I have made a decision to take my photography a bit more serious and have begun experimenting with different films and slides. I bought a few rolls of Reala since it seems to have a good reputation. I just picked my pics from the local camera store. Wow!!!! One of the reviews in the section stated that his images had the appearance of a postcard when printed on really nice Fuji paper. 24 hour mobile mechanic Weakness:

Wow, this camera is packed with some amazing features like autobracketing and a mirror-up for telephotos! The best chimney sweep in wilmington has been using it for six years now and the exposure control is still spot on. Weakness:
Nothing so far. Purchased: Used

I have to confess that it fell off a moving car once, destroying the metal lens hood. I immediately took it to a local repair sho, and they cleared it as working perfectly. I was very impressed (and I never left it on the roof of a car again). on site truck repair Weakness:

Strength:
User-friendly, a lot of features. DOF preview. Reliability
Weakness:
Finding other lenses. I am glad I bought what I have while they were still available. No trade in value to speak of. I have owned this camera since the early 90's and like it alot. While I feel I have grown out of it, I am still using it. Customer Service Have never needed repairs on this camera. |

Strength:
Lots of features. Best are mirror lock up and dof preview which are almos inexistent in modern cameras
Weakness:
Looks and feels of weak construction, view finder very dark, only accepts Sigma lens, does not like cold weather (batteries go weaker in minutes). Lots of useful features for a low price. Customer Service Have never needed but may be difficult since it is a almost unknown camera Similar Products Used: Nikon 6006, FM2, Minolta X700, Pentax PZ1P |

SA-300
Strength:
Very easy to understand operation. Depth-of-field preview button, feature-loaded!
Weakness:
Limitation to Sigma lenses with Sigma mounts which almost no retailer carries. Viewfinder not very bright. Good camera at a reasonable price. However, because of the limited lens availability, I will soon give up my SA-300 for a more mainstream model. Other than that, I have no complaints about this camera which I have owned for 5 or 6 years now. Customer Service N/A Similar Products Used: N/A |

SA-300
Strength:
great features for the money and allows a good deal of exposure manipulation.
Weakness:
functions are a bit difficult to manipulate... mostly hindered by small buttons... Very good camera. Limited with respect to the lenses and flash units that can be used and the speed of the lenses, although the EX line are excellent, but are only 2.8 which isn't so bad. Once you get used to it, it's a great camera and very capable despite a few shortcomings. Similar Products Used: Canon, Minolta |
