Overall, I am very pleased with these images and feel that if my experience with this camera is consistent with the others out there, the AF3’s positive reputation is well deserved. Had I been in the market in 1987 for an easy to use point and shoot for family snapshots, I think this camera would have been at or near the top of my want list. And it’s the combination of these last two features, its lens and its ability to dive, that places the L35AW into the upper echelons of classic cameras. There’s no other camera like it, in fact. Competing models from Canon and Minolta and Pentax don’t really compete in a meaningful way. The equivalent machines ( the Canon Sure Shot WP-1 or AS-6, and the Minolta Weathermatic 35, and the Pentax 90-WR, respectively), either aren’t truly submersible or feature less-worthy lenses, bulkier bodies, or clumsy controls. And let’s not talk about the Hanimex Amphibean or the cumbersome plastic shells made to encapsulate non-waterproof SLRs. So this is somewhat of a review of one I kept – my favorite one: Nikon’s “Pikaichi”, the L35AF – but more like a field report on the pros and cons of other models as well. James Thorpe – thanks for adding this, I forgot! Yea, good to try and find a ISO1000 one – even if one doesn’t shoot that high it means it will be a newer camera (well, slightly)..

Camera Geekery: The Nikon L35AF - Japan Camera Hunter

James Tocchio of Casual Photophile has written a very enjoyable review in Nikon L35AF – Japan’s Pikaichi Point and Shoot. People love the MJU II. It’s a great camera, too, but I find its photos a bit flat and boring. They’re passable, but the camera doesn’t read any of its own style into them at all. I’m an editorial photographer, so I’m not looking for a Lomography camera or something like that — my photos always have to be totally accurate.And now that my pet peeve of pedantic accuracy in something as inconsequential as an article discussing decades-old film cameras has been satisfied, it’s time to more closely examine Nikon’s underwater point-and-shoot wonder-camera. What is the Nikon L35AW But really great cameras have a distinctive look and feel that’s true to the scene, but also somehow enhances it. Leica is famous for this (Google “Leica look”), and it’s why I use their cameras almost exclusively for my digital work (and pay accordingly for them).

Nikon L35AF - A review of a broken camera (that will see life Nikon L35AF - A review of a broken camera (that will see life

The price and value of vintage cameras can be a worrying topic, in the last 10 years, prices have risen dramatically due to popularity and scarcity. Hopefully, if knowledge and enthusiasm continue it may help to keep the cameras alive due to more people understanding how to fix them. Only time will tell though. How To Use The L35AF? This may sound daft, but in practice this works really well – and one huge benefit over most of the other point-and-shoots is: you will never flash people by accident because you forgot to turn it off – you will most definitely notice the Pikaichi’s flash popping up (*TSCHAKKK!*) A few months ago we talked about one of Nikon’s best point and shoot 35mm film cameras, the L35AF. This week, we’re taking a look at a very similar camera from Canon, the AF35M. With this camera, Canon essentially created the compact automated camera segment, and in many ways spurred Nikon into creating their own, venerable point-and-shoot.So let me introduce you to the Nikon L35AF – unusually for me and my adventures in film so far it’s a fully auto everything point and shoot camera, and I love it! The hardest part to get going on L35AD2 is installing the CR2032 battery to power its mostly useless date feature that would burn digits into your photos. It only shows years up to 2019, thus if you really want that on your film, it may make the most sense to just show the day of the month and time. My copy also had all of that in Japanese.

Lastly, sometimes the camera can just be completely dead or the flash can be rendered useless, these would both have to be fixed by a professional if you wanted to get them sorted. My Opinion On The L35AF

The Nikon L35af – Nikon’s first AF compact (is getting old)

This is possibly the only photo that could follow the Traction Avant! As it did in real life, of course! André Lefèbvre and Flaminio Bertoni were again the principal designers, but were joined by Paul Magès, who designed the self-levelling hydro-pneumatic suspension, one of the cars defining features. There’s no memory for this, so you will repeatedly have this dialogue – camera saying “I want to use flash”, and you responding “but I don’t want you to”.
