One of the most stylish SLRs ever made, the Canon F-1 is a beautiful camera to use. It was in production for a full 10 years from 1971 until 1981, underlining its status as one of the key professional cameras of the era. It operates in full manual mode, with the built-in light meter. The viewfinder has the match needle system, but also displays the selected shutter speed.  It has a lovely slick wind / shutter release action, and can operate without batteries (only the meter uses battery power). Has a removable prism, and many different focusing screens available along with a huge range of professional accessories. The camera operates fully mechanically, and only uses the battery for the light meter. The F-1 is fairly sensitive to battery voltage so we recommend using either a Wein Cell or a 1.35v battery adaptor for meter accuracy. Supplied as body only. Condition Very good condition with no dents Focusing screen has a little light dust but no marks or damage.   All functions are working correctly including all shutter speeds and light meter.

A small, stylish automatic camera - easy to use and compatible with a huge range of lenses for any occasion.

It has aperture priority automatic exposure control which automatically adjusts the shutter speed based on your selected aperture, making it very easy to use for beginners while also providing control for more advanced shooting.

One of the easiest SLR cameras to use - simple controls and automatic operation. Introduced in 1983, the T50 is aimed at simplicity. It has motorized film winding with easy film loading, and operates in Program Automatic mode. This means that the camera sets both the shutter speed and aperture, so all you need to do is focus the lens and shoot. The controls on the top are minimal, so it is hard to get things wrong, and the zoom lens lets you get closer to the action. We also stock the original flash units that Canon designed specifically for this camera. Click here to view. The camera runs on 2 x AA batteries, and is an excellent starter for people getting into film photography. Camera and lens both in excellent condition, and full working order. 

Very nice example of the Nikon FE film SLR. Comes as body only or with an original 35-70 f/3.3-4.5 zoom AI lens. The FE has aperture-priority automatic, in addition to full manual exposure modes and superb build quality. Great for learning the fundamentals of photography while also having automation to capture those fleeting moments. Compatible with the massive range of high quality lenses in the Nikon range. Condition Camera body in very good condition and full working order.  Automatic metering working accurately and all shutter speeds correct. Clear viewfinder and focusing screen in good condition Lens is clear, and in excellent condition.

One of the smallest and lightest SLR cameras yet has a fully metal body, large bright viewfinder and simple controls for automatic / manual operation. Reasons why your parents probably owned one ! The ME-Super is the all-rounder member of the Pentax ‘M’ series of SLRs (which also includes the ME, MX). All three share the same lightweight and ultra-compact chassis, showcasing great build quality and lovely to use controls. The ME-Super has both automatic (aperture-priority) and manual exposure modes to cope with a wide range of situations. In aperture priority you can choose the lens aperture (which gives you control of depth-of-field) and the camera automatically sets the correct shutter speed. The clear LED display lets you know the shutter speed warns you of over / under exposure if needed. If using manual mode there are two buttons on the top of the camera for you to select shutter speed and again the viewfinder tells you when exposure is correct. Pentax put some thought into making film loading easy too – when loading film the camera has a special spool with many slots so it is faster more reliable to load film correctly. There is also a little window on the back of the camera with a striped flag that moves when you wind film on to confirm that film is indeed loaded correctly. Simple, yet very useful. The viewfinder is a joy to use – big, clear and bright. Pentax also released a separate flash to go with the ME-Super: the AF200S (we generally have these in stock). This offers auto flash exposure and also syncs with the ‘flash ready’ LED in the ME-Super viewfinder which is a nice touch. Specifications Shutter speeds from 1/2000 – 4s Simple film loading with ‘film loaded’ confirmation window Aperture priority automatic / manual exposure modes LED viewfinder display: Shutter speed Exposure compensation Over / Under exposure Flash ready indicator 50mm lens (f/1.7 and f/1.4 generally available)  Takes 2x LR44 batteries (supplied)  Condition Body in very good condition with a few light scratches from use Viewfinder is bright and clear, with a little dust as expected Fully tested with all functions in working order including shutter / film winding / exposure meter

The Pentax ME-Super s a lovely point-and-shoot film camera from the 1980s. It has automatic exposure and also full manual mode. In automatic, just select the lens aperture, focus the lens and click the shutter. This makes it very easy to use, while also giving you control over aperture which is great for portraits where a wide aperture will give you a nice blurred background ('bokeh'). The ME Super also has full manual mode, whereby you can select the aperture and also the shutter speed (using the up/down buttons on the top of the camera).  The viewfinder display shows you both the shutter speed you have selected, plus the camera's recommended shutter speed so you easily know whether you are over / under exposing. Great for creativity and great for learning more about photography.
