    He completely slept on the two late 90’s early 2000’s slrs. The ones with silver paint plastic. Those are sleeper cameras waiting for the hype train. They’re gonna be fantastic p&s alternatives, once the trendy p&s supply dries up or they all break. By the late 90’s early 2000’s, film camera technology was at it’s peak. Cameras had great metering and af, and could work well in auto mode. The great thing about the slrs, is you can get good lenses(prime) and then you have a really good p&s. I thrifted a Minolta HTsi plus, and the thing is so small and light with a prime lens. It was made for auto shooting but has manual capability, has DX coding that can be overridden, spot meter and af back button, and ev compensation and 1/4000 ss. If anyone ever comes across any of these 2000’s slrs at a bargain, snag them because eventually they’ll be desirable.

      @jujuespino1374 Před 2 lety

      True don’t even need an expensive prime either but thrift stores try to sell those for more cuz they look like normal cameras I’ve seen them priced at like 50$ which is almost eBay price

      @@JoseFuentes-dt4mv exactly! You want to get them at a deal like that. A lot of people don’t want them because they’re ugly and unfashionable, but they’re great for fun shooting and will give better results than overpriced Mju/Epic II.

Still gotta get the test roll developed, but that thing was a joy to shoot, so here's hoping it works fine!

    some of those old point and shoot canons use CCD sensors, which lend a more filmic look. I have a 2002 PowerShot G3 and it takes really interesting looking photos.

    I actually have that Nikon Nice Touch Zoom! Still have to shoot with it yet but it's encouraging to see it in another's hands. Just to note since mine came with the manual and case: It uses DX codes and only does 100/400 ISO film. No DX code? Defaults to 100 ISO. Just an FYI!

    Smacking the hell out inanimate objects is a good strategy. It also works with people, but it should be avoided with children. Also, pick up a can of contact spray and some Q-Tips. Sometimes contacts will have a bit of dust or grime on them.

    Trying to put out some infos about 16:05.
    The Canon Shure Shot (aka Canon Prima Twin in the EU) is my To-Go camera for parties/events because of the wide angle lens.
    Thing is - there is no flash control. Cant turn it off or on. But I do not mind since I WANT the lens for its nice flash output.
    Since the F.stop of both the lenses (28mm 4.0 and 48mm 6.5) are not that wide open, so the flash works "harder". the overall images overeall sharp and very well lit when used flash. There is actually just very less "fall-off" of the Flash in the corners. DX-Code goes from 50-1600. But really, I love using Gold 200.
    On the Bottom, you find a little "foot" you can fold out so it tilts upwards when you wanna use the selftimer - Neat feature if you shoot while traveling.
    What else to say? There is actually a younger Brother of this Camera - Prima Twin S - but it lacks the 28mm. So thats why I prefer the older modell.
    Enjoy the little brick :)
    Much love!.

    Those point and shoots with the two prime lenses are great.
