In reply to the discussion: I just bought a film camera. It is a Sears KSX-1000. [View all]Major Nikon
(36,818 posts)If you don't mind a good shooter that looks a little rough (and I don't), I've seen them go in the $100 - $150 range on ebay. Adorama has a decent one for $239 which I almost bought instead of the Bronica. In the end I went with the Bronica because of the lens selections. If I get hooked on medium format I may spring for a macro and/or wide angle lens, both of which will cost more than what I have invested now.
In my experience Adorama rates their stuff pretty conservatively compared to KEH. The E's I've gotten looked more like an E+. I've also returned used stuff to Adorama and it's no hassle. So if you don't like the looks, just send it back.

I've already ordered some Ilford 125, 400, and 3200 along with some Tri-X 400. I also ordered a couple of Ilford mailers, so I'm going to try their developing service.
