Canon AE-1 Program Digital Costa Rica

[ColeOnly777]

the original AE1 IMO was the greatest camera ever made. i shot NY subway graffiti with it for close to 5 years (1985 - 1989). It was rugged and relentless, never let me down. i wish something like this (f-stop, shutter speed control dials etc.) was on the market.

[sofiiaglzz]

where did you get it?

[NagaTen]

I seriously hope the camera was beyond salvaging before you commited this atrocity...

[Goststriker]

I have the AE-1 Program :D No digital though xD

[KCPhotography2010]

@Goststriker SAME!

[fluffycheertiger]

does this camera use film?? ;o

[aprigiotattoo]

I wonder if the diaphragm and shutter still works after you move the machinery of it I have a Canon AE-1 and would make iqual .. I think your design is beautiful with the modern fusion atiquedade

[htnhp2003]

thank you buddy, I'm having the same ideas this morning.^^

[cuddietv]

thats pretty cool, i would rather have the real film camera but this is cool, good work



[slua111]

Where can i get this?

[MrPlaystationboy]

vintage SLR do look ALOT behter then the newer DSLR's i think canon should make a dslr but whit the aperance of a old film rangefinder

[reddog694uk]

this should be taken to market with versions for all canon cameras. You'll make a million!!

[helconache]

BIEN POR ESO, HE PERSEGUIDO POR MUCHO TIEMPO QUERIENDO SABER SI ESTO SERIA POSIBLE Y AHORA LO HE VISTO. PERO COMO (PASO A PASO), TIENES ALGUN TUTORIAL O DOCUMENTO PARA SABER LA CONVERCION. TE AGRADECERIA ME INFORMES, COMO CONSEGUIR TAL...

[cliffpov1]

Love the digital rewind knob. LOL

[donttrustany1]

what a waste of a great camera(the AE-1, not the stupid digital point and shoot).

[visionirie]

That's just sad..

[kirikset]

omg. IMHO it is sick to turn an SLR into a digital point-and-shoot

[startimes773]

OMG 

[visionirie]

Although that may seem like a cool project for some, I would never do that to my AE-1.

[patriciomasa]

que limado



[TNT314159]

Ya no es un SLR...?

[freakzola]

that is sick though, I have an ae-1

[95izreen]

do you agree if i buy this camera??

i dont know which to pick??

i already have canon eos 60d n 550d..

i wanna to try an old one....

[surferboy36O]

Destripáste una pobre AE-1 Program...

[fuanal]

mae donde compró esa camara?

[qwiksquirrel]

This is so awesome.

Almost makes me want to do the same to my Leica M7. But only almost ;-)

[cpcrame]

lmao! i'm gonna put my digital camera in a donut and call it a donut digital camera.

[quetzadilla]

puro pedo.... que buena manera de joder una cámara clásica, para forrar una digital barata.

[DavidChavezOrtiz]

Cool.

[unchiekun]

totally cool. I thought about doing this last week. Looks like you were first. Congratulations!

[estebnu3]

one ask, this is a old camera and you did it new or is a new camera do you buy? cause i want one

[caminocomosolitario]

yo tengo la misma pero analógica, un clásico xd

[carllarsson123]

Is this just a small digitalcamera costumed with ae-1 or does it work as a ae-1 with a digital viewer?

[JRQEOS]

ojala que las camaras actuales fuera con esta joya, pero desgraciadamente el plastico se impone.

desde que inicio la guerra del megapixel siempre imagine a canon y nikon fabricando camaras como las de antaño, pero a la fecha solo las de gama alta

[tonskulus]

Nice video! What's that song? I like it (also that another one @ second video).

[latinumbavariae]

Sigh...

Whats the use of slaughtering a good analog camera to turn it into a crappy digital one?

[SammySoliman]

Great work! I would love if canon maid a production model of your concept.

[fallingwatter]

@SammySoliman  WOuld never happen in a million years

[epohnopulse]

@fallingwatter Actually, the production models of old school looking cameras in the digital form is a reality. They do make them.

[scarfaceu2]

Great Job & good music :)

[jajaboss]

Nice concept , but why don't put viewfinder in this camera

[ChumpJoe]

WHAT?

[Mijonju]

AMAZING!

[searchGOOGLEyouMORON]

this is cool, i think peter north's camera guy uses one of these during porno shoots.

[ichirootaniguchi]

this is still no where near as good as the Zorkii/Sony conversion lol

still not bad though. but you defoule a great camera @_@

[yaka94]

I have an AE-1 too.

Are you going to make a tutorial?

Can you use others lens ?

[batchint]

if that's the new type this must be an 'ol one...

[efilm]

[BoxxyFan]

4gb? why not stick in a 16gb? fail.

[hentaiemperor69]

@BoxxyFan

for driver issues, duh!!

[ptpeeanuts]

i'll make one too........ thankssss for the idea :)

[gORERubicon]

Looks nice...would not use, all it is, is a hole cut in the back of an ae1, a lens and all glass removed, and a P&S shoved inside, hence theres AF, i wish it was a digital back =[

[iamKiluka]

Fake. it's a compact into a AE-1. Look how much the Canon logo at the back is not centered.

[mahamza86]

so they cut open the old body and just put a point and shoot camera in it, I say not clever enough.

[bulletz4life]

@mahamza86 so then you try to do it.

[mahamza86]

@bulletz4life Ok, if you provide me with the cameras



[elfranz]

my dream materialized... I want to put on digital my Yashica Electro 35 GSN, best camera ever owned...

[djmomocrx]

I wan`t to reborn the camera in to new one , I used only the body of AE-1 , its strong , and make a excersise ,

it's a simple proyect to use the body, the button release, the on off swich, the dial mode, and oviusly , the aparence of the AE ,

to take pictures again !! ( AND VIDEO TOO !! )

[UnWaXeD74]

Awesome!

[richhobo94]

nice but i bet he just hollowed out the ae1 and lens (hence the cover) and fit the point n shoot inside... rewire the flash and the trigger to finish it. cool idea!

[barrosinc]

its an sd 870IS in a AE1 body...

Super cool!

[Sloopies]

hope this isn't a hoax...

[akbarfoto]

google translate is weird... are you saying that the slr lens has no glass? so your are still using the compact camera lens? since I say when you shoot the zoom moves.

[akbarfoto]

[GoodWrites]

Awesome! My father bought a Canon AE-1 Program when he was stationed in Okinawa. I have been a Canon guy ever since! I need one of these! Are you going to post the "How to?"

[deweytann]

How the heck to I get one? Or make one?

[djmomocrx]

el lens cover lo removi cuando la camara estaba hacia el frente , asi si funciona, ji ji

[mhnamba]

SUPER! Parece que sempre hay un tecnico que no tiene nada que hacer!!! Y inventa cosas locas - pero el lente parece cerrado (lens cover attached) - como eso funciona?
