I also have my Canon New F-1 camera available in my shop.

I just added this classic Nikon camera strap. It’s still made in Japan by Nikon.

It’s a rather rare strap, *For Professional*.

On an APS-C sensor DSLR like the Canon EOS 30D, a 50mm lens has an effective focal length of about 80mm.

Happy SUNday! – Canon WP-1

A favorite of mine: the Canon Sure Shot WP-1 35mm compact, take-anywhere film camera from the mid 1990s. My complete set is still new in its original box and waiting for the next collector to give it a home.

Weather- and water-resistant, not waterproof (not for underwater use). It features a super-sharp Canon 32mm f/3.5 lens and full automatic exposure and autofocus.

Easy-to-operate controls, even with wet hands and cold fingers.

Locks shut for a good weatherproof seal.

It fits snuggly in its nylon case and pouch.

It’s a high-quality plastic fantastic from the 1990s. This camera was designed to go on adventures without fear of getting wet. Here’s a similar camera from Fujifilm, a decade before the Canon.
