Modern Review: Camera and Photo

I bought this camera because it is very similar to the digital camera I am using (Canon T3i). I like having a housing that uses the same lens system as my main digital camera because it reduces the amount of gear I have to carry around. One of my favorite features of this camera is the ability to read the code on the side of the film cartridge to automatically tell the camera what the ISO and number of exposures the film is. Just plug in and let go. The camera unrolls the entire cartridge after you insert it, and each frame advances the film back into the canister, which is cool. This camera also delivers an impressive 3 frames per second in burst mode and has a handy backlit LCD panel. Rig had auto focus and motorized advance and could be used just like my digital camera. There was very little learning in the transition from the T3i to this camera. If, like me, you've outgrown your full-featured DSLR (Mamiya MSX 1000, Vivitar V-335), you should buy this camera. It's available for next to nothing and as it was Canon's last 35mm camera (probably 2004) you can probably get it in good condition too. I shoot about 50/50 film and digital and it's really nice to have such a modern film DSLR.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some bugs
