Thrifting is only getting harder and harder as more people are starting to hop on the film wagon BUT that doesn't mean there aren't any deals to be had out there! Go out with a mindset thinking you won't be able to find anything and you will eventually come across a treasure.

What was your best thrift find?! DROP a LIKE if you enjoyed the video and subscribe for more thrifting videos!! #MinoltaGang

[@ryanh3635]

best thrift find: my mom found a original Leica iiib from 1939 with original Summitar lens. She payed 40 bucks, Its worth about 900.

[@joshrock]

I think My best thrift store find was last summer o got a Canon canonet ql17 gii for $5

[@AdamRedmond88]

I also found an OG OneStep recently- but my favorite thrift finds are my Polaroid Spectra AF and Sun 660. Point-n-shoot wise, I've gotten a lot of use out of my Canon AF35ML (with the bangin' f1.9 40mm lens!), and Sure Shot Z135 (affectionately named "ZoomBoy").

[@acidsnow5915]

Mju II for ten euros :)

[@manymartinez6430]

Great video man! I really suggest taking that One step for a shoot. Especially portraits. Film packs are less than $25 and may seem a little pricey but shooting one is a fun experience. (I have around 7 Polaroids 600s and 1 sx-70. They are a lot of fun. #MinoltaGang.

[@edpavez]

I always see people from the US going to thrift shops and getting amazing cameras for just a few dollars. That Polaroid looked stellar. Nice video, man. :)

[@Peppermint1]

Those are the 'new' polaroids, made by another company, not the good old ones. These newer ones don't get good reviews. But the main problem is the film for these, most brands that are making polaroid films these days have quality problems, check out the reviews on Amazon

I always hit the local goodwill, they very often have decent point and shoots, just today I got an olympus mju II zoom, and an olympus stylus 115 zoom for $2 each. Not bad.

[@chewychew8519]

Olympus stylus epic is not the one with the 115 zoom, he got the zoom in the opening not like on the zoom ones, which have the zoom going out of the top corner

Film cameras anyone? Hidalgo Quiapo and some of your local ukays. Yesterday, I just found a vivitar point&shoot lomo in kalentong for ₱120

[@samthhecreator]

man the thrift stores in the us are no joke i would never find anything that cheap where i live 😭

[@aspartamelover]

@@Jk-cx7ko i live in Berlin, and it's so overpriced here...I found things, that are more expensive in the thrift than the original was (like an old forever21 longsleeve, that they tried to sell for 15 EUR..)...cameras...forget it..went to the flea a couple of weeks ago, ad they asked 130 for an olympus point and shoot...

[@nicholassmith7723]

Bruh where do you live?? I've never seen so many cameras in a thrift store at one time.

[@DaleDriven]

Nicholas Smith he’s from NorCal I think.

[@davel9792]

Looks like EcoThrift in Hayward

[@Peppermint1]

You can't imagine the work conditions behind these thrift stores, the shipping and sorting of the items in the warehouses. Good to keep in mind

[@danburrill8716]

In the UK, car boot sales are the place to do this. Last weekend alone, I found the following: Ricoh 500GX w/ Vivitar flash for £1, Olympus AF-10 Super for £1, Praktica BCA w/ 35-70mm zoom, case and 2004 expiry colour film for £3, Yashica MF-1 w/ case for £2.50, and a mint Canon Sureshot Max w/ case for £2. All work, although the Ricoh and Yashica need new light seals (well within my capabilities). Not quite as insane as the Yashica T4 for £1 I found a month or two ago, but a good haul nontheless. :)

[@HikeSoloOutdoors]

I know this video is 5 years old, but I just wanted to drop in and say that those were some awesome finds! My first film camera ever was an Olympus Infinity Jr. that I got at a thrift store like 25 years ago, and about 2 years ago my dad snagged me that same Nikon One Touch for $2 at a thrift store. Crazy both those cameras are going for between $100 and $300 on the used market now. Sad that I sold the Infinty Jr. years ago, but still using the One Touch all the time. BTW, that's the Nikon L35AF2, which can do up to 1600 speed film.

[@alexcheetah79]

I would have grabbed the Elan ii especially with eye control, those are becoming valuable.

