Hi all.

I need to lay my hands on a 35mm film SLR.

If you've got one which you no longer use and it's unlikely it'll ever see action again...I'm keen to put it to use.

I'm looking for SLRs with as many of the following features as possible:

Fully manual operation (semi automatic and program modes as an addition are fine).

Depth of field preview lever/button
Flash sync speeds of 1/125 (1/250 is better)
Shutter speeds in the range of 1/2000 to 8 seconds
Clear and bright viewfinder
The lens on the camera is made by the same manufacturer as the camera and preferably a fixed focal length (50mm would be great)

And finally, it'd be preferable if it's a brand among Nikon, Canon, Minolta, Olympus and Pentax. Something like the Canon AE1 or Nikon FE2 would be good.

Please drop me a pm if you've got such an item

Dear Matt,

Ran into your post while looking for something else. Are you still looking for a film SLR for astro use (as I have an Olympus OM-1 sitting on a shelf)?

Best Regards,
Bob
