Classic Camera Revival - Episode 29 - Clan O'Canon

The gang tackles several cameras from the Canon line, and we quickly realize that between us we don't have much experience with shooting Canon! This episode covers such Cameras as the F-1, F-1N, EOS A-2, and the FTb. And if you're curious about the episode graphic, well that's the original Canon logo from 1934 when the company was known as Camera Kwanon. The name "Canon" wasn't adopted until 1935.

Classic Camera Revival - Episode 27 - Return of the Samurai

Once again the gang dives into the rabbit hole of Nikon this time tackling the mid-20th Century line of Nikkormat cameras.

It was bound to happen; the gang tackles the iconic Hasselblad 500 series or V-Series. We are mostly focusing on the original 500c and 500c/m. But don't worry, this isn't a fanboy episode. We do get rather critical of the camera.

Classic Camera Revival - Episode 22 - Cream of the Crap

As much as we like to talk about cameras and films that we're fans of, sometimes you just have to let it all out. So we're talking cameras and films that we just can't bring ourselves to like.
