Hiya!! I wanted to talk a bit about all the cameras I currently have, and ones that I would love to own in the future. If you don't know, photography is one of my hobbies and I also love more vintage/film cameras. :) I'll start from the first camera I've gotten to the latest from over the span of 8-ish years. Please feel free to talk about any cameras you also own or would love to have!!
1. Fujifilm Instax Mini 7S: I received this polaroid camera sometime around middle school as a gift, back when it was seen EVERYWHERE. It's been a minute so I can't really remember, but I'd probably say 2015-ish? I loved it so much and I'd say I used it at least once a week haha. I haven't used it in years though, I honestly might give it away or sell it.
2. Canon TX: I actually found this camera in my basement, my dad left it behind and let me keep it. I'm actively using this camera and just got some new film for it as well! It works wonderfully, although the only thing broken is the light meter, but you can manually adjust the exposure using the sunny 16 rule. Never fails!!
3. Olympus Camedia C-700 Ultra Zoom: I thrifted this one a couple years ago. It's a digital camera but I believe it shoots video as well. I really want to use this one, but it's hard for me to find an SD card for it. It has an extremely wide SD slot on the side, compared to the smaller slots I'm used to seeing. The SD cards I have seen for it are extremely expensive and only sold second hand as if it's not made anymore? Unless I'm just not looking in the right spots. Should've done a bit more research on this camera before paying for it at the time, haha. Camera quality seems really good though, from the videos I've seen online. A bit grainy, as it was made in 2001, but I love that older feel, so it doesn't bother me personally.
4. Canon EOS Rebel: I got this camera as a birthday gift from my dad. It is a modern film camera, so it takes film, but does what a digital camera can, like auto focus and adjust the exposure on its own, and has a LCD display and a mode dial. An amazing camera and on the smaller side. Haven't used it in a while, but that's just a me thing with being consistent with my hobbies.
5. Polaroid Sun600 LMS: I got this from a local mom and pop shop that also sells second-hand items. This camera is my BABY!! I love her so much and take her where ever I can. I've always wanted an 80s polaroid camera, and I was able to find her hella cheap; 17 bucks! In great condition, like new. Hoping to take more photos with her this year.
6. Canon Sure Shot 115u: I thrifted this one. Like I said before, I SHOULD'VE DONE MORE RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING!! I let excitement get the better of me when I found this camera, because it's a bit hard for me to find cameras at my local thrift nowadays. Nothing is wrong with this camera, it is in great condition, BUT I though it was a digital camera. It has the same look and build as a digital camera, but is film. At the time I was in the search for another digi-cam, so I was a bit disappointed, haha. Will say it's very tiny so it is really convenient if you want one just in ur tiny bag or even fanny pack.

Wishlist!!
1. Polaroid SX-70: I've been wanting this camera for a little bit and the photos on it are amazing. I really just love the older feel to photos I take. I already have a '75 camera but I think a 70s polaroid would be just as lovely.
2. Sony Cyber Shot DSC-W310: I love the outcome of the photos, they just have an chilling but nostalgic impact on me when I see them. I imagine they would look nice for Urbex photography.

Update!! For my Olympus camera, I figured out that it is a Smart media card that I needed. Ordered it immediately! :)
