    80's Nikon and cannon...

    Hey guys! Just wanted to show you what I managed to dig up! My parents where also into photography and I have my mum's mid 80s Nikon SLR and my fathers fathers camera from the early 70s (I think) just wondered if any of you know anything about them!
    Here are some images below!








    thanks for looking!!

    Do they take CF cards?

    A very nice find. Get some Velvia and take them puppies for a test drive!

    Re: 80's Nikon and cannon...

    how does the A1 sound, has it developed the whir that canons of that age seemed to develop or is it still just a sharp click as the shutter returns to its place (god i loved that sound so sweet)
