Canon prima super 105 35mm film camera
History and Presentation of the Device:
The Canon Prima Super 105 , also known as the Sure Shot 105 Zoom in the United States and the Autoboy Luna in Japan, is touted by the Canon Camera Museum as the crown jewel of the Prima Super series. It sports a pleasing design and offers remarkable performance. Despite its competitive price, it lacks some fashionable features of the time.
This model offers a zoom, although not continuous, offering seven focal lengths ranging from 38 mm to 105 mm. The zoom is composed of six elements in six groups, including two aspherical elements to improve contrasts. However, some might criticize the relatively long focal length. The flash is fixed and not focusable.
The camera features a Real Time (RT) mode that reduces shutter release time to 0.03 seconds. This feature requires focusing before shooting, making it less suitable for fast-paced action scenes.
It should be noted that the shutter is not particularly fast, with actual speeds diverging from those announced in the technical specifications (1/170 instead of 1/500).
Technical characteristics:

The Canon Prima Super 105 is a gem in the Prima Super series, with an attractive design and good performance. Although its zoom is not continuous and its focal length is relatively long, it offers interesting features, including the RT mode for increased responsiveness. It can prove to be a wise choice for everyday photography.

Why shoot film in 2024 ?
That's true.. Why would you want to shoot film in 2024 in the digital age?
Film photography offers a unique and timeless aesthetic that digital cannot replicate. Film grain, colors, and contrasts create a depth and texture that is unique to film photography.
Film photography allows you to physically hold your photos and negatives, providing a more tactile and memorable experience. Each photo becomes a unique object that you can keep and cherish.
Shooting on film encourages you to think and plan each shot carefully. This develops your photography skills and teaches you to be more attentive to detail.
Using a film camera connects you to a long tradition of photography. You are using a technology that has captured historic moments and has been practiced by generations of photographers before you.
With film, you focus on the moment without being distracted by the screen and digital settings. This allows you to better appreciate and capture the essence of each moment.
