Yes, I'm quite pleased with how this camera performed. It was a great deal, for five bucks at the Salvation Army! :o)

Thanks, Marvin.

Yes, there are some great deals out there to be found on old film cameras. The thing about film is that not many people know what to do with them these days. Even when I brought the film in to the drug store, to send off for processing, the clerk didn't even know they offered the service. I had to tell her where they stored the envelopes and how to fill in the paperwork. :o)

Thank you, Sonja!

Yes, in the major stores around here, they have those digital processing kiosks, too. You can even e-mail in your photos and have them waiting for your to pick up later. But, film processing services have all vanished. There's only the one place I know of that will do it, and you have to wait two to three weeks, as they send the film away for processing.

Well, Andy, I think you're pretty lucky to still have such services at your disposal. Here in Canada/North America, they just seem to be so eager to throw away perfectly good technology for the latest gadget or trend. And interactions with real people is becoming a thing of the past, as well. It's all going to mobile apps and touch screen interfaces. It started with bank machines and self serve fueling stations. Now you have self checkouts at the grocery and department stores, and I've even seen self serve touch screens to order your food at McDonalds. It' really sad to see, if you ask me.
