Canon Ixus: Nokia World 2010

 

Doing a clear-out and found an old camera I had.  I knew it was old but not this old (May 1996).  Practically worth nothing now.  However, I may try to find some camera film and see if it works.  It does switch on so wish me luck.  I can parade it around, along with my old Nokia N82 while others 'bump and shout' with fancy digital cameras and up-to-date smartphones :0)  Look out for me at Nokia World 2010.

 

Oooo... do they still develop images from those films?  My blogging might be a tad slow while I wait for the images to be developed!
