Classic Canon AE-1 with sharp Canon NFD 50mm f/1.8 lens. A late 1970s staple of the Canon ‘A ‘ Series cameras.
This one comes complete as part of the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics set.
Sharp little digicam from Fujifilm. The S3100 is a 4 megapixel bridge camera with an outstanding Fujinon 6x zoom lens.
CCD sensor for film-like images.
Almost new in its original boxed set.
I love Fuji cameras!

If you can get your hands on a lovely, near-mint model, go for it! The lens, the autofocus, and the autoexposure can’t be beat.

Mine, but it just sold in my Etsy shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com.

A ‘gift’ from Canada.

I received a package from Canada the other day, and these lovely stamps were carefully attached and not cancelled.

A Yashica makes an appearance in a sci-fi movie, again.

Thanks to a tip I received from Mike Bowman, I was able to grab this snip from the 1961 sci-fi movie ‘The Phantom Planet’ of a Yashica YT-100 tape recorder! It was part of the dashboard of a spaceship control panel. If you want to see for yourself, it’s at time stamp 41:47 in the very campy movie.
A nice original boxed set from 1960.
Yashica Camera vs. Rodan!

SUNday’s Cameras – Fujifilm Fun

Chris and Carol Leave a comment
Fujifilm FinePix S3380 14MP CCD sensor bridge camera.
26x Fujinon 24-500mm lens.
Fujifilm FinePix AX330.
Super sharp CCD sensor and 14MP.

There’s plenty of fun to be had with these two from Fujifilm. The super compact FinePix AX330, which fits in a shirt pocket, to the powerful FinePix S3380 bridge camera with a 26x 500mm Fujinon zoom lens and image stabilization, in a package that’s smaller than a typical DSLR or mirrorless camera. They are both in my Etsy camera shop now and available for purchase at http://www.ccstudio2380.com.
