The last time I shot a roll of film has to be at least 20 years ago. I’ve kept my favorite cameras expecting to dip back into film photography at some point. It’s not going to happen. My interest in film has grown vanishingly small.
That reality combined with our renewed effort to get rid of stuff means the cameras are all being permanently retired after each provided many years of reliable service. So long (and good riddance).
The Olympus OM-2n single lens reflex (SLR) camera is a 35mm film camera made in the early 1980s. Here it is coupled with an Olympus Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 lens.
The Mamiya C330 Professional is one of the few twin-lens reflex (TLR) cameras taking interchangeable lenses. In this case the Mamiya-Sekor 80mm f/2.8 lens is mounted. The C330 took 120 or 220 roll film and shot square format.
The Nikon F3 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) camera was introduced in 1980 followed shortly by the F3HP High Eyepoint version. This camera has a 105mm f/2.8 Micro-Nikkor lens mounted.
The Nikon FM2 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) camera had a built-in light meter but automated nothing. One advantage is that the camera could still be operated with a dead battery.

Wow, end of an era …… amazing to consider how the technology has changed during our lifetime to what we have today. Also amazing the cost difference in cameras, film, processing, etc. ….. wonder how much you spent over the years ?? 🙂

Good point. All my adult life I’ve had a severe case of GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). It’s an expensive malady with only one sure remedy: poverty.
