5 comments about Canon Sure Shot 115u 35mm Camera.
- This camera is great for people who perfer film over digital. I bought it for a photography class and liked it so much I use it everywhere. Its size is ideal for fitting into any pocket. It has exelent zoom. It winds your film automaticly when putting the film in, after taking each exposer and winds all the way back once you have taken the last picture. The flash and shutter can easily be ajusted. You are able to set it so the date and/or time will be printed on the negative. It includes a timer which can release the shutter 10 seconds after pushing the button. Great for vacations or any other occasion. Uses any kind of 35mm film.
- The Canon Sure Shot 115 w/Zoom is a great choice for the price! We took all our vacation picture with it right after getting the camera and were afraid of what we might get. We were pleasantly surprised. The features and zoom were easy to use and the quality of the pictures and lighting were excellent. We will use this camera for a long time to come.
- This is a very easy to use, lightweight camera. I wish I had bought one years ago. The pictures are very crisp and true to color.
- I was slightly disappointed as it was bigger and bit clumsier than my old Sure shot. I was pleased to be able to buy it as they are all digital now.
I was shocked that I had to go and pay £20 to pick it up from the parcel depot and thought it was a hoax but it was customs and exise duty.Apart from all that I am pleased to have a straight forward easy to use camara as a standbye that won't need charging all the time or run out of memory etc.
- This is great for a basic, easy to use camera. The only drawback is that it is not digital!

5 comments about Canon Elph 370Z APS Camera Kit.
- Small, convenient, and easy to use. Pictures are good. I had the Flashing H problem also. I took out the battery and the film. Turned the camera on, snapped a couple of shutter releases to drain any leftover power. Put the battery back in and loaded a new roll of film. The H went away. I had tried this a couple of times before; but I set the date and time prior to loading the film and the H was still there. I don't know if this will work for your camera, but it's worth a try.
- I bought this camera in August 1998 after my Minolta 35mm X-700 was stolen. The best thing about this camera is the amazing pictures I've taken with it. After 15 years of using full manual settings with the very large and heavy Minolta, the automatic features and portability can't be beat for the picture quality. I can put it on my belt with the case that comes with it and hike the planet. I've taken this little wonder on numerous hiking trips in the Southwest. Never a problem since its so light weight and readily available on your waist for those shots that usually come up all of a sudden. I typically shoot 1 to 2 rolls a day on average 2 to 3 week trips. I've been doing this since I got it and the camera is finally showing the mileage of several thousand photos. The shutter doesn't always fire when the camera is turned on and I must close and re-slid the switch but it still works. I'm considering another one since I looked at the Canon Z3 but it doesn't have the lens quality of the 370Z. The one and only problem I've had with this camera is when I tried to get enlargements from the APS 25mm film. It just doesn't compare to 35mm once you enlarge beyond an 11 x 14 print. Otherwise, for the average user, this is a great camera for the price. I paid $285 plus tax back in '98 when it first came out. As far as that other reviewer saying that the shutter was delayed after hitting the button, the reason was probably low light. This camera has a built in feature of sensing the dim lighting conditions and slowing the shutter to allow more light to hit the film thereby slowing the shutter. I've gotten some blur in pictures with dim lights but it was only because I wasn't thinking about it and used an unsteady hand. This camera is definitely 5 stars, especially now that the price has dropped !
- My wife loves this camera. She uses it for scrapbooking and it takes good pictures. We like the APS because in one package you get Panoramic and the normal sized pictures. Plus the film is idiot proof in that you can only put it into the camera one way; and you can take the film out mid-way thru and put it back in and the pictures won't be used; and there is an indicator on the film that tells you if the filme has been developed yet or not. Pretty much an idiot proof camera.
- I bought the Canon Elph 370Z in 2000. After 3 years of heavy use the camera had to go in for servicing last summer because an error message (H) had appeared in the LED. The cost for repairs was about 1/3 of the original price. Several months later the same thing reoccurred and Canon fixed it free of charge. This is the first camera that I've ever had repaired. All my previous cameras have also eventually broke down from use. But this is the only one that I liked enough to have fixed. Photo quality is excellent considering the size of the camera, plus the convenience of APS. The quality of the camera is very good, too.
- Small camera, very slimlined and easy to carry. I purchased refurbished and everything is working perfectly. I only wish the zoom was a little stronger, but overall an excellent camera.

