My latest acquisition from ebay. This is a Minolta Maxxum htsi, 35mm film camera. I just won it via an auction. It comes with a 35-70mm auto focus zoom lens. The price was a budget busting $19.99, plus $6.50 for shipping. I'm looking forward to receiving this (new to me) toy, because the weather is changing, and spring is always a great time to take pictures. I should receive it by this Friday. I'm still bidding on 2 other cameras, both of which are Minoltas (yes, I'm partial to that brand name), and I even found a couple of 70-200mm auto focus zoom lenses to bid on. If you've been viewing this blog for a while, you're aware that I don't like paying high prices for anything. So, I'm hoping to get the lenses for around $20 each. Ebay rocks!
I was shopping at Wal-mart Saturday and found they still carry (at least in my area) Fuji brand 800 speed 35mm film. The price is $10.98 for four rolls. If you've found a better price in your area, or a different store, or perhaps on line, please feel free to share the information with the rest of us. Also, if you've gotten a particularly good deal on camera equipment, go ahead and brag. The rest of us like to know where the deals are too.
