Don’t give up! Try something different, maybe go on different days & times. Ask the people in the back when they put items out. The thrift is always about timing remember that 🧐

Love thrifting cameras. And it’s a great tip to ask if they have cameras. I once went into the back and found some gems. Including a stylus zoom that was in the trash!!! They told me I could just take it. I passed it on to another photographer. It’s great putting life back into these guys!! Also at garage sales, ask if they have cameras and get them back out in the world. I have bought whole boxes with great stuff to get your money back and more.

I started checking thrift stores for cameras about 8 months ago. I see very few cameras and so far haven't found one that I'd want to buy.

The mju 1 / stylus epic with the gold button you paid $1 for is literally so cool. I found the completely clear demonstration unit for the stylus epic recently. Pretty wild what you can find if you look around. Great video!

Of course, some people hate the aspect of the thrift because it makes you “feel gross” afterwards. Just wear gloves and a face mask, and wash your hands/clothes afterwards.

Watching this two years later…no film cameras anywhere except online (around me)

Every thrift store I’ve been to would sell the pelican alone for $25. Seems like they all google search cameras and get a rough idea of price nowadays. You’re either super lucky or that $700-$800 G1 setup was only in the video to spice things up 😉

Contax G1 , bingo

Film will make you a better everything because it slows you down and ends the spray and pray. Develop and Scan your own film, it's easy as frying an egg. Never, ever store cameras in plastic bags or prepare for mold and fungus growth.

One digital camera with a similar "slow down and look" approach is the Floppy Disk Sony Mavicas, sure, it's not as good as film or modern digital, but it's still interesting to use, and with 13 shots at high quality per floppy disk you have to think about what you want to photograph, and wait a few seconds after the shot for it to save so you can't rapid fire. Deffinitly more of a temptation to retro computer nerds though since you need to get a floppy drive and a pile of floppies to save your pictures and load them to a PC
