In Episode № 57 of I Dream of Cameras, we mind our P’s — Minolta’s little-known pocket XPan killer — and Q’s — diving into a particularly prodigious mailbag. Also, Gabe’s gone digicam kray-zee, and Jeff’s still obsessed with that Nikon Year of the Dog camera. Tune in for all the chitter-chatter!
Cameras of 1966:
The troublesome but alluring Rolleiflex SL66
The unreleased yet tantalizing Pentax 220
The well-named Petri Racer
Gabe’s recent acquisitions — he’s a digicam hipster!
Nikon Coolpix S1000pj with built-in projector
Jeff’s thoroughly besotted with the delightful panoramic point-and-shoot Minolta P's — it leaves the tab out when rewinding! And it comes in four other colors, red, blue, green and black — does he need 'em?
Olympus Stylus, mirrored chrome edition — are these special finishes worth the premium?
Revisiting the Nikon FM2/T Year of the Dog camera — the price continues to plummet, but the dog looks like the dogecoin Shiba Inu, so does that ruin it?
Gabe’s recent use of the Leica M6 on the WGA picket line reminded him how nice it is to use a lighter, less bulky camera
eBay annoyances, suspicious sellers…
and our super-prodigious mailbag!