5 comments about Canon EOS Rebel Ti 35mm SLR Kit w/ 28-90mm Lens.
- I love this camera so much! I got it as a graduation gift in May of 2004. I took this camera with me on my european excursion. It takes beautiful pictures and is very very easy to operate. I would recomend this camera to anyone who's looking for a quality 35mm with manual and automatic controls. I love this camera!
- I've owned the Ti for two years. I've taken many good photos over the past two years, and really enjoyed the quality of close up pictures with the included lens. I have been disappointed a few times with taking landscape night photos. Even when the camera is sitting still on a flat surface, its still hit and miss with a long exposure.
Recently, the very tiny plastic piece that latches the film cover closed broke, rendering the camera useless. Once more it didn't break from a hard drop, or massive hit. It simply broke after I set it down on a table. Even though I've had the camera for two years, I'd say I've only gone through less than two dozen rolls of film. So it can't have broken from excessive use either.
Luckily I bought an extended warranty and will not be out $300, but now I think I may make the move to digital. If you want to stick with 35mm, the Canon rebel series is good while it lasts, but be sure to protect your investment with an extended warranty.
- I got this camera on my birthday in 2001 based on the local camera dealer advice. I wanted a camera to take good action pictures for my boys karate stuff. It takes great pictures. I have been very happy with my pictures. The last 3 years I have been doing powerpoint presentations for our local school system and the pictures looks great on the big screen. I go to costco to get the film developed and asked for the digital cd. I when I compare my pics to someone elses digital pics in the PPT, my pictures out ways theirs by a far. I am currently looking for a digital camera (processing film gets costly when I do alot of PPT) that will get give me the same result as my canon but right now I will stick with my canon.
- I've only have my Canon Ti for a week and I've already developed and purchased additional film (B&W). I was instantly impressed and amazed at the quality of pictures that I, as an amateur (and first-time camera owner) could produce. The color, sharpness, and realism portrayed in the film, along the light-weight, durable, and attractive camera body makes it a popular model, with no shock.
I did a lot of personal research on modern day SLR 35mm cameras before I made my purchase and my eyes were instantly fixated on this model. The only reason that I did not give this camera a full 5-star review is that this is not the best camera on the market. Dispite the excellent monetary value, depth of use (a 60-page manual included!), and film quality that is produced, this camera is not the best out there, and obviously lacks digital properties. However, being a college student, and having a film camera in mind, this was the best choice for me; I'm a proud new Canon owner, I don't regret my purchase in the slightest, and I can't wait to take more pictures.
All I personally recommend is: look for a better deal through Amazon's private dealers or on eBay, read the instruction manual, don't be intimidated, and have fun...this camera takes great pics, good shooting.
~S
- This is an excellent camera. It has helped me learn more about photography. The preset modes allow you to just point and shoot when you're in a rush, and the manual mode lets you get more creative.
fast, accurate, versatile, durable. little bulky, but all SLR's are.

3 comments about Canon EOS Elan 7ne SLR Camera (Body Only).
- Okay, first off, I'd like to say that this is my first AF SLR--I stepped up from my dinosaur of a camera, Canon AE-1 manual focus, and right now I am quite overwhelmed by all the features in this little thing. I'm still in the learning stages of all this technology but let me tell you this, I am having fun! It amazes me that Canon can offer quite an impressive camera for the price.
I just received my first few rolls from the developer and the pictures came out amazing--so clear and the colors are very vibrant. Just to let you know, I'm using the 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens. I took the suggestions of many and passed up on the "kit" lens and I'm sure glad I did so. I would highly recommend the f/3.5-4.5 lens, but unfortunately for the rest of you, Amazon has discontinued it. But you could order it from one of the many other photo shops (B&H, Adorama, etc).
Do I have any regrets on this purchase? Absolutely not! I love this camera and even though I've owned it for less than a month, I'm actually thinking about stepping up to the EOS 3 and using this as a backpacking/hiking body. Hmm...what to do, what to do? Do I purchase another body or start a collection of L-series glass? ...that is the question.
- I am enjoying my new Canon EOS Elan. I find it comfortable to hold and easy to use. I have not yet had the opportunity to try out all the features, but the few films I have exposed in auto mode and had developed satisfy my needs at this point. The rewind mechanism is VERY quiet which is nice if you plan to use the camera at a public event.
