through my photos recently and couldn’t believe the quality of those .35mp shots. That, or my Polaroid box camera with real Polaroid 600 film. Those were a blast to use when I was in my teens.
My first camera was an Olympus OM-1 and then OM-2. I love the Rebel xs, 2000, and ti, though I've had fun with an Elan and EOS5. I mostly use my OM-4Ti now.
I don’t know what my first camera was, it was old and plastic and pink and formerly my sisters. Was some sort of point and shoot, photos were ok. First film camera that I actually got myself is a spotmatic f, love it, loving having gone back to film
It cracks me up that the late 90s SLRs are essentially the culmination of over a 100 years of film photography evolution and can produce the best possible images, but often go for a fraction of the price because of less desirable aesthetics. Perfect situation for a cheapskate like myself.
For real. I'm a Nikon shooter so I usually recommend the Nikon n55, n60, n65+ series. It's not as glamorous as a Canon Ae-1 but it is significantly cheaper, lighter, and has modern comforts like auto mode, manual mode + autofocus.
Always hittin with the vibes 🎉 Started photography with a ps nikon then a rebel t1i, then alongside my dad AE1 and then it just took off. I love using old folders now and 50s mechanical cameras. Cheaper the better, but if it makes me want to take phots then its the right camera ❤! Cheers
Well put. I took the F2AS because it’s what I had but live it now. But, if for practical performance, I love the & use an F4 standard but it’s heavier. So if I need a grab & go reliable film, I choose the F90X even over the glorified F100. It looks typical 90s & nobody is bothering me about it. & yet, it does the best of the best on films besides the F6. AF matrix TTL is outstanding for its time & keep up today.
I got my Canon Rebel 2000 at a thrift store in 2019 for $10. Are there prettier cameras? Sure, but this is the one I learned SLR photography on and it is my buddy now :)
What was the first camera you learned to use?

I wish I remembered but my high school had a photography class with a darkroom and all. If I were to guess maybe a Minolta..?

I have about two dozen film cameras but I love my EOS 300.

I always recommend this Nikon series! I have several. Just beware of sticky grip.
I really should buy one of those EF mount film cameras, since I also use EF mount glass on my modern mirrorless with an adapter.

🙌AMEN🙌
Manual cameras will "always work" unlike 90s eletronics in these cameras. Thats a reason for alot of people who skip on these newer film cameras.
love my EOS cameras got three of them. great for hiking, or just chucking in a rucksack.
As a xpan owner I love mines and just like a unfaithful ex. I’ll be cheating by cropping photos to make it look like I shot with it.
you're a really good writer/ speaker btw :)
Way too kind!
great viddy!
Timmy boy!! I love you and Chris🙏
Thanks for scoping the video!
My Minolta made the videeeoooo!
Dude who wipes their cameras / lens with their shirts? 😳😳👀👀
Me 😅
Me! That's why, for over 20 year's a filter goes on every lens.
@@czelendzerii3985 I know me too I usually bring a cloth and I forgot mine
