Hello all,
I am new here. A friend recommended me to join Talk Photography after I was crying about two lost bids on ebay over the past two weeks.
I have been looking to buy a film camera kit and well, have been really unlucky loosing out by £2 every time! :shake: A kit I saw had a Zuiko f1.4 50mm and a fish eye that I was hoping to use to learn taking more artistic pictures on film.
Anyway, she said this would be a good place to start finding more about film photography, kits/lenses/accessories/bodies and prices. So far I am looking at the all-mechanical Olympus OM-1n and I settled for buying this over the Minolta SRT-101.
Looking at the stuff on ebay and around the net, it seems that Zuiko fish eyes don't come around often and cheap! I am really gutted the kit went. How much should I pay for the body with a standard Zuiko f1.8 50m? how much should I be looking to pay for a fish eye? Is there any where else I can get these older stuff besides ebay? (hate shopping on ebay :bang. I looked at KEH but delivery is so expensive!
Many thanks guys!