- I bought this camera in 2002 (when it was the Elan 7e), the only difference is body texture, lit display, and a slightly faster autofocuser. The camera works great and the pictures are great. It takes 4 fps. I don't use this camera anymore since going digital with my EOS 40D but if I would recommend a film camera at a good price, this would be the camera. If you still use film, this is a camera that is hard to beat at the price.

5 comments about Canon Sure Shot Z180u Date Body.
- I'm pleased with the purchase. I bought this camera just under two years ago when I was getting ready for a trip abroad.
I spent six months in England, with five weeks travelling around Europe with this camera in its case on my belt. It's very sturdy if nothing else, between the trains, planes, hostels, and general bustle I'm very pleased with how well it held up. Nothing on it broke.
I probably took at least 400 pictures during my trip, if not more. Sure I've had to swap out batteries on one or two occasions in the two years I've had it, but my general feeling is that the batteries are holding up quite well.
The zoom on this camera is very nice. It's one of the better zooms I've seen on a simple camera of this type, or at least it was back when I bought it.
It also has several features that older film cameras do not, such as a timer that you can set before running to get in your own picture, or settings to take "Portraits" or "Night shots."
I know that this camera cannot compare to professional cameras, I know that it doesn't have all the frills of the new digital cameras, and I am not trying to compare it to those. I'm not a professional photographer, so I don't know how to use a camera with exchangable lenses and whatnot. I don't want a digital for personal and professional reasons. For a traditional film camera, this one is the best I've ever used.
BOTTOM LINE: Good quality photos, a sturdy build, excellent zoom lens, useful and easy to use features, and long battery life make this camera an excellent choice if you want a traditional film camera with a few perks.
- Very good camera. This was a present for my wife as she needed a new camera. She picked it out and liked that it came as a complete kit. Directions can be hard to follow at times and could be printed larger. Takes some getting used to. Zoom lense works great and takes good pictures. Where the on-off button is so close to the shutter, you have to be careful that you don't accidentally shut the camera off. She is very satisfied with it.
- I just bought this camera before making a trip to Disney and I absolutely love it. My pictures were just beautiful. They were very clear and very sharp. This is a really nice camera for anyone.
- This is an excellent film camera with a long zoom that comes in handy. I have had pictures developed in digital format (on CD) that rival a good digital camera. Having the date imprinted on your photos is a nice feature to help you remember when they were taken, years later. The only difficulty I have had is that the camera does not seem to accept 800 speed film. However, it works just fine with 200 or 400 speed.
- I was looking for the longest 35mm film zoom camera that was available for sale to the average person. I own a Konica 35mm film SLR camera with removable lenses, but, I wanted a long range zoom camera for the convience factor. The Canon Z180u zoom camera has the longest zoom lenses available for sale; 38mm to 180mm. It has many options--flash or no flash; manual or automatic; "redeye" reduction; date imprint to include year, month, day, hour and minute. Compact,sturdy, well made, durable, with a nice camera case, multi-language instructions, and an automatic lenses cover when the camera is turned off. The camera is easy to use and after a few minutes of reading the instructions, almost anyone should have no trouble taking pictures like a professional. The eyepiece to look at the subject being photographed is excellent. Canon is trusted name in cameras and the Z180u lives up to the reputation. Due to the fact that digital is rapidly replacing film, this camera is becoming very hard to find. I got mine at Cameforless in New York City, NY USA through Amazon. Com. I recommend highly the Canon Sure Shot Z180u Date Camera, Cameforless, and Amazon. This is a great camera for those film pictures that range from close-up to long-range. Get it while you can, because when they are gone, that's it.

5 comments about Canon Rebel T2 35mm SLR Camera with the EF 28-90mm f/4-5.6 III Zoom Lens.
- Plain and simple, I LOVE THIS CAMERA!!!
I had always wanted to own a 35 mm camera, and I had always been impressed by Canon cameras, so, I bought the T2. LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!!
Great pictures, ease of operation, price was great (and because Digital is cost-prohibitive right now, this film camera was perfect!!!), and, I got it in less than 1 week! Great camera, great shipping time, great price.
I'm pleased!
