Reviews for Vivitar V3800N 35mm SLR Camera Kit w/ 28-70mm Lens

V3800N SLR Manual Focus Camera Kit

Strengths: Simple to operate. Fully manual operation allows full control for the user.

Weakness: Not for the casual photographer.

If you are reading reviews for a Manual SLR Camera, then it is assumed that you know what you are looking for. This is not a point and shoot camera. It uses 35mm film and requires the user to set exposure, focus, etc. for each picture taken. In that regard it is excellent for photography students who need those features. It includes a 10 second self timer and a light meter. The light meter does not control anything in the camera, it just tells the user the current light conditions. The camera also has the ability to do multiple exposures although I have not utilized this feature.
