Do you want to buy a film camera? You have a lot of options from many different manufacturers and in a new video from The Slanted Lens, we get to see some of those options.

One of their featured options is the Hasselblad 500CM. The mechanical medium-format film camera costs between $1,000 to $1,500. It's not a fast camera and it has no meter, but it can produce some very nice images, especially when paired with high-end optics.

If your budget is smaller, the Canon AT-1 can be found for around $200 and includes metering. It has basically everything you need to get started shooting film. The AT-1 shoots 35mm film and it uses the very affordable FD lenses. One of its biggest advantages is its cost efficiency.

To see the rest of the selected film cameras and learn about their pros and cons, watch the video below.