- I am very pleased with this camera. I am taking my first real photography class and this camera is perfect for such a class and for taking photos once I've finished the semester. I don't have to spend precious time trying to figure out which knob to turn or button to push. A quick read of the manual lets you know the basic functions and the camera really does a lot of the brain-work. The manual mode lets me fool around with things to get certain moods or feelings and the pictures are turning out great. A lot of the students are having a hard time reading their cameras' meters, but this camera's meter is really simple to read and very easy to see. The price was great and the quality is fantastic!
- so i was in a pickle when trying to decide buying new lenses for my old canon ae-1 or just buying this so i can use all my digital lenses (EF canon lenses and Di tamron lenses) and my bounceable flash...i chose the latter and have not been disappointed. i got the date body so i could also use my little remote. it has the look and feel of my rebel xti. i also bought the battery grip which adds functionality and a certain "cool factor" to it. thing is, the grip doesn't have the exposure adjustment wheel/button, just the exposure button. but i'll knock down the battery grip's rating (also purchased on amazon), not the t2's rating.
i was originally looking at the rebel k2, but after testing one out at the local camera shop, i decided to spend a few more bucks to get the t2. the k2 felt a bit "cheap" and it didn't have a few things i find important in a camera such as the DOF preview button and a built-in viewfinder diaptor adjustment.
since the camera's newer, it was nice not having to advance the film after every shot. but then again, that can be found on any of the newer cameras. it's just a nice perk since i was 'upgrading' from an ae-1.
i'm using this camera for school since they're still teaching the film process. i'm satisfied with the camera. this, coupled with canon's nifty fifty f/1.8 is a great setup! get it now! :)
- My daughter rated this product as four stars. She just started photography classes at her school. I think it is a good camera for the beginning photographer.
- Nice camera but it seems to take mirrored images. in other words the pics it takes are reversed. ????

5 comments about Canon EOS Rebel G SLR Camera Kit with 35-80mm Lens.
- This is a great all around camera. Takes beautiful pictures. I bought this camera for my college photography class, and it takes better pictures that all the other student's more expensive cameras. Wow!
- I bought this camera prior to going on deployment in the Navy back in 1997 (I think). The camera was to replace my father's Minolta X-370 that I had used for years. I liked the available features and the price.
The camera has performed admirably over the last several years. Whether used for astral photography or high speed/low light action it does everything that I need it to do and does it well. I've taken pictures that were nothing short of spectacular in many ways.
The Rebel G's fully automatic mode is adequate for good pictures and shooting multiple objects, especially if shooting in a hurry. The portrait and close-up mode both work wonderfully. I've used this camera and the 35-80 mm lens to take pictures of flowers from about 8 inches that came out splendid. I've also taken landscapes from the top of Mount Mitchell and been similarly impressed.
The automatic focus is quick and accurate, with a few exceptions that are easily compensated for by the user. The auto focus is simply not reliable when tracking moving objects and seems to have difficulty with light-colored objects in front of a solid white background. I have not found this to be a concern or challenge in taking good pictures.
In nearly all cases, the automatic exposure has been dead on, with the only exception being extremely low light conditions, which most users aren't likely to be worried about. I've used both print film and slide film (which requires much more accurate exposure) and the auto exposure has been right almost every time. Occasionally, the colors/shadows around a person when taking a slide exposure can fool the auto exposure. Most users won't worry about this because not many people shoot on slide film. Under low light conditions, regardless of film ISO being used, it's best to simply go with the manual settings and overexpose 1 to 2 stops. This is easy to do because of the exposure meter in the viewer bar.
Recently, my camera required some minor work. It was scratching the negatives as they passed through the body. I sent it out for repair, and the pressure plate (which serves to hold the negative flat and at the correct focusing point) was adjusted. Well, I ran two rolls of film through and had them developped to check the repair. Initially, I thought that the camera still had issues (leaving very faint lines on top of picture, but only under low-light with 800 speed film), but I discovered that the culprit was a bad shop (they were scratching my negatives and probably their printer was low on ink, creating the faint lines I saw. Total cost of repair was 65 dollars.
Please note that I've had this camera for several years, and it's been to Europe once, the Virgin Islands twice, dropped a few times, rained on more, left out in the cold overnight for celestial photography, and travelled with me up and down the eastern seaboard, all the while taking several thousand shots.
