A Cheap Full-Frame Alternative
2008-07-26
|
Like many people, I started out with a Canon Rebel XTi and wet my toes with its kit lens for over a year before I felt the need to up to a prime 50mm and a L-series telephoto (70-200 F4).
I was seduced by the myth of having a full frame camera but as a university student, couldn't afford to plunk two grand on a camera body after draining all my resources on the lenses. I decided to have a cheap full frame by buying an ancient Canon Canonet QL17 off ebay and I fell in love with shooting film so much that I brought a refurbished Elan 7e as well.
I went out to do some street photography today and have been using the Elan 7e since March. It has all the features I love on my XTi but in an affordable full-frame 35mm package. Looking through the huge viewfinder is always a pleasure and going back to the dim and narrow viewfinder of the XTi reminds me how much more subject you can fit inside a real 35mm frame. Using film is a pleasure too, I have honestly became a better photographer because I take significantly more time with each shot and I focus more on composition and framing than trying to luck out a shot with the "machine-gun" shutter of digital SLRs.
I use this film camera along with a few others (I have since became a collector of film cameras) for my personal projects and I have since dedicated my XTi for photojournalism and event photos for quick transfer and convenience.
I highly recommend the Elan 7E and it's newer cousin the 7NE as an affordable alternative to the dreamy 5D or the recently announced Nikon D700. And finally, a 50mm is a 50mm and not 80 something. |

nice advanced 35mm SLR
2008-05-18

I picked up EOS Elan 7NE a few days ago (since it is not available at Amazon I had to order elsewhere), after I noticed that 35mm film cameras in advanced hobbyist/enthusiast range are getting rare, and I'm a dedicated film shooter. I plan using Elan alongside my trusty AE-1's; I just wanted something more modern, with AF etc and what won't brake the bank. 7NE definitely fits the bill; I ordered this body with EF 28mm-105mm f3.5-4.5 II USM lens which is supposed to be significantly better then entry-level 28mm-90mm that comes with available Elan kits at better online camera stores.
Camera is feature-packed; luckily the 100-page small booklet manual is well written and consistent in giving enough info to get you going. I'd like to add that the camera is somewhat bigger then I thought (I'll try to upload a shot of 7NE and AE-1 side by side for size comparison), however size shouldn't be a drawback. Overall it feels solid and is easy to hold, controls are well laid out, and I have overall a good feel about it. I shot a test roll of B&W PlusX with it the other day and it came out decent even on full-auto mode. I also tried the eye-controlled focus, and yes it works as advertised.
BTW, there is large variety of used Elan and EOS bodies available for low prices on auction site, however I wanted to get a spankin new 100% functional & dent-free camera so there wouldn't be any surprises; since the 7NE body is so affordable, why not to buy brand new.

Excellent mid-range 35mm Film camera
2008-04-14

| I bought this camera in 2002 (when it was the Elan 7e), the only difference is body texture, lit display, and a slightly faster autofocuser. The camera works great and the pictures are great. It takes 4 fps. I don't use this camera anymore since going digital with my EOS 40D but if I would recommend a film camera at a good price, this would be the camera. If you still use film, this is a camera that is hard to beat at the price. |

Great film camera for hobbyist
2007-03-08

| I am enjoying my new Canon EOS Elan. I find it comfortable to hold and easy to use. I have not yet had the opportunity to try out all the features, but the few films I have exposed in auto mode and had developed satisfy my needs at this point. The rewind mechanism is VERY quiet which is nice if you plan to use the camera at a public event. |

AWESOME!!!

Okay, first off, I'd like to say that this is my first AF SLR--I stepped up from my dinosaur of a camera, Canon AE-1 manual focus, and right now I am quite overwhelmed by all the features in this little thing. I'm still in the learning stages of all this technology but let me tell you this, I am having fun! It amazes me that Canon can offer quite an impressive camera for the price.
I just received my first few rolls from the developer and the pictures came out amazing--so clear and the colors are very vibrant. Just to let you know, I'm using the 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens. I took the suggestions of many and passed up on the "kit" lens and I'm sure glad I did so. I would highly recommend the f/3.5-4.5 lens, but unfortunately for the rest of you, Amazon has discontinued it. But you could order it from one of the many other photo shops (B&H, Adorama, etc).
Do I have any regrets on this purchase? Absolutely not! I love this camera and even though I've owned it for less than a month, I'm actually thinking about stepping up to the EOS 3 and using this as a backpacking/hiking body. Hmm...what to do, what to do? Do I purchase another body or start a collection of L-series glass? ...that is the question.
