Point and Shoot, Shoot Out!
So, I have been looking for a good point-and-shoot 35mm camera to tag along on trips. So I found two point-and-shoot cameras, loaded them both with Fuiji 200 color film, and went out and about shooting my heart out.
Test Photo 1
Now I am not going to talk about the cameras as of yet, there will be a video coming for that. I will also say this may not be the final pick between these two cameras either. I have had my eye on another camera. But for now, these will do.
Test Photo 2
Between these two cameras one seems to be a little sharper than the other, see if you notice between the two shots above. Both have fixed lenses so the is no zooming in and out. That may be something I may have to think about going forward, do I want a point-and-shoot that zooms, or is it a fixed focal length that I want?
Test Photo 3
Test Photo 4
Also, note in test photos 3 and 4, you will notice there is a built-in flash, there are common on all the 35mm point-and-shoot 35mm cameras out there from the 90s to early 2000s. That is what a lot of people are looking for from night-time or indoor pictures to a single flash fire on analog pictures.
Stay tuned for the YouTube video very soon. I am working it now and may have it up by the weekend.
