How does a digital age grandson cope with a manual focus film camera?

My grandson shot a Chinon CE-4 and I shot a Maxxum 7000, both using Tri-X 400 developed in 510-Pyro

Welcome back Keith. Family is the most important. Luved the video.

I actually said "bloody hell" out loud to myself on that first shot of Cameron's. Impressive stuff for a first/second timer!

Thanks Jon. I am pleased as punch that he has a good eye. Cheers, Keith

Your grandson has a good eye for composition. Well done, especially for a first time with a manual focus camera.

[@theoldunsshot1005]

Thanks Ray. I hope that with encouragement he will take it further. Cheers, Keith

He has a talent ... now he just needs to develop a passion.

[@theoldunsshot1005]

Thanks Iain. I think that is going to happen. Cheers, Keith

Very well done Cameron.

[@theoldunsshot1005]

Thanks Darren. He will be delighted with your comment. Cheers, Keith

Cameron clearly has an eye for composition. The shots he took looked pretty damn good. Both cameras and photographers did well, Keith. Looking forward to seeing what the crap/not so crap cameras can deliver.

Thanks Andrew. I really hope he gets photography bug. All he has previously shot with is his phone and I think he will be delighted with the positive response here. I'm also looking forward to getting out with the new/old cameras. Cheers, Keith

[@theoldunsshot1005]

Hello from Oregon state USA! I just found your channel from your post on 35mmc. It’s refreshing to see more gear reviews since most of the new contributors are meandering into the artsy/philosophical shooting experience side. I’m a 64 year old Pentax user. I find digital to be too easy, therefore boring. My ability taking interesting pics is lousy but I still find film cameras fascinating and once in a while I’ll screw up and actually take a good shot. You and Cameron both have the eye for it. Nice work. Keep the reviews coming!

Thanks Steve. I'm just the same as you - I enjoy the experience of shooting and processing film, using the controls on a film camera and generally having to think before pressing the shutter. If the shot is good it is an added bonus. Cheers, Keith
