I Was Just Being Rebellion

Song of the Day “Waste It On” – Silversun Pickups

I just want a film camera that can use my existing Canon EF lenses — that means an old film EOS. When I saw a Canon Rebel II on Craigslist for ten dollars. I figured that would be a good try. When I picked it up, I tested the shutter without actually looking at it. It sounded fine. When I loaded film, I noticed how beat up the curtains looked. Hmm.

So most of the frames came out like this:

I am highly bummed because I had some promising shots, some portraits of some people hanging outside a smokeshop last night. Four out of thirty-six came out all right. But I wouldn’t like to risk it. I don’t know how I’d flatten out those curtains. Probably a sunk ten spot. The search continues.  I’m looking for a cheap working film EOS. Whatchugotfome?
