I have ran across some kinda old 35 mm film camera's in maybe ok or maybe not good shape. they look like they are in pretty good shape to me but then again i have never used a film camera.
olympus om 10 and a 50 mm lens
minolta srt-101 and a 50 mm lens and most fo the books and org. box
canon t50 with a 35-70 mm lens
ok i want them to go to a good home, where they will be loved and cared for.
I dont really want to give them to someone that is gonna just sell them.
I would like to give them to someone that is gonna like them and maybe use them.
They are camera's they do deserve to be used cause if they like to take photos as much as my 20D does then ........ boy they are really depressed right now.
so please to a good home only :D

If no one else wants it, I have an OM-1 and a couple lenses for it (24 f2.8 and 50 f1.4) and I could put that OM-10 body to good use. Worse case scenario, the couple of Pentax K1000 that my school lends out for the photography program are piddling out and I'm sure they would be eternally grateful for another body/lens.

Mikey, I would love the Canon if it isnt already spoken for. I want to get my son started in photography, and a good old film camera would be a perfect start to learning the basics....Brad

Mike:
That's awful generous of you, but how about donating to an organization that really needs and could really use the gear. Here's one example of such non-profit group:
http://www.photovoice.org/html/supportingourwork/cameraforcharity/
I don't have any affiliation with, nor do I have first-hand knowledge of this group, but one of its leaders is a former president of Magnum.
You'll probably be able to get a tax deduction in the bargain.
I may just unload my manual focus SLRs and lenses to them.

ah i might be too late but this is exactly what i needed. My community college wants me to purchase a 35mm but i dont have extra $ to purchase a good one. I hope that olympus is still there cause i need one with adjustable shutter speed. Pming you and praying!

doomman all of em are full manual so they all have adjustable ss, but it looks like im out of the race theres other people that need the cameras more then me

I could use the Minolta. I am an antique camera addict. I've got several old rangefinders including a Minolta (which is very sharp) and a few SLRs, but I don't have any Minolta SLRs. I generally change the seals when I acquire a camera, run a few rolls through them and then (I'm ashamed to admit this) they end up on the shelf beside the other cameras.
