My dad bought this camera when he was in university. This camera is SLR (Single Lenses Reflex) camera which requires film to take photos. It was launched in 1988, with the price of ¥ 80,000. This camera is about 30 years old, which existed before I was born. I didn't take any photo shots yet, but if I have a chance I'll try to upload the images. I always wanted a SLR camera and when my dad mentioned about his old one, I was happy to take it.
