These new scanners are designed to better see inside your carry on and use a CT Scanner rather than traditional X-Ray scanners. And while they will allow the security officials to better do their jobs, a single pass will wreak your film. We were first alerted to this by Freestyle Photographic and Kosmo Foto last month. It would be best to not use a lead foil bag, they won&#8217;t help either and just ask for a hand check, if you&#8217;re clear, polite, and professional, the TSA will follow through with your request. Currently, the new CT Scanners are installed at the following airports.

You can have &#8217;em for a low price but they&#8217;re far from being cheap. Here are our picks for the cameras that are Reliants, Le Barrons, or Le Barron Converatables.<\/p>\n<p><em>Yashica Minister III<\/em><br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a reason we haven&#8217;t discussed the Yashica Minister series on the show before. It only saw production for a year and seemed to fly a little under the radar among the vast numbers of fixed lens rangefinders of the 1960s. <\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/48935277236\/in\/album-72157661488973661\/\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48935277236_441af701c6_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Make: Yashica<br \/>\nModel: Minister III<br \/>\nType: Rangefinder<br \/>\nFormat: 135 (35mm), 36x24mm<br \/>\nLens: Fixed, Yashica Yashinon 1:2.8 f=45mm<br \/>\nYear of Manufacture: 1963-1964<\/p>\n<p><em>Nikkormat FTn<\/em><br \/>\nThese just work! The Nikkormat line while aimed at the consumer market is known for its heavy-duty frame and construction and bulletproof reliability. And while you won&#8217;t see the Nikon name on them, trust use they are Nikon cameras and use the tried and true Nikon F-Mount and are mostly designed to handle pre-AI glass but will work with AI and AI-S glass as long as they have the claw on it. Any camera in the line will do you well, although the FTn, FT2, and FT3 are you best bets.<\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/48935276966\/in\/album-72157661488973661\/\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48935276966_b5d87f9573_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"748\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Make: Nikon<br \/>\nModel: Nikkormat FTn<br \/>\nType: Single Lens Reflex<br \/>\nFormat: 135 (35mm), 36x24mm<br \/>\nLens: Interchangeable, Nikon F-Mount<br \/>\nYear of Manufacture: 1967-1975<\/p>\n<p><em>Pentax ME Super<\/em><br \/>\nThe ME Super was Pentax&#8217;s apology for the ME, which itself is the answer to the small SLR craze started by Olympus with their OM-1 in 1972. What set the ME Super apart from the original ME is that it introduced a metered manual mode, in viewfinder display of shutter speeds, a new shutter speed range from 4s to 1\/2000s and a second pin for dedicated Pentax flash units. But this camera is also slightly smaller than the OM-1 and super lightweight that helps it just do the job. Plus paired with one of the Pentax-M lenses you have a compact SLR that fits in any bag and even large pockets.<\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/48935277391\/in\/album-72157661488973661\/\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48935277391_3a36896192_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Make: Pentax<br \/>\nModel: ME Super<br \/>\nType: Single Lens Reflex<br \/>\nFormat: 135 (35mm), 36x24mm<br \/>\nLens: Interchangeable, Pentax K-Mount<br \/>\nYear of Manufacture: 1979-1986<\/p>\n<p><em>Olympus PEN EE-S2<\/em><br \/>\nWait, a half-frame camera sneaking onto the podcast? Well at first glance you&#8217;ll think this is an updated version of the Trip 35 and you&#8217;ll be partly correct. But as a basic carry around a camera that makes you think with the half-frame format this lovely camera has become a fast favourite of Bryan. He mostly uses the format to build diptychs with a pair of images to tell a story and then scanned together.<\/p>\n<p><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/axle81401\/48935277111\/in\/album-72157661488973661\/\" title=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/48935277111_7ee7f86233_b.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" alt=\"Classic Camera Revival - Episode 67 - K-Cars\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Make: Olympus<br \/>\nModel: PEN EE-S2<br \/>\nType: Viewfinder, Zone Focus<br \/>\nFormat: 135 (35mm), 18x24mm<br \/>\nLens: Fixed, Olympus D.Zuiko 1:2.8 f=30mm<br \/>\nYear of Manufacture: 1968-1971<\/p>\n<p><strong>Getting Started with Film &#8211; A Q&#038;A with Bryan<\/strong><br \/>\nYou&#8217;ll probably notice a new voice on our show today, the voice of Bryan Caporicci. We&#8217;ve been talking about getting Bryan onto the show for a while now, and we finally snagged him. While new to film photography specifically, Bryan is not new to photography. He&#8217;s been a photographer for the past thirteen years as a professional photographer in Ontario&#8217;s Niagara Region. While he mostly works with clients he takes beautiful images of both the people he works with and his own family. In addition to being a working photographer, he also teaches and runs a podcast of his own and often focuses more on the business aspect of running a successful Photography company.
