Dead Hands Cameras

It seems I missed the memo or perhaps I’m just not in the loop with the hip film crowd, or perhaps both. A bunch of film photography bloggers have been sharing posts this week, revealing the five cameras that, “you’ll have to pry from my cold, dead hands,” invoking Charlton Heston’s famous line to the […]

Ice Castles on Film

Back in February, my wife and I decided to visit the Midway Ice Castles on the last day before they closed for the season. I took two cameras and used three different films. The main camera was my Yashica Mat-124 G loaded with Ultrafine Extreme 100 and then Fuji Acros 100II. My second camera was […]

Flynn’s on Film

A few weeks ago I took the day off and spent some time at Flynn’s Retrocade with my Canon EOS 10S and some Agfa Vista 200 color film. It was nice to go somewhere during a cold COVID afternoon that was indoors and open. Thanks to Michelle at Flynn’s for allowing me to use my […]

Kodak Plus-X Pan 125 (Expired 3/1981)

Here are some additional photos taken with the Canon 10S. This time I experimented with some Kodak Plus-X Pan 125 that had expired in March of 1981.

Canon Barcode Reader E

This is the first time I’ve written about a camera oddity. After I discovered the Canon Barcode Reader E, it was too fun to pass up. After I purchased the Canon 10S, I noticed the barcode option on the camera, but not much information was given in the manual. What might be a laughable concept […]

Canon EOS 10S (1990)

Last May, Scott Smith was at the Utah Film Photography Worldwide Headquarters (my house) to develop some 4×5 sheets he’d shot with his newly acquired Graflex. We used a tank that would hold ten sheets and required over a half gallon of chemistry. I’m not doing that again. I’ll stick with 4 sheets in the […]

Canon New Sure Shot

The third version of Canon’s Sure Shot made in in 1983 ($150 USD) was sold as the New Sure Shot in the United States, AF35MII in Europe, and the Autoboy 2 in Japan. The New Sure Shot is a simple point and shoot 35mm camera featuring a 38mm f/2.8 – 16 lens. The camera focuses […]

Canon Canonet G-III QL17

Back in March when I won a Minolta Hi-Matic 7S at the Film Photography Project Walking Workshop, I had been looking to get a 35mm rangefinder camera. Shortly after that, my friend Mike Williams sent me a Yashica Electro 35 GS, another great rangefinder. And now, the Canon Canonet G-III QL17 rangefinder. I actually found […]

Canon Photura

After I graduated from high school 1989, I went to work at my local Best Products store in Riverdale, Utah. If you don’t remember Best, it was also known by its former name, LaBelle’s. It was a catalog showroom where customers would walk the isles of the store or browse a catalog, find the product […]

Canon A-1 & Robots

The A-1 features both aperture and shutter priority modes. This was the first Canon camera to have sophisticated electronics. At the time it really generated a lot of debate among traditional film photographers. The purists at the time believed the computer did too much for the photographer as it was the first camera to have a true automatic program mode.
