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.

I know, the title looks like a mathematical equation. Fujifilm (USA) is now selling its most popular models made in Japan instead of China to avoid its US customers from paying the high tariffs imposed on China. Here is a snip from Fuji’s website this morning (July 2, 2025). The ‘JP’ designates that the camera is made in Japan.
That’s quite a difference in the price between a Chinese-made X-T5 and a made-in-Japan model. Currently, Fujifilm has the X-T5 (Silver Model) in stock. If you’re interested in this camera, I suggest you move quickly, as it’s likely to sell out.I use the Fujifilm X-T2 and love it. Would I like to upgrade to the X-T5? Yes!

Powerful Sensor The imaging technology of the 40MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS 5 HR Sensor of the Fujifilm X100VI allows for detailed and masterful shots. With high resolution available in most cameras, creators can capture all the fine details in their environment. Whether it is a crowded city street or a rocky beach lit up in striking shades at sunset, the Fujifilm X100VI’s powerful sensor is a necessary upgrade. Operating at twice the speed of the previous generation, capturing fleeting expressions in portraits or the waves as they crest a seawall is no problem for the Fujifilm X100VI.
Digital teleconverters come in handy, especially when you need a closer shot. Users will get 1.4x and 2.0x crop factors with this Fujifilm camera, along with an internal 4-stop neutral density (ND) filter, to give you even more control over your shots.

Canon NFD 24mm f/2.8 lens. I should have used a yellow or orange filter.My 1978 Canon F-1 loaded and ready to go on a photo walk.Canon NFD 24mm f/2.8 lens.I got better results using the meter in the F-1 when using a 1.35v Wein Cell.Canon NFD 24mm f/2.8 lens. A slightly better exposure.The World-famous Palace Saloon, Fernandina Beach Historic District.
Processing and scans were done by The Darkroom at medium resolution. The images below I used a 625A 1.5v battery which, on average made the camera’s meter two stops off.
Canon FD 50mm f/1.4 SSC lens. In the tight confines of the historic district, a 50mm lens isn’t my favorite lens to shoot with. I’m a wide-angle lens guy.OK exposure but, I’m not happy with it.Missed it by a country mile!Canon OD F-1 with a Canon FD 50mm f/1.4 SSC lens (my original lens from 1978).

I’ve enjoyed acquiring camera and photography brochures over the years and now have quite an extensive collection of them (go figure). I’ll be listing some of them in my camera shop over the next few months so if you’re on the hunt for something specific, just let me know and or visit my shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com.
This is a large-format Fujifilm film brochure from 1998. Fujicolor Professional 160 film was a popular color negative film in the 1990s.Here is a relatively hard-to-find brochure on the not-often-seen Yashica Electro 35 Professional camera from 1970. It’s a Japanese camera shop brochure.A large (9 x 21 inch) Plexiglas camera dealer’s display sign is also available in my shop.I no longer own the camera but have the original boxes for it. It would add a nice touch to your collection.The Canon black and olive green camera bag is still new and unused and is available.A like-new Minolta 35mm SLR set with its original box and papers.
These are just a few of the neat items I have in my shop, all at a 10% savings! Thanks for stopping by, Chris.
