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
If you’re interested in this camera I’ve added it to my shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com. Thanks for stopping by, Chris

If you are unfamiliar with the Nikon L35AF, it was released in 1983 and was Nikon’s first autofocus point & shoot camera. It features a sharp 35mm f2.8 Nikon lens.
Nikon’s first and maybe best.

It’s time to offer my last still new in its original box Yashica L AF to another collector. I still have three other L AFs to use but this is my last NIB camera.
I’ve blogged about this camera before and described it as an affordable alternative to the popular Yashica T3 Super and Kyocera T AF both of which have Carl Zeiss lenses.
Everything’s still factory fresh (even the original Sanyo battery is still unopened).It’s a good-sized camera with some heft to it – a nice feel in your hands almost small SLR-like.Sample image – Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400Sample image – Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400Sample image – Fujicolor Superia X-TRA 400Complete as pictured.
