Analog film photography and cameras

Heads up after some googlings soperfectimages in plymouth have very cheap ektar, and reasonable Fuji Pro. Nik and trick with some cheap Kodak proimage. Cant stomach the prices people are charging for colorplus recently.

@Turkish these are all half frame, Colourplus and FP4 I think? I do love the doubles...

Anyone looking for a sub-£100 camera, give the Canon Sureshot A1 a go. It looks a bit like a Fisher Price 'My First camera', but produces pretty incredible photos for a waterproof camera.

Can't put my finger on it, but that 3rd one with the window does it for me.

Just had a years worth of scrolling through this thread to catch up on but I just need to say that this is absolutely incredible

Thanks man, very kind of you. Hard to take a bad photo in Glencoe!

Fuck compacts. Shitty viewfinders, shitty controls, and quite often no way of adjusting exposure for their shitty metering.

I really wish there were better and gave me an option to use something other than my phone for an always on me camera.

Edit- No offence to anyone who owns and enjoys using a compact camera. There just not for me I guess.

Lol, as a compact fan, I find it hard to disagree with any of this.

Olympus XA is great but fiddly and expensive.

Soo sharp!

Just to stick my nose into the compact vs SLR chat and muddy the waters even further, a small, fixed lens rangefinder might be worth considering as well. I've had a couple that I've enjoyed using, particularly a Canon Canonet. They're small enough to carry wherever you go and you can get some really nice photos out of them. They're dirt cheap on eBay as well.

@Turkish I really like the one with the swan!

Nice one, cheers!

I'm selling some slightly unusual film cameras over in the classifieds! A Lomo Fisheye, an underwater 110 Minolta and a compact Canon APS camera. Also selling a Nikon 2x Teleconverter if anyone's interested.
