Meet my grandfather’s Mamiya Sekor 1000DTL
I had always wanted this camera but until very recently my grandfather was actively using it… granted he put 1 roll of film in every 5 years and only busted it out on holidays and birthdays, but my grandfather is old-school great depression style so he can’t help it. Finally, I saw my opportunity after I saw him use a digital camera 2 years in a row… and I pounced like a lion that is a photographer whose prey is vintage cameras. The case is falling apart and the strap says “Canon: The Official 35mm Camera of the 1984 Olympics” but that just makes me love it more. Plus this camera takes phenomenal pictures. And it was my Pop’s :)
