My dumb teenage ass got hyped 10 years ago by this camera, bought a whole set to a neighbour for 100€ (camera + 50mm lens + telescopic lens + flash + couple glare and uv lens + 5 films). I used 2 films and after that phones became popular to photograph. Today i digged it from my closet and giving it a try again. This video was amazing to fully understand it

Thanks for the heads up about always keeping this one in "A" I thought it would pick a shutter speed for the other apertures, but apparantly it doesn't :)

Hello! I have this camera too, it was my Dad’s, and I’ve been using it to try and learn more about photography! I also have the 70-210 f4 lense but I can’t figure out how to attach it to the camera! I’m thinking it might be broken and I just don’t know it! Any help would be appreciated!

Such a good video, everything you need to know about it and well put, also the pacing is perfect, not too breef nor too long to loose focus, will be watching more As for theT50 I've got it a couple of weeks ago, I think everything works (other than the computer that is, I'll need to shoot with it to know that), tbh I haven't been looking at it seriously but I really wanted the 50mm f/1.8 prime lens with it so I bought the whole thing for 40€. Haven't had a chance to go shoot with it yet but I guess it could be a nice camera with a cheap(er) film in it such as Gold200 because just a few days back I was at a mountain with beautiful autumn colours yet I had a black&white film in my A-1, seems like a perfect thing for a T50 in the bag for just in case. Considering I've gotten into film photography just a couple of months ago I'm quite happy with the collection so far, first got the A-1 with the zoom 35-70mm f/4 lens, then the 299T flash (for just 10€ I couldn't believe it) and now the T50, I guess the next thing would either be a 28mm FD lens or perhaps Canonet QL17 GIII, really wondering about the rangefinder experience, and the holy grail would be a FTb QL just because it's fully manual, no electronics except the lightmeter and also no plastics in the build as there is in the A and T series

Awesome stuff mate, thanks for the nice remarks and it sounds like you've got a good collection of FD Bodies and lenses. I own the QL17 GIII but the rangefinder patch is very very dim and the camera isn't really for me, I purchased it a couple years ago and have never used it. If you want a fully manual FD body I would lean more towards the Canon F-1 if you want something of High Quality. The F series uses the same lenses but was the pinnacle of Canon at the time, if you can get it with the 50mm F.14 even better!

Are they truly so unreliable? I really want to buy one but you make it sound like they're going to break after a couple of rolls of film. And they're really not that cheap on eBay right now. Body only is going for like £30 and with a lens it goes as high as £50-60. I know that's not super expensive but I don't wanna waste my money on future landfill.

Hi, The sad truth about these later electronic cameras are that they will always be destined for landfill. There's a lot of things that can go wrong and they're not economical to repair once they do. If you are set on the canon FD system I'd get an A or F series camera as they are mostly mechanical and not electronic. However, if you can find one of these that is confirmed to be working and a good price there's no reason not to go for it.

Hello, helping pay for my son’s college so we are going through a camera collection someone gave my son. We sold a broken T50 for $30 about a month ago. Batteries wouldn’t get it started with foil held in place as the door was missing. Today we found another one, door intact but batteries corroded inside. I got them out, cleaned it with alcohol, and it takes a photo. I also have the original box and all the paperwork inside. How much is that all worth, do you suspect?
@analognoise2893 Жыл бұрын
The camera itself is not worth a lot, especially if it has evidence of corrosion. My camera is pristine and was only $40 Australian dollars. The box and paperwork may boost the value up a bit but I only see it being worth maybe $100 ish. If you have found any lenses, that is where the value is.
@michaelknight1303 Жыл бұрын
@@analognoise2893 we have some lenses, I’m getting to that box soon. You mean a lens the over and above the one on the camera, I assume. There is a 1983 catalog in the box for Canon lenses, and a guide for the T244 flash, but currently I’m not sure if we actually have either. I see a T50 and T244 combo on eBay for $30. So sounds about right.

I really don't understand why anyone would want to use a fully automated camera especially in SLR format. Maybe that's why it's so cheap. I like to fk around with my pictures, long exposures, multiple flashes, multiple exposures etc. Great vid doe

Yeah for sure, essentially an SLR point and shoot. It was my first camera and I outgrew it pretty quick. These days I usually reach for the AE-1 or T90 for exactly your reasons. Thanks for watching mate.

Ebay is a great place for lenses, or just your local listing site; gumtree/facebook market etc. This is the FD 50mm f1.4, the 28mm f2.8 is also small.

To be honest, i find the t50 pretty annoying. Half of the time you will get one with a broken battery door, the others had either leaky batteries or something else fried the electronics. The viewfinder is nice and bright though. For analog beginners I‘d pretty much suggest any camera other than the t50. It is just so annoying to hunt for one in decent condition. If you spend the same amount of time looking for cameras you can easily find a canon eos body+lens, probably in better condition for the same price. It doesn’t look retro, but you can actually learn how to use a camera on them.
