I need a 35 mm slr camera with manual action for my photography class, would this camera work? And also can you tell me everything about the film?

I just used Fiji mm film/ But when I received my pictures back, there was a lot of ruined pictures due to a light leak.

Yes! It is automatic but you can change the settings to manual. I needed this camera for my photography class as well and my teacher only wants us to use manual settings too so yes it would work. Well I'm still learning about film and the whole developing process so there's not much I can say about the film. In my class we use Ilford Delta 400 Black and White film.

It should work just fine with the D3200. I believe it has it's own internal motor for Auto-focusing.Really enjoy using it as a walk-around lens and agree with others that it on camera most of the time for casual/family photography. I only switch to my 70-300mm lens for a slightly longer reach and faster response and my prime 35mm f1.8 for low light use, but this lens is a great all-purpose lens due to it's useful range in the wide and zoom ends. BTW, I ordered mine from a marketplace vendor in Hong Kong and it's a Grey Market version (no US Warranty) at a really good price at about $300! So if you are comfortable not having US Warranty you can save a lot. It should work just fine with the D3200.

If some one is taking classes for photography I'll strongly suggest to get a DSLR, instead of this camera. Please do not get me wrong, this is a great camera but not for people who take photography as a hobby. This is a great camera if you just want to document life events.

I don't possess a 35mm nor have I received this lens as yet, the recipient hasn't given me lens. I have an 18-55mm. From the comments I've read prior to purchasing it, it seems of great performance but I guess lighting (whether frm natural lighting or a speedlight) will also determine ur photo outcome. Speedlite helps alot! I tuk evn a few shots yesterday with mine n they're of great quality. Go browse some reviews from evn Youtube, like I did. Am planning to buy a 35mm prime lens later also.

I too have a Minolta camera 35mm film. I bought this DSLRA350 with the idea that my Minolta lens would fit this new camera. They do not. This is still an excellent camera but you will need to buy lens to fit it. I have been very happy with Tamron AF 18-200mm. I bought it through Amazon.com. I also bought Tamron AF 70-300mm.

Yes, I bought film and it worked as said. Although, the pictures turned out pretty cloudy. I dont know if its because I'm a terrible photographer, the film is bad, or the camera.

It will work, but only with manual focus. Exposure meter and all other features will work.

Once again, THANK YOU Technology Guy for taking the time to answer my questions in such a thorough and informative manner. I really appreciate it. I'm sure I'll enjoy the Rebel Kit as my introductory into digital SLRs, and I'll be sure to stop by the photography forum as you suggested. Thanks again.

Thanks for the response. Have you tried recording a movie in low light?What type of Cannon are you a fan of? I'm looking for something to take good action pics at gymnastics meets and to record some movies of routines as well.

Greetings!I suppose it's a low budget film. Unless you have good illumination, I don't recommend it under low light environments. The Lo-Light mode has a bad performance.Also remember this is not a professional camera. Good luck in your project, hope I can watch it when released.

Absolutely. It takes 35mm film, is easy to load and relatively easy to use. Just be sure your beginner reads the manual and understands how to use a film-based camera and the concept of taking double-exposed photos and forwarding the film.

Hello Paula. It depends on the film you decide to buy. This camera comes without the film and it requires a f new film to operate.Please let me know if I can assist any further.Thank you,Your EPower

Hi Allie,I wish that I knew the answer to your question. I bought this film for friend that owns a super 8 camera. To my knowledge, he hasn't shot it yet. You might try to call or email someone at Kodak. Film people are generally pretty helpful. If not, there are probably film clubs that you can find online that use 8mm film. Sorry I couldn't be more help.Good luck.Matt Marconi

Yes. This camera is great for action shots. Like any SLR camera, you will need to be sure to have it on the right settings when taking action shots. It will also take three pictures back to back with one click. The shutter speed is fast. It only takes three pictures with one click if you set it to do so. Great for action shots. I am a new learner to SLR CAMERAS.

Yes it is! Bought this film for a trip to Montana last October! I have an old Minolta XD5. 35 mm camera which still takes great pictures! Had the film developed at Walmart! 35mm film is getting hard to find! I'm satisfied with the film! I would buy it again!

It will work, but you won't be able to meter through the lens. It may only work in Manual mode, but if you're that kind of shooter then you'll still be able to take nice photos. Its worth the extra work for this lens, IMO

Yes! I like the fact it is compact with all the features of my 35mm Canon or Minolta. I have always used a film loaded camera; so, I am still learning about my new camera.
