Canon Sure Shot 35mm point and shoot film camera with 38 mm f/2.8 Lens

Product Information

The camera sets your shutter speed and exposure via the light meter on the front, so making sure the flash doesn’t fire is really the only thing to keep an eye on when shooting. As I shoot street photography, I like a camera that doesn’t get in my way as I try to capture scenes that are here now but won’t be a second later. Want a compact fun but good shooter get a Olympus XA2 or LC-A or if AF is your bag try its big brother the Canon Sure shot 60. com are the exclusive property of the named author (except where stated otherwise) and are protected by copyright. It is a bit bulky mind but if you want and easy to hold camera for fun shooting to give to your kids or an elderly relative with arthritis and big hands who just wants to take snaps it may be perfect.

Markings on the top of the lens barrel indicate our approximate focal length in demarcations of 50mm, 70mm, and 85mm (the resting wide focal length of 38mm is not marked).For example, looking at the shot of the gentleman at the cafe table you can almost make out the fine weave of the cushions we can see to the left. Ultimately I decided to sell the Canon and keep the Minolta as the 27mm lens was more unusual than the Canon's 35mm (you know how many 35mm lensed compacts I have! A couple of years back I actually managed to get one of these past the door staff at a packed Molchat Doma gig in London’s O2 Kentish Town after I told them it was film and I couldn’t record the show. Everything on the right are raw pictures, and everything on the left are edited according to my preferences 😜.

I'm sure it would have been less of a 'loss' had it been an unpressured, more casual affair with simple point and shoot. It is compact but not uncomfortably so, and the brick-like shape with the matte finish and the small ridge on the front provide a really steady grip.This multi-purpose switch also opens and closes the lens cover, and when toggled further, fits the built-in soft filter over the lens. And unlike so many of the cameras of the point and shoot class, the XL won’t fit into a pocket or seemingly disappear when not in use. It also shows you where the edge of your frame will be so that you can line up your shots accurately.
