Pin sharp clarity.

I have taken colour photos with this camera using a 50mm Nikkor f/1.8 lens and the results are simply mind blowing. Thirty six perfectly exposed photos, even in low light conditions. It’s almost like a modern DSLR using film. It’s going for practically next to nothing on eBay now and if you are thinking of returning to film photography. Don’t just take my word for it. Have a look at the attached results from Kodak Gold 200 film. Read full review

Does the job pretty well, for a very reasonable price.

Really rather a decent camera, given that it was never a top-of-the range model. Not as plasticy as it could have been, and handles pretty well. The LCD display is clear, and the readings displayed on the viewfinder are brighter and easier to read than some similar cameras. Image quaility seems pretty good to me. I used Ilford HP5 plus film, and developed it myself. The camera let me squeeze 37 shots out of a 36 exposure film, which is nice, and they all came out well exposed and with excellent contrast, even when using a cheap 28 to 80mm kit lens. Also seems very quiet in operation, for an SLR. I did wonder if the mirror and shutter were working, but I needn't have worried. The one slight negative is that the viewfinder, although clear, is a little small, and seems to mist up very easily, but the January weather probably didn't help.Read full review

Professional as well as student

Great camera for everybody who wants to learn film photography. Easy to understand and good quality. Precise shutter, no light leaks, lightweight. You can use it as "point'n'shoot" but what's the point of it? Take, learn, make great photos (find your lens). Electronic film winder, autofocus, depth-of-field preview, screen on the top for all info you need. The only little minus for myself is lack of screen illumination. But you can use your phone anyway because you'll download a light meter software, or guess. For point'n'shoot take anything else with no switches and strange knobs.Read full review

A good camera for good pictures but film costs expensive.

The item had been well cared for previously and so the photographs it were produced were of the anticipated quality. The only problem now is the cost of the 35mm fil to go in the camera but the camera itself makes really good use of the "pricey film" available.Read full review

Camera was just what was needed

This camera was for my grandsons college work . I have replied yes to all because he was very pleased with it but as yet has not developed any film although taken lots of photos. I am hoping the images will be good and it is reliable! The condition of it seemed very good.Read full review
