I bought my 1st SLR in 1973, but by the time 2010 rolled around, I assumed film was as dead as vinyl (I guess it was, since vinyl has made a resurgence of sorts), I had moved on to digital and I grudgingly sold my N2020 to my Barista that wanted to "see what film was all about".
By the time 2016 rolled around, I started hearing distant rumbles about film photography gaining popularity and I started missing some of the cameras I had used decades ago and looking about the internet I realized that film cameras were selling decently cheap so I slowly started regaining some of my lost gems.
A few, like my Nikkormats, EL and Yashica TLR I had kept stored away.
Fast forward to today and I am blessed to have a choice of film cameras to use when the yen to shoot analog starts tugging at my heart-strings.
I decided to dig out this cool F3 I picked up a few years ago to run a couple of rolls thru it. On inspection, the seals were iffy, so I have ordered a light seal kit, and with fresh batteries in it, this F3 is ready to produce some beautiful shots...
