oooh that is quite a testimony for it! I might have to try pick one up soonish. I'm sure they're pretty unknown on this side of the world. I do prefer the wider angle stuff, but you've made me curious :D
Selling the T3 now is great timing, every hipster is after one after that instagrammer celeb lady started waving hers about,.. i forget her name.
You won't be disappointed(I hope haha) that camera is always on me. I hope you can pick one up over there but try to go for the 1000asa version. $5-$15usd is what I usually thrift them for but they've already hit the $120-$150 range in just under 3 years. The camera shop here used to resell them for around $25 but now are labeled $100+
I'm sure I've seen them in the thrift stores as well here,... it's the weekend so maybe a shopping trip is in order :D
