My main camera is a Canon AE-1 with its advanced features at affordable prices and with a shutter speed-priority exposure mode. Call me crazy, but I have two of them, one in silver and one in black. What can I say? I love my film cameras.

My main lens is an FD 50mm 1:1.8 and a 28mm wide-angle lens. They are rather cheaper than the current EF, EFS, and mirrorless lens, which is a good point for a vintage camera. Also good for a hobbyist who wants to try something new. This may not be as vintage as most cameras out there, as it is somewhat in the middle of vintage and the current trend. It was the first camera to have a CPU. But it is a good way to get your hands into that roll of film and the black room development.

For films, I’ve played around with many but got rather comfortable with 35mm Kodak Colorplus 200 film. The batteries used are a combination of Cr123 and LR44.
