Hi, dong Ho. I'd been into photography since 1994. This film camera was bought in 1988 :)

Hey Dodong! Long time no post... here anyway. Wow since 1988! I was just graduating grade school back then.... I was just using a polaroid camera hehe.... do you remember those?... no wait, I was in highschool pala... I should've joined the photography club.... there's something more romantic about taking pictures with film and developing them yourselves eh? Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about the digital age, so much easier....

WoW! as in that long? 1988 I was in my early years in elementary that time and the only thing I want is to play with my friends hehehe... I love film camera! I own one to but DSLR are much easier to use and if you don't want your shot you can just delete it and make another one hehehe.. hmmm.. I guess your a pro photographer already :D

I know how it feels, being a photography hobbyist, myself, too. But I believe that it was all pure sweet memories. And like everybody and everything else, our service had to come to an end. :(
Merry Christmas to you and to your wife. :)

@ Angelo: I like digital too. It's more easier, convenient, quick, and economical. I do remember polaroid cameras as you've mentioned and I have a few photos taken from them when I was young but I didn't own one. Those are expensive gadgets during those times...
@ AudreyRose: I love film cameras too. Although there are a lot more advantages of digital cameras, there is something in film cameras that keep me wanting for it. Or maybe I'm just nostalgic here :D
I'm not a pro photographer, just a plain hobbyist...
@ carlotta1924: Happy New Year...
@ Grace: That's right - pure sweet memories...
Happy New Year to you...
@ BertN: Happy New Year...
@ Meryl: Happy New Year to you too. Here's hoping your nausea is already gone...
@ ace: Happy New Year, aCey :D
@ bw: Thanks for the wishes...
@ tin-tin: Yes, 17 years of service. I replace it with Canon 300D in 2005.
@ backpacking philippines: I'm keeping it and there's no plan to sell or give it away. I'll keep it as souvenir. Gastos ang film, Hehehe...
