Summer 2010




Ah, the wonderful world of cheap Chinese cameras - The Great Wall.  I got mine from a Chinese vendor that I met on eBay.  I think I paid $35 for it.  After inquiring about it he actually sent a guy out to look for one - as it turns out the guy knew a friend who had one and didn't mind selling his.

It's not in perfect condition; as a matter of fact, the leatherette is slightly peeling and the second time I used it the plastic on the forwarding knob practically fell apart.  It also has a couple of areas where the light leaks, which can be annoying sometimes.  But I think with a little TLC this can be a great user camera.

Stay tuned - once I fix the light leaks I'll be using it a lot more.
