If you get a change to buy a AF-1 mini I would highly recommend it. There is only one problem. The battery door is designed so flimsy that you are super lucky to find one that is still in working condition. I just use tape to close it on mine. It's weather sealed and uses regular AA batteries and same lens as olympus mju.
Shouldn't it be possible to print a DX code sticker for say, ISO400 and put on the film roll if you want to use the experimental film stock? 🤔 Anyway, cool video! Which film stock did you use for the nice beach photos?
I'm living in Japan so I got it like new in mercari for 30$ and I just waiting until tomorrow to receive the battery and a Marix 800 tungsten film (equivalent to a Cinestill 800T) but for the falf price. So I'm exciting to start taking pictures here at night. 🏯⛩️🌆
i’m pretty sure they are very similar, i think the AF-1 super has small upgrades like a faster flash recharge and macro mode that the quartzdate doesn’t have, but the quartzdate looks superb anyway! same great lens and nice design so i’m sure you’ll be fine!!
Very nostalgic for Olympus point and shoot cameras. My mum used the AF 1 as our holiday camera. I inherited it years later and I still own it.
Beautiful shots!🙌
Just got mine today. I just love the look of it

possible but also inconvenient/ tricky for most, i’ve never tried it before but been meaning to. I was shooting ultra max 400 as well i’m pretty sure
@@matt_tube Oh yeah, definitely inconvenient 😁 but still a quite cool possibility and workaround.

i’ve seen som of the japanese 800T you have over there and they look really good! hope you’re images come out good when you start shooting 💥
do you think theres a difference between the super and the quartz date? i just bought the regular but i hope i didn't make the wrong choice

would recommend trying out a leica m4 and a thypoch simera 28mm f/1.4 as a point and shoot, has worked great for me for over a year 🙏❤️😍
mate box brownie model no.2 is the new point and shoot meta, juicy 6x9 negatives, literally just point and shoot it’s crazy
