Very nice pictures and thanks a lot for your help Jim.
Unfortunately I do not know anybody who is even interested in "old school" photography
They all seem obsessed with the digital age.
Obviously you seem to be someone with a lot of experience, therefore I consider your advice very valuable.
Now I had worked with the Canon AE1 before and I liked it a lot although I had a lot of blurred results with it. Nevertheless now that you mentioned it, I might really give it a go once more.
I went down to a second-hand shop yesterday and found it imediately. It is available for a reasonable price I guess. I haven't spoken to they shopowner there yet, as I had just found the shop recently.
I would like you to comment also on the range of other camreas that he offers, just if you do not mind and when you have the time to do so. They all seem to be in a good condition:
Canon AE1 69GBP
Olympus OM101 149GBP
Nikon N50 119GBP
Nikon F65 149GBP
Minolta Dynax 4 119GBP
He also had a set of "no name" cameras, which I would not really consider.
There was another shop which displayed the AE1 for 120GBP and the owner said that he provides 1 month guarantee, as the camera had been checked through by a professional studio (i think it was Jessop).
He also had a bundle for sale:
Olympus OM1N with flash and two lenses: 19-35 & 70-210
for 129GBP
Thank you in advance for your feedback Jim and take care.
Obviously this is not a private chat between me and Jim, so if anyone would want to add his comments, please do not hesitate.
ADDITION:
I just read the lens discussion that you mentioned Jim and I was surprised to read that you are using an EOS 5 yourself. Last time I had the impression you do not like the EOS-Series, as you did not like the EOS 3000.
Therefore a couple more offers from the second-hand shop, that I did not consider, but would like to hear what you have to say about them:
Canon EOS 620 for 69GBP
Canon EOS 50 for 159GBP
Thanks once more...
