Re: Vintage film cameras
I know, but I have so many to shoot with already though. With the new XE-1 and now the XE-5, older ones keep getting pushed back. So much to shoot, so little time...

Re: Vintage film cameras
Car repair trumps all at the moment. Going in Tuesday for some work.

Re: Vintage film cameras
I know the feeling on that. I was without mine over Christmas as one of the front coil springs had broken. I just had that fixed plus a pair of rears and some other work to get it through the MOT.
February is a bad month for me too; bike and car insurance both come round. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Mine has an electrical fault which wouldn't clear. Hopefully it will get fixed. I've got loads to shoot so no worries there, would be nice to make it through a tub!

Re: Vintage film cameras
I folded and messaged the XD seller. They still have it and I'm going over after work Friday to pick it up.

Re: Vintage film cameras
I think you'll like it. Compact, lovely shutter, multi-mode ..
If it's all working for £20, it's worth folding for. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
I had some Christmas gift money left so its not really costing anything, just time and fuel. Its not far from the OM JR found for me but still an hour and a half round trip. The lens might need some attention but worth a punt. I can't show you any pics as he removed it, chrome model with Rokkor 50mm f1.7.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Totally worth the hour or so round trip in the freezing cold on the bike. This thing is near mint. Came with three films and a manual.
