- I loaded up five point and shoot film cameras from the 1980s and 1990s with rolls of Kodak Gold 200 and hit the streets for a head to head comparison. The contenders of this camera vs. camera shootout are :
• Canon Sure Shot/AF35M II
• Nikon L35AF/AD
• NIKON Lite•Touch/AF600
• Yashica Auto Focus Motor
• Ricoh R1.

Scans:
Scanning for this project was provided by the Film Preservation Project. Shown in the video are uncorrected straight scans from a Noritsu scanner. Under normal circumstances a scanner operator would have made adjustments to each images, so you'd probably see even less variation in the images. For more information on negative scanning check out: www.filmpreservationproject.com/
Cameras:
All five of these camera were untested thrift store finds, they had surprisingly little issues. As you can see by the images, the Yashica has got some focusing problems. Beside that, there don't seem to be any major issues. All cameras used in this video are for sale at: www.dcbryan.com/shop/
My takeaways:
I was surprised by how similar many of the photos were, with some adjusting in Lightroom, maybe would be indistinguishable from each other. The old saying "It's not about the camera, It's about the person behind the camera" definitely holds true here.

Your drive by shootings raise my anxiety level to about 800iso
Haaaa
One of the few TH-cam videos that actually shows photo comparison! Appreciate your effort for the cause!
side by side with FIVE cameras as well. #respect. I also see people make comparison videos but don't show pics side by side or pics are the same photo. I made a video comparing the olympus mju II vs other cameras, I thought no many other people showed it the way I did. Props to this dude.
umm lol nvr drive and take pictures again
C'mon bud, let him live a little.
@@TheHoleshotking an old classmate of mine died a year ago because he drove and used his phone. he drove in to a bus that came from the other side. "luckily" he only killed himself, imagine his stupidity not only breaking his families heart forever but also other peoples families. don't. drive. and. do. anything. else.
Christopher Anderson does it
Yep stupidest thing I’ve seen recently. Could he not get someone to drive and he be a passenger taking pics??

