Canon AV1 – APX 100

Canon AV1 – APX 100

This camera came to me via a Jessops shop in Brighton, I believe it was 1995. Not my first SLR camera, but I always was after a small and no-nonsense Canon shooter. I remember loading it with Jessops Pan 100 or Tri-x 400 and shooting the heck out of everything. Beautiful results, most of the times. But as luck would have it, there were moments when I was forgetting this is an aperture-priority camera, and some frames went ruined.

I have loaded it with APX 100 just for this visit to Sinaia, a mountain resort in the Carpathians, Romania. The camera behaved rather well, considering the time which passed since my last using it. But all came back to me fast, and I really enjoyed using it on this occasion. Needless to say, it is back into the fold, i.e. I am taking it out on regularly.
