Happy SUNday! – I take an old friend out for a photowalk.

Chris and Carol

The Nikon L35AF was Nikon’s first 35mm autofocus camera. Its reputation is top-notch, which is the name it is known by in Japan – Picaichi. No swooping lines here, just a solidly built gem from the 1980s.

The Nikon features a super-sharp f/2.8 35mm lens.
Loaded with fresh Fujifilm 200. Not my favorite since Fuji dropped the better versions, but it’s still colorful and contrasty.
They came in two models. The first was an ISO 400, and the updated one was ISO 1000. This is the latter ISO 1000 one.
Ad from 1983 or early 1984.
Got to have the instructions.
The details.
I just added this very nice, unused Canon CPS Think Tank camera bag to my Etsy camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com.

Thanks for stopping by, Chris