I strongly recommend this camera to anyone considering it, but would also recommend evaluating the newer Rebel T2 and K2 at the same time. If you can get this one on a deal well below retail and it appears to be in good shape, I would expect it to be a worthwhile investment.
- I bought this baby used for 40 bucks it was in mint condition. I read the reviews here and most didnt like the lens that came with the camera. I went out and got 2 other lenses a Canon 50mm f1.8 and a Sigma 70 - 300mm f4-5.6. Needless to say the pictures came out GREAT!! I had to get used to the fact that when you load the film it goes all the way to the end of the roll and shoots backwards. You get 24 exposures, when i loaded my other cameras manually you could squeeze in a extra frame or two. I dont mind about that this is a great camera if you are just starting out to shooting with film.
- I got my Rebel G 10 years ago when it was over $200 bucks at a major department store. I've been using it ever since.
It's sturdy and feels solid in my hands. The click that it makes isn't too loud but when you place your film in...it sure is pretty loud as it advances. I've used it in all types of weather and lighting situations and it still works fine. (I've done well to protect it from moisture and extreme heat too.) I've invested in a (hybrid digital/film) good lens an now my photo options are expanded. I use the original lens in situations where I can hand my camera to a friend and have them take the picture with the trusty green box (amateur) setting. There are several settings that Canon has on this camera that help you easily compose for the right situation.
I'm not fond of the pop up flash as it can be distracting and does not produce lots of light in very dark situations. But good thing it gives you the option of adding another flash of your own onto it's hot shoe.
Sometimes the auto-focus is a bit slow though it may be that my batteries are getting low. I rely on the manual focus. The batteries are what hinder me a bit since they are about $12 for a pair of them.
Personally, I've had good experiences with Canon. And this camera is no different. It can be used by a beginner or with somebody who knows their way around a camera. This is also a great student camera since you can switch to a manual mode. (I've used it for class, it was great!)
- I bought this film camera to use with my Canon digital XTi. I like to shoot both film and digital, and these two cameras use the same lenses, which is a plus. I do a lot of photo documentation, and with a negative in hand, there is less chance to claim that something has been 'photoshopped'. This is important in my line of research.
The camera itself is a delight to use, and is light weight. The AF is flawless and very fast. The viewfinder is bright, and the mirror and shutter are relativly quiet, another important quality in my line of work. The grip provides a secure feel, again, which is important in the field.
I would recomend the camera body without hesitation. The lens on the other hand is OK, but not great. I do not like lenses without a metal mounting bayonet, so I ditched the kit lens, and replaced it with the better lenses made by Canon. I want a tight, vibration free mount, and I do not trust plastic lens mounts.
In all, this was a great bargan, and have already shot several rolls of film with it.

5 comments about Canon EOS Rebel 2000 35mm SLR Camera Kit with 28-80mm Lens.
- I've had my camera for 1 year 4 months The camera did everything I wanted it to do and more until 2 months after the warranty ran out. Then, attempting to eject the flash card, the button went into the camera body and hasn't been seen since.
Canon has had the camera (along with the $300+ it will cost to repair it) for 45 days so far and no camera or word as to when it will be returned.
So beware of the cf card button!
Otherwise? 5 stars!
- I bought this camera for my wife for Christmas 04' I thought I ordered it too late for it to arrive on time for Christmas, but these people are great! they got it to me on time and we love this camera we use it all the time - we have several accs. item for it and the quality of the picture are wonderful . Thanks Mark Christian
- I have had this camera for about 4 yrs now - I take it on all my business travels.
Whenever I get a chance to go out on on the weekends, I take this camera and my Sony camcorder in my backpack, roam the streets of the new city and shoot pictures. The pictures that I shoot from this camera are just awesome - no matter whatever experiment I do with it.
Most useful features:
1. Aperture control with Depth of field preview
- Lets to focus the foreground and blur the background
2. Shutter speed control upto infinity
- Lets you control the amount of time for which the shutter can be kept open
3. It is pretty rugged, dont try dropping it :) I have used it to shoot pics from 'Maid of the mist' in Niagara falls and I almost thought that I was going to lose it. But it worked liked a charm
Negatives
- Bulky, but you will get used to it, it always gets attention
- Cost of developing film - What I do these days is to just get the photos on a CD, then develop only those photographs that are good.
