Thrift stores around here tend to not have cameras, but estate sales have tons because the owners of the house tend to have been very old and just went into a nursing home or passed away. They're always so cheap and nice vintage gear. I'm kicking myself for not getting into film into just now, because I've been to a few pro photographers sales

I got mine for $15 at a thrift store and I honestly didn’t think it would work, but all it needed was new batteries! Keep up the great work! :) your videos are super informative!

[bcsalaska]

Bro, you gotta change your smoke detector battery!

My Minolta X-700 is one of my FAVORITE cameras. It's brilliant.

This is indeed a great way of buying a filmcamera! I bought mine the same way actually. subscribed after watching 5 seconds ;) Nice job man!

Great video dude.
I would also recommend KEH as well. You end up spending a little more, but you also have a guarantee on the condition of the camera. I use them when i'm buying something big, like my pentax 67.

Nice work man! Keep it up.

KingJvpes brother Minolta was our first camera which my aunty bought for us from Dubai . We used the camera for a long long time those days of the 80s & 90s was so memorable with all the film loads & stuff then give it to process & stuff & wait for the final photos.
Good old days

Me after watching this video : try to bids on eBay but fail...

Sadly walking through a thrift store to find some cheap digital camera to mess around with (cause I won't be using those for my daily base lol)

Walk through the camera aisle

Suddenly something caught my eye

A Nikon F401X with lens included for 8$

Me : jackpot bitches!!!

Bro major improvements since this video!

[KyriexEstheim]

Digital mindset is to spend more to get better result.. bonkers

[danielcarabottdamato]

i shoot on this camera and its awsome very easy to use and has a vsery nice viewfinder also the program mode makes it very easy for beginners ;)

[jonvincentmusic]

It's a completely different mindset for young people only brought up with digital photography. Us 'oldies' knew it was 'all about the glass', but digital changed all that and digital photographers only get the very best shots if they can afford the very best cameras with the very best sensors and firmware, no matter how good a lens they slot up front. And as soon as you buy the best, it's obsolete seconds later by something with improved hardware or software. It's a mug's game: chasing numbers. It's high time real photography made a comeback I think.

watched this video, went to ebay, and won a bid for a minolta x-370 for $30! not 100% if that's the best bang
for my buck, but it was so timely considering i watched the video minutes before. thank you for this!

I bought a Minolta Maxxum 5. I get the benefit and allure of film without the hassle. It was made in the very early 2000s. Very easy to use and to adjust. Settings can be automated as much or as little as you like, unlike point and shoot 35mm. Film is advanced and rewound automatically.

[UnusSedLeo-wl]

Excellent! Got 3 X-700's and number 4 is on its way. So widely available and cheap.

[roge]

So I used these tips in my first ever eBay bidding and scored an Olympus XA 🤗🤗

[Mikemantis]

Dope video, but you need a new battery in your smoke lol

[thewhiskychef_nl]

love your video man, I shoot a lot on a pantax k1000 and a canon ae-1. DSLR shooting is great and I love it but film gets the best out of me.

[cedricmines]

I often go to flea markets or garage sales. They usually dont know what they have there and you can even talk the price down if you are well informed about film cameras and know what doesnt work or could be a problem on some cameras. I recently got a Canon 7s with a 50mm f1.2 lens for 20 bucks a Zenit E with a Helios 44-2 f2.8 for 15 and even a Olympus mju2 for 3. So search around your cities and find some garage sales and youre good to go.

Good and motivating advice, thank you!
