He taught me how to take pictures on it when I was seven. I used to get folks to hold up a finger so that I could focus. The scrapbook is full of family photos with at least one person holding up a finger.</p> http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063590 http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063590 Comments Mon, 09 Apr 2007 14:01:01 -0600 <p>Haha JB, it could also be under all the batteries too! </p> http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063582 http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063582 Comments Mon, 09 Apr 2007 13:52:26 -0600 <p>I also have an AE-1 - and I agree, it took amazing pictures! I may have to go find mine as well, probably buried underneath a pile of CompactFlash cards and USB cables...</p> http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063375 http://houstonist.com/2007/04/08/houstonist_flic_241.php#comment-1063375 Comments Mon, 09 Apr 2007 08:52:15 -0600 <p>And AE-1's made great photos. AND, with a little training and equipment, you could even do all the developing yourself, rather than sending them away... Might go dig mine out of the closet just to feel that cold metal.</p>
