Hello. New member here and complete beginner photographer

...hmm, won't answer that one.

Sitting on my work bench ... Canon IV SB rangefinder, Yashica-44 baby TLR, Yashica-Mat EM TLR, Yashica-Mat 124G TLR, Tokyo Optical Primo Jr baby TLR, and a Minolta-35 rangefinder with a Canon 50mm lens.

Mirrorless ... literally, digital camera with no mirror. Image through lens is processed by sensor and displayed via an LCD.
SLR ... single lens reflex, has a mirror to deflect light to viewfinder so user can see image through the lens, typically through an optical prism.

Think I found the perfect camera for me. A nice compromise between quality and price. Wooden Toy Camera, Wooden Toys, Baby Birthday Gift, Toddler Birthday Gift, Dark Blue

That's me being funny by the way.

I see that you're from Canada and I've always been curious about something I heard about Canadians. I've heard that instead of blood Canadians have maple syrup flowing through their veins. Is this true?

I'm slowly perusing keh.com that you so kindly provided the link for so the search continues.

I think it's Molson.

 

[Shutterpug]

Lol. I hope I haven't offended the Canadian. It was all meant in good fun.

No prob, was making dinner. Maple Syrup Back Bacon.

Is that what your eating or whats in your veins? Either way sounds delicious.

I wondered why this was four pages long, now I know! So since I read this first thread last, you probably already saw sources for old cameras (besides Dennis's work bench at his house).

A Pentax K1000 would be good, but not one with 'issues', get something in working condition. Might be best to try sources people suggested so you're starting out buying from a reputable seller.

I'm watching hockey tonight and apparently Canadians see in red and white.
