The Canon AE-1 Program is one of the most popular 35mm SLR’s ever produced and I still use mine nearly every day. First produced in 1981 as a successor to the AE-1, it introduced a Program AE feature. This meant that with the correct lens fitted, the camera could provide fully automatic aperture and shutter […]

Why don’t you patronise my Patreon? Well I understand if you don’t want to. The thing is, this being a creator lark is hard work and can prove expensive. However I enjoy it and some of you guys seem to as well. For a long time I resisted the idea of trying to make money

The 1981 Konica C35 EF3. One of a range of C35 point & shoot 35mm cameras that were made by Konica from 1968 until 1984. They started as rangefinders and later autofocus, but this is one of the zone-focusing models. Mine is black, but they came in various colours and now seem to becoming popular

CreatorHub is the place to be…If you’re a creator anyway. One of the biggest challenges faced by anyone who creates content on the web, is getting noticed. It’s a little like Catch 22. You need to be popular to be seen, but need to be seen to become popular. When I started my YouTube channel
The Kodak Instamatic was a very popular range of cameras. So popular, that the word ‘instamatic’ is still often used as a generic term for any point and shoot camera. Made from 1963 by Kodak in the US, UK and elsewhere, they were a range of inexpensive easy to use small cameras. I remember my
