Vintage film cameras - Page 637 - SV650.org

Not heard of that one before, I would say I'd look it up but I have an AE1 Program and need more cameras like a hole in the head. It's strange how some models get overlooked. Take the KM, it's a K1000 with dof preview and self timer (all missing from the K1000) but the K1000 often sells for three or four times more than the KM.

I know you aren't a zone focus fan JR, but spotted this 183873901244

I had to read up about the AT1 too. I went down to WYC and got an AD2 mount to fit it so I don't need to start a lens collection.
Something must be going right at WYC. They sell analogue only but are expanding and moving to a bigger shop.

I've seen film camera prices climb over the last few years. If, I started my collection with now I doubt I would have half the cameras I do now, let alone any of the OM higher end range.

Reckon you're right, I keep an eye on ebay etc. for a few cameras that I know about, looking for a bargain, but there aren't so many and the prices in general seem higher. Apart from, that is, an old Canonet 19. Saw one with a jammed shutter, decided not to take a punt on it as working ones seem to be going for about a tenner!

Better get in quick on an OM4

That would be sweet. I'm going to the Flying Legends airshow at Duxford on Sunday. Got grandstand seats for the display. Might have to take my bridge camera as its got a 30x zoom on it.

Nice. I went to the large model airshow at Cosford last Sunday. Some amazing planes. I took over 600 photos which I'm still editing. I'll post some here once I'm done.

I'm not very familiar with the range, and it's a bit of a schlep even for yoko
