Since you can shoot the ol 'analog housing to wit Price on the Internet, also former professional or semi-professional cameras (up to EOS 1!).
I use a Tamron 28-200 zoom lens to what is not the allertollste, but at first extremely useful. Especially as the lenses work well on digital SLRs and represent the most expensive on the set.
The films I let develop and scan on CD with 6 megapixels for 'ne handful of Euros. This is efficient enough for me. Repeat orders make poster-size I give if necessary the original negatives from and completed.
Now finally to the camera:
The technical data I do not rattle now down here, Canon has a great site for all models, even the instructions are there usually available.
She is often cited as the successor to the EOS 50, and further developed at the former price increase as too little. I had only 2 EOS 50 ordered both tasted, (resinous closure - see below) both defective. And then the EOS 30. It is much more massive and is better in the hand. It acts as the high 50s in every detail.
The consecutive shooting is very safe and quick, to 4 images it creates in the second. The film transport one hardly notices quickly and patented quiet - it uses no gear for Use pictures and film include a more measured, infrared controlled everything. Therefore, the camera for quite rare infrared photography is taboo.
The service is for Canon users no secret everything labeled with classically known pictograms and almost self-explanatory. The setting is done via two dials, one on the trip and one on the rear panel, which is operated in parallel with the thumb. Thus, even the manual setting of shutter speed and aperture will flash.
Who is too much, just take the green marked, automatic program, even so take great snapshots with no "idea". But Anyone choosing such a camera, but that does most to keep yourself creatively deal with photographing.
You can use the internal flash, but on occasion it should switch to a separate. The power (guide number 13) is too low in the long term.
The eye-controlled autofocus splits the community, I personally do not use it. Others are thrilled technical highlight he is all.
That the closure by prolonged disuse because of any resinous oils / glued and no longer work properly, all EOS-series seems to relate to, sometimes more, sometimes less. So for return option to buy only warranty obligations dealers !!!
If that suits, and one has a laboratory, which is digitized as described above (good own film scanner very expensive, but also feasible), you can learn very well to purchase a decent DSLR, be creative and have for little money really something fine in obvious (but with flash and zoom so half kilo ;-)