This is awesome to see this type of comparison with these five cameras all using the same film. I personally have an AF600, an L35AF, and a pair of AF35M2s which are great, but now I kind of want the R1! Looking forward to more videos!
I have the Nikon L35 and the Canon AF35M II and they're both a blast to shoot on. This was an absolutely awesome comparison video to watch, thank you for sharing! Keep up the great videos!!👍👍👍
Enjoyed this one and very helpful as I'm in the lookout for a new point and shoot camera.
P.S. Hope u didn't abandon your channel and pls make more of this kind of video!
Been eyeing the AF600 for so long. Thanks for making this vid! Gonna grab one now
This is exactly the comparison I was looking for! Thanks for sharing photo real results of different cameras in the same location. So helpful!
Ricoh 1 and then the Canon Sure Shot. Both amazing camera.
Ricoh R1 took it for me followed closely by the two Nikons. Great comparison. Thanks for the work putting it together!
Love these point and shoots - Great comparisons!
Love this comparison video! Very straight forward and helpful comparison and interesting documentary of your trip without unnecessary long video. Subbed and Thank you!
The Ricoh R1 for me is the winner👌🏻 sharp images
sadly the lcd problem is quite notorious... i think the nikon af600 is the best of the bunch quality of image/price on ebay
Great video! I enjoy mixing it up with point and shoots.
Absolutely helpful video even years later. Thank you!
found this video by the link in your ebay listing. awesome video. hopefully you keep making more
Great little test. I own the Nikon L35AF2. Was my dads but he stopped using it years ago. Old camera but still works great. He would use it to take pictures of the family and now many years later I'm doing the same with my own family on the same camera used all them years ago.
I own that one as well. Kinda bugs me that I can’t set the iso but it’s a great cam.
That AF600, will keep an eye out for one!
Ricoh R1 look fine ( good contrast color and sharp)
I agree, definitely a contender.
Great video! Exactly what I was looking for :)
dude. respect your efforts!
Great video sir. Was choosing between Canon af35m and Nikon L35AF, this helped me decide. thanks for this!
Great video. Please make more of this! I’m quite surprised about the Ricoh R1 hmmm
Amazing video. No one actually compares cameras with same shots like this!
this is amazing!!!!!!!! honestly, I'm looking for a new 35mm point & shoot and was trying to find some comparisons of the Canon AF35M II vs. the Nikon L35AF/AD vs. the Yashica AF, and now I find this video and see that the camera I want is the Ricoh R1!!!!!!!! I totally forgot that Ricoh also made a camera in this "range".
AMAZING! THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU JUST MADE ME SO COMFORTABLE WITH MY DECISION.
EBAY HERE I COME, RICOH R1 COME TO DADDY.
thanks for the video! Just what I searched for!
It just very very nice comparison, thanks for making this video.
Glad you enjoyed it - It was to make.
Thanks for the video.
While my Leica M10 digital with 35mm lens was in the repair shop, I used my Nikon L35 AF. The Nikon point & shoot was a great backup.
Overall, the Nikon AF600 is the winner in my opinion.
Good video! My canon af35ml just started having problems and none of the shops here in PDX say they can get parts to fix these old things :( After seeing this video I think I might try to snag a AF35M II as a replacement!
great video! liked and subsribed! really appreciate the effort that went into this :)
Great video!
Awesome video. I hope you will record another similar video.
Thanks for the videos. May I know which one is the most quiet based on your experience? For now I am considering to get AF600 or L35AF.
nice review! thanks
more point & shoot cameras vlog contents pleaseee!!!
Love this !
Huh... Bro can I attach Lens with Yashica Af 2?
do you use a gopro or any clip for video recording while taking photos in the photo walk??
love your ultimate consistency, thanks! as for me its 30mm Ricoh vs 28mm Nikon
For some reason the picture counter of my Yashica bounced 4 pictures at a time, shot my first roll of film and I got 4 pictures out of 24. Any idea why?
More videos like this please!
I like the Nikon L35AF most....although there is something about Yashica in terms of tone...feels true vintage...It obviously has focus issues (?) but in general it depends what you're looking for. I don't like super sharp images personally...The Ricoh one looks similar to what you'd get with a manual 35mm camera so that's pretty impressive.
What a helpful video! Thanks
I like Canon btw
I really like the Nikon l35 one but thought the portrait was a shame compared to the landscape shots. I thought the Yashida faired the worst/not the bed in this comparison. Really helpful video, Ty !
Now I know which camera I'm going to buy. Thanks!
Glad to help!
👏👏👍 Great Video I love it amazing places
Me: Oh just that video and then working. It’s just 7 min tho.
Also me: *stopping for 3 minutes after every shot to compare the details, shadow, high lights, sharpness, contrast....*
I have a few of these cameras that you used in your test also I have dozens of others. I've taken several of these shots that you took as well with many cameras. I'm really a Canon guy but I thought the Nikons looked the best in most of the shots.
The R1 seemed to be the sharpest and highest quality, while the L35 had the warmest feeling to the images (not color wise, just a warm clean feeling to them)
R1 was easily the strongest IMHO. If I hadn't just pulled the trigger on an Olympus XA, I would be looking to get an R1. I need to throw at least 18 rolls through that camera before I even start looking at another film camera in that size 😂
Thank you for making this video! I love how you show comparisons. Very helpful. However, it seems that you may have mixed up which shot came from which camera because when you show the shots one by one and then all together the shots are not labeled consistently. More specifically I think you're mixing up the Ricoh R1 and Nikon Lite shots.
Feel free to download the full resolutions images here - goo.gl/GnzR95 They're all labeled by camera.
My father had canon I loved to shoot it
Going to get one nostalgic))
I have the Canon AF35MM and I want to add the Ricoh R1 to my collection 🖤
what is the song?
Why Yashica missfocused most of the time?
Great video idea. I'm sad to say (since I have the Canon on the way) that the Nikon Lite Touch is the clear winner.
i swear yashica auto focus is iffy my friend owns a t4 and a t2 and its always crapping out on him and it seems to be consistent with a lot of the yashicas ives seen
I did like the Canon AFM35 a lot, but overall everything but the Yashica had at least 1+ winning.
Hi guys I have both Nikon L35AD2 and Canon Autoboy 2 Which one’s better? I might sell of these.
You shoot them and find out :D
I have the 2 Nikons. Had the SureShot (used) until it broke. The Lite-Touch used to be a fave of news photogs to throw in a bag with REAL Nikon cameras..
Nice
Great video. Only suggestion is maybe watch your distance on those portrait shots, so that you're over the minimum focus distance for a good sharp shot.
What up with the YASHICA Auto Focus Motor? nothing works XD
Nice vid
The Yashica Auto Focus Motor has such atrocious focusing despite having “auto focus” in the name. And unfortunately I JUST picked up one for myself before watching this video lol. Appreciate the comparison! Now I know of alternatives if the Yashica is as bad as it seems.
I think the one I had might have actually been broken... for your sake at least let’s hope that was the case.
Hey! For me the same story! How is the focus on your Yashica? I ordered it today, but its not as good as i thought when i see this video..
Aye I know you live in Portland where’d you buy your film at
Man Wai I think the two best places in town to buy film are Blue Moon Camera in St. John’s and Pro Photo Supply in NW.
is the nikon l35af very loud?
The sounds of the shutters in the videos are the actual sounds from the camera. I don't think it was particularly quite.
thrift haul for point and shoot cameras pleassseeee
Really like the idea of this but I think that theres is a mixup in the pictures taken out of the moving car. you seem to label the different from the point of taking them to the part where you show them alle 5. that is unfortunate and a bit confusing. But really like the whole setup and comparison idea.
You're welcome to look through the raw photos taken with each camera. The link is in the comments, that should clear up any confusion.
@@smokeythebirdbrain thx - i will do that. :-)
Again - great idea and a sort of no nonsense way to check out and review cameras
Where did you buy the film? so cheap!
Clearly the Ricoh was the best. But the the two Nikons came close. Nikon L35 is awesome.
gotta love how the camera that has auto focus as it's name literally misses focus 9/10
yashica's autofocus be like... nope
R1
ricoh for me
Yashica autofocus was consistently not-focused :)))
Where do you get your film from??? It’s so cheap!
It’s from the year 2018
@@smokeythebirdbraina true vintage
There must be something wrong with your Yashica. Mine shoots pretty crisp shots, yours looks like they are out of focus.
Ricoh F1 all the way
More like Yashica Out-Of-Focus Motor ;-))
Also please don't drive and shoot at the same time, that is really stupid...
But thanks for the great comparison!
The Canon adds a cool coloring/underexposure that I like. The Yashica is trash. The other three are average.
Great idea for all to follow - shooting out of a car window while you are driving! Seriously?!
Daft !
Thank you for the comparison, but please don't do that while driving
first 🔥
$3.49 for gold i want to die
Prices have fallen you can by this for $13 now 😭 it’s fine 🔥
Where is this place, Ricoh is best and yashica was very poor.
cariza5 filmed in and around Portland, Oregon.
@@smokeythebirdbrain wow, you still have them in Portland with Antifa thugs over there.
Omg why the fck you taking pic while driving 💀
Jesus man. Fucking focus on driving.
please wash ur hands
None of them are good...
Lol classic TH-cam comment 😂
