You want more and you want it fast? Tune in to Episode № 65 of I Dream of Cameras, “Rebel Rebel,” in which Gabe and Jeff wax rhapsodic about the trash-table treasure Canon EOS Rebel 2000. How did this grubby chunk of plastic capture the hearts of two men devoted to the cult of Leica? Pluck this pod and find out! Also, we call out great cameras NOT from the big-name brands, recount recent shooting adventures, and take a shallow dip into the deep and prodigious mailbag!
Jeff made a major math error! 64 is 2^8
Cameras of ’58:
Mamiya Elca (and from ’59, the fascinating square-format Mamiya Sketch)
And now, the long-promised Minority Report (great cameras not from the big-name brands)
Alpa 11si (of course)
Plaubel Makina 67 (Gabe’s gonna get one!)
The trash-table Canon EOS Rebel 2000 is dirt cheap and packed with features — we both love ours!
There’s also an even-cheaper EOS Kiss Panorama with a stupid panorama switch!
The 40mm f2.8 pancake lens is delightful
Check out Casual Photophile's impassioned defense of “Dorky AF” SLRs of the late ‘90s
Gabe’s been shooting portraits (?!) with Leica’s 28mm Elmarit
And finally, a dip into our Prodigious Mailbag™
