Beautiful Minolta XE-7 from around 1975. Glass and brass – semi-pro level 35mm SLR with a ton of features including aperture priority automatic. It’s been fully tested with film and everything works as designed. Just a touch of brassing for that desirable classic look. It’s in my shop at www.ccstudio2380.com Thanks for stopping by, Chris

I recently had the opportunity to grab my Nikon One Touch, load a roll of very expired Fujicolor, and hit the beach.
Nikon One Touch (AF3) is out and about.Not the best choice for testing a camera but I wanted to see what this kind of hard-to-find “commercial” film would look like this expired (Feb 2001).The Nikon leaves a nice bit of the film leader exposed at the end of the roll.
The camera worked perfectly but as hard as the film lab tried, this older Fujicolor film tended to be a bit too green.
“Plastic” sea turtle display.Sliders Seaside Grill and Tiki Bar at the beach.The bird must have read the sign… the guy not so much.If you don’t have a 4×4 then you shouldn’t go past this sign. AWD doesn’t cut it!
This expired roll of Fujifilm was all I had sitting around so I thought I’d give it a go. As I said, the camera works just fine but that’s the last time I’ll use expired film to test a camera! The Nikon is now available in my shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com – thanks for stopping by, Chris

Nikon followed up on the success of their first autofocus compact 35mm camera the Nikon L35AF (1983) with the AF2 in 1984 and then this model the One Touch (AF3). It’s a bit confusing because nowhere did Nikon call this third version the AF3 – it was simply the Nikon One Touch. The good news is that I have a beautiful One Touch in mint condition and still in its original box and with all of its factory goodies. I’ve shot two rolls with it recently and I’m always amazed at just how sharp the images are with this camera and with some Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400 film. The lens is a fast and sharp Nikon 35mm f/2.8 glass lens with macro (close-up) coupled with as Nikon describes a 16-step autofocus system.
Nearly new complete set.
In the studio.It’s fun whenever you get to collect such a nice camera with all of its original goodies.Gorgeous Nikon One Touch. A much more modern design than the 1983 original.Sample image shot on Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400 color negative film.
