My first Stylus Epic photos

[capitalK]

I had been watching for one for a while. Found one for $3.99 at a thrift store last month and threw it in my bag as a backup. I went on a quick trip last weekend and had TRI-X loaded in my Bessa and Ektar 100 in my Stylus Epic.

Here's my first shots from this little gem. I had to use flash because it wasn't too bright and because I was using 100 speed film. I could fix the colour balance but for now I like the way these look. Needless to say these blow away my friend's point and shoot digital shots he sent, which is nice considering the ribbing I got for using a piece of junk film camera 😀

Nice shots, and a great little camera as well. Nice find.

cool! Like the shoes photo! I just picked up a stylus also, plan on taking it with me to a minor league hockey game Friday night to try it out.

I shouldn't have mentioned the price in case I ever wanted to sell it on the classifieds 😉

I'm still learning its strengths and weaknesses but I think it has found a place in my camera bag for sure (doesn't hurt that it's so small)

Great camera. I wrote an in-depth write up on the EPIC, here
