My d90 would be so sweet in brushed aluminum/magnesium. Plus I could clobber peons with it. When you think about it though, quite a few DSLRs have metal housings, they're just covered in plastic and rubbery compounds.

We have a v500 at my current client's print shop and while I can't speak of the scan quality the LED light you don't have to wait for is amazing.

You can't really fit more than 40 shots worth of 35mm film in a canister. It's just cheaper.

There's a dude not too far with an Olympus 35 RD for sale, what should I reasonably expect to pay for it?

So I've been looking at film cameras for a while now, and I'm slowly posing hope of finding a decent rangefinder (Minolta 35, Canonet 17). I did come across a dude selling a good condition R3 (with a 50 and a 90 elmarit-R). Too bad it kinda defeats the purpose of the cameras I intended to get (small body, fast glass to throw BW film in and take everywhere) or I'd go take a look at it.

HPL posted:If you want something easy, you'll probably want something with some kind of metering, which Leicas don't have. It's kind of a dangerous way to go about it but I don't have a fixed budget, as long as I end up with something usable by a digi-newbie and with features worth the money. So stuff like metering Leica rangefinders are pretty much out, and I'm more looking for stuff like decent shape QL17, 35RD's (pretty much nobody wants to part with those, it's ridiculous), things like that. The goal's really to get something smaller/lighter than my D90+Sig 30 combo, as that's what I carry everywhere now, and it gets aggravating when I have my work laptop+adapter plus a bunch of work-related hardware/reports in my bag already. It seems the thing to do is not be afraid to look at camera's from the UK/Germany, as the stinky loving Dutch only ever bought cheap rangefinders with slow lenses. Still no 35RD in sight, but there's quite a few QL17's for decent prices. I'd really rather get away from a mirror-slapping beast if I could at all. Thanks for the advice the lot of you, I feel the same as when I got my D90: the more I read the more I see the amount of poo poo I don't know. evil_bunnY fucked around with this message at 19:53 on Nov 3, 2009 |

HPL posted:If you plan on shooting a lot, look into bulk loading. Canada is in a similar situation in that B&W film prices can be horrific, but bulk loading takes a bit part of the sting out of that. Also I've got C-41 color film in it now, but I've got to find a place that'll take that B&W since I don't have any developing supplies. What the gently caress did I just get myself into

I'd get the F3 just for the 50/1.2, but you should be aware it's not exactly a lightweight combination. Get your friend another Nikon

Why you'd need more than 2 cameras/backs is foreign to me. 100 in one, 800 in the other, gogogo. Of course, my 3rd film camera is currently on its way to me now. gently caress you, gear lust.

My F3 just got in, so it's question time, since a camera with a meter and a motor winder will do horrible things to my film intake. - Is there a guide somewhere listing which (unbranded/third party) films are which (first party/too rich for my blood). I found semi-cheap Tri-X here (I'm on the old continent). - Euro film nerds: Are there any recommended places to get cheaper film?

Just shot my first couple of rolls with mine. Took the winder off after the first one: I'm not yet made out of money

HPL posted:Oddly, the slower the shutter speed you select, the more you have to turn the film winding knob which also cocks the shutter. You would think it would be the other way around, but whatever.