[@Jk-cx7ko]

Today I found a Yashica Zoomate 70 in the trash. It works perfectly, just needed to put in some batteries

[@robertknight4672]

I have an Infinity Jr. Mine doesn't have the lcd in the back. Fully automatic flash. When I was in my local Savers (Value Village) their was an ad saying the inspect every item they receive. I don't think the inspect cameras, I sometimes have to clean corrosion off of battery terminals.

[@octobercoffee2714]

What stores do you go to for thrift shopping for cameras?

[@behindeachfilmgrain]

It’s a “The Brick” Argus C3 35mm rangefinder! Super sharp images comes out of that brick body! It’s super dope!

[@KingJvpes]

LANG! This was the only c3 i've ever seen in that color way

[@thedeafgenius]

Looks as if someone really loved the camera enough to customize it. Those are usually well taken care of.

[@behindeachfilmgrain]

Some of the models came in different colors :)

[@chrissybabyist]

You are so lucky to have such great thrift stores. I also just purchased a Pentax IQZoom EZY. Loving it.

[@depotmsa2362]

sick, the one-touch came after the l35af the difference is the original L35AF lens was five elements in four groups, while the newer L35AF2 lens has four elements in three groups, I personally enjoy the look of the l35af

[@btrdangerdan2010]

Marsand cases and pouches are the best I have one as for my Canon Ftb bundle.

[@JDubyafoto]

No good thrifts around my area (I'm frowning right now), but a good video anyway! Volume was a little low compared to othger videos I'm watching, but I could still hear you. Good to see Drew on screen again! Hi Drew!

[@aokcamera]

Yo that ferret centipede was wild what the hell lol😂 Minolta gang! 🙌📷

[@TheReclaimer2557]

So glad you found a Polaroid OneStep Original dude those cameras are a must have for camera collectors now, and and the price you paid for it that’s a steal right there great find man, fingers crossed you find a Polaroid SX-70 in a thrift store one day. #Minoltagang

[@ExistUNDRGROUND]

Always love your thrifting videos, man. Keep up the great work.

[@jensritchie]

should come down to San Diego I saw about 2 dozen point and shoots recently most were digital, but a few were film and one was Nikon. Can't remember what the model was but it looks similar to the one in the intro of this video The Black Nikon not the Big SLR

[@nixm1013]

I have an Olympus AF10 Quartz. It looks like the Infinity Jr. that you have there

[@mateoguevara1153]

YES the infinity jr is a killer cam. regret selling mine, I just developed a few rolls from it and the photos look so good. keep that one close

[@theunionbeats1]

you should actually shoot with each of them and do a comparison? thatd be dope

[@vangstr]

Great find! And yes stores are jacking up their prices from us bargain hunters.

[@EstebanGarcia-kn5rp]

where is that store?, maybe you know stores in new york like that one where I can find a Nikon L35AF and also a good but cheap scanner, also could you recommend me some scanners please? thank you! great vids

[@robertdominguez6002]

Got an Olympus Infinity Stylus for $3 at Goodwill with a roll of film in it. Works great.

[@samcoleman8275]

Greetings, Sam here. I enjoy your videos and it has inspired me to get out and to do some thrifting. During my thrifting I came across a Yashica TL Electro with a 50mm lens for $18.00. Many thanks.

[@hardene8888]

I'm really loving this portion of your videos! I like Thrift shops! .... Good Catch man! everything is delicious!

[@evelasq1]

There are lot of F mount lenses available new and used that should work with the Nikon N60. That Polaroid is original from the late 1970s and early 1980s. I remember Ricoh being a big manufacturer in copiers. You should of snag that camera because it has that big lens for more light to come into the film. Peace, Flood!

[@markshabert5865]

the argus was the best camera there, you youngsters got a lot to learn.

[@monodistortion]

Haha, not for $34!

Wish we had thrift stores like this in the UK, we have similar things called charity shops but you’ll hardly ever find cameras, at least I never see them

[@danburrill8716]

I have more success at car boot sales than charity shops - a lot of the charity shops have cottoned on that film cameras are worth more than a couple of quid and put them on eBay to get the best prices for them.

Ahh right thanks, i'll have to look around
