A basic 35 mm. S.L.R. camera will cost around $140 plus or minus $20. Before considering purchasing a new camera it would be wise to have a look around and see what cameras friends and relatives have in their cupboards. The number of really good 35 mm. S.L.R. cameras that people have and do not use is absolutely mind-boggling. Many people are under a false impression that the more expensive the camera, the better the photo. This idea is often quite wrong as a camera is only a tool, often the opposite effect is achieved, as a good camera will often highlight the users lack of technique. | A basic 35 mm.
