woo hoo, just bought a SLR camera, that’s right. Film
Something I always wanted to own. The fully manual ones where you have to wind each time you snap.. fun stuff to me. I picked up the Nikon FM10 for under $500 which included a zoom lens, filter and film from Pacific Mall.
The Nikon FM10 is about 15 years old, it has a nice vintage look to it (although it is vintange). It’s nice because it just has your essential dials for shutter speed and ISO settings, a depth of field preview button. It came with a zoom lens, but I’m already looking into picking up something a little smaller.
I read up on some of the different types of lens and already have a few in mind. My friend has about 6 cameras and he’s going to be teaching me a few things when it comes to that, otherwise, this SLR is pretty alien to some of us.
May pick up a film to digital reader later so I can back up photos on the spot.