Why is this camera better than a Digital Camera ?
- If you are spending $200 on a Digital Camera, I feel that the SLR is way far too ahead of any Digital camera in that price range
- If you are spending $1000 on a Digital Camera, a Digital SLRs are very mature today - worth buying.
Ideally, I would buy this SLR, take this whenever I really want to take good photographs, then I would also want to have a $100 Kodak Digital Camera for casual shots. This would mean an ideal combination.
If you are buying this SLR, you can also consider buying a Film/Photo scanners (available for less than $150 now) - which lets you scan the negatives/positives without even going for a cheap CD print. From the reviews what I read on amazon, these scanners must be amazing.
- I had this camera for years before it was stolen and I replaced it with a digital Canon SLR. I am still amazed at the abuse I put my Rebel 2000 through. It has a nice light body, a great auto feature, and easy-enough to use manual functions. And because of the popularity (and rightly so) of digital these days, you can pick one up for a fantastic price, even brand spanking new.
- Unlike a lot of reports about grainy pictures and what not; this camera is really top notch! This is my first camera and I got some really great shots already, the grainy complaint was probably due to people using a higher ISO and not knowing much about camera settings. You'll definitely want a zoom lens though, the 28-80mm is nice for normal everyday things, but if you really want to experiment try looking for a 28-300 or even a 70-300mm lens.
Definitely recommended for amateurs.

The only difficulty I have had is that the camera does not seem to accept 800 speed film. However, it works just fine with 200 or 400 speed.
- I was looking for the longest 35mm film zoom camera that was available for sale to the average person. I own a Konica 35mm film SLR camera with removable lenses, but, I wanted a long range zoom camera for the convience factor. The Canon Z180u zoom camera has the longest zoom lenses available for sale; 38mm to 180mm. It has many options--flash or no flash; manual or automatic; "redeye" reduction; date imprint to include year, month, day, hour and minute. Compact,sturdy, well made, durable, with a nice camera case, multi-language instructions, and an automatic lenses cover when the camera is turned off. The camera is easy to use and after a few minutes of reading the instructions, almost anyone should have no trouble taking pictures like a professional. The eyepiece to look at the subject being photographed is excellent. Canon is trusted name in cameras and the Z180u lives up to the reputation. Due to the fact that digital is rapidly replacing film, this camera is becoming very hard to find. I got mine at Cameforless in New York City, NY USA through Amazon. Com. I recommend highly the Canon Sure Shot Z180u Date Camera, Cameforless, and Amazon. This is a great camera for those film pictures that range from close-up to long-range. Get it while you can, because when they are gone, that's it.

Purchase Information
5 comments about Canon EOS Rebel K2 35mm SLR Camera with EF 28 to 90mm II USM Lens.
- We went back and forth between a film and digital camera. We decided on the Canon Rebel Date Camera due to the quickness of the shutter since we have small children. I did not want the delay a digital camera has and did not have the money to spend for a quick shutter digital camera. Our pictures come out crystal clear and we get all kinds of rave reviews on the pictures we do take with our camera. This is the 2nd camera that we have bought that is Canon and have nothing but good things to say about them. I do wish they came with a camera bag - but we can buy that separately.
- I was looking for a film 35mm SLR and found this one on Amazon, I love it, I have the Canon Rebel XT and wanted a Canon SLR. I love how the film automatically advances the film and displays how much film you have left, and the speed of the film. I also like this camera because you can set it to AV/TV/M and play with the apertures, and shutter speed, and if you don't want to use these features you can set it to the basic zones where everything is automatic. I am still getting used to the settings but my pictures so far have developed very nicely.
- Easy to use, takes good pictures. Can't wait to get more lens to try it out in farther pictures. Instrution book was eay to follow. Everyone in the family can use this camera.
- I have been using this camera for a high school photography class, and it is definitely well worth the price. The lens it comes with is great. The camera is extremely user friendly. Though it is plastic, it feels very durable, and has survived 2 drops (USE YOUR STRAP NO MATTER WHAT! :P) without a mark. I feel I will be using this camera for a long time to come.
Side note: the lens can be used with any canon cameras that support it, including digitals!
- The information provided in the product description helped me choose what camera I wanted. The Canon Rebel with the 28-210 Lens kit is great!!!
