Hi Everyone;

So glad to find this site.The people on here are very friendly to us newbies and make us feel welcomed. I have enjoyed 35mm film for a long time,but back in the summer of 1997 I had my Yashica FR 50mm lens stolen.I looked around for a new one but I didn't have money to spare for a good Yashica so I just got a Polaroid 3300 BF.Not much fun to use but I did what I could with it.I did get a cheap $155.00 Kodak digital ,it died in less then a year.All this time I never looked on e-bay for 35mm Yashica's till just this November.I was very pleased at the prices.I just started buying,now with less then $200.00 I have 28mm lens up to 400mm lens 4 bodys and 3 winder's. I just started getting items in the mail so far everything works fine and loving it.My son (21years old)was watching me buy on e-bay and asked "Why do you want Dinosaur Technology".I got him a FX-70 and now he comes out with me and is learning this "Dinosaur Technology" and is reading your site too .I hope he comes over to the dark side.:D

I am glad you found this place, and also pleased that you think as I do, of it as a great resource, rather than just another photo site covered with ads.

Welcome from Saskatchewan. There is so much experience here that it is incredible the information you can glean. I also have an FR in my arsenal. It was the first slr camera I ever bought. Had it re sealed and the checked out and I love shooting it.
