Re: Vintage film cameras
A while ago I would have gone for this, especially with the adaptall. https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digita...ras/1331997596
Either the GAS is fading or I'm getting more selective. There was an OM20 with a Zuiko 35-70 f4 in a local charity shop today but they wanted £40 for it. I passed |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Well it's been a while but I can't keep my hands to myself for ever. Juts bagged this 192838957742
Not sure the Kodaks are worth much but might get some of my money back. The Zeiss goes for £15-25 and is pretty much their latest Box Tengor model. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
Can't get the number to work. I doubt the GAS is fading, more like you are getting more selective. My local reuse shop has a bucket of various Practika models but they just don't do it for me. I've got higher end Olympus, Pentax and Minoltas and I've been spoiled! Yoko, I've got a Tamron 70-210 f4-5.6 58A with OK mount kicking around if you want it for your lens collection. Heading for charity shop otherwise.

Re: Vintage film cameras
If you want a no hassle easy to shoot camera that gives a truly vintage look then I highly recommend respooling a roll of film to 620 and shooting the old Kodak.

Re: Vintage film cameras
I've always had a soft spot for the old Prakticas. The LTL3 was my first 'serious' camera after a Zenit. Solid and loud but I liked the metal shutter and got used to the stop down metering and shutter release position. The lens it came with was OK too. Shame it got nicked but it paved the way for an OM2.
Thanks for the offer but I'll pass on the Tamron thanks as I've a couple of 103As to cover that range. It might be worth putting on ebay or Gumtree first to contribute towards something else. |

Re: Vintage film cameras
If they are still up there I will take a look at the Practikas again. I know there is an MTL50 and an MTL3 but there are a couple of others. They are only like £4 each.

Re: Vintage film cameras
Pretty good for an old Russian camera. A nice clear image. Is it with the Jupiter 8?
