I've my old Canon 300D sitting in my closet, and I'm very curious to shoot film again (last time I did was over a decade ago), so this trade offer. ;D Description:Canon 300D with original battery grip, silver, I'm the first owner, in excellent operating and cosmetic condition (save for a few dead pixels which are mapped out when using ACR to convert RAW), no batteries (the original battery no longer holds charge well), no box/manual//warranty/kit lens. Battery charger is included. Trader/swapper may inspect/test the unit at Paranaque City. Great body for backup or as a secondary camera for scenics. Willing to trade for any EOS film camera in very good operating condition, manual focus or autofocus, equipped with a split-prism focusing screen. Trade offer good only for registered PBPF members.  Here's a couple of captures taken with this body: 300D + Sigmonster, 687 mm, ISO 400, 1/200 sec, f/7.1  300D + Sigmonster, 687 mm, ISO 200, 1/800 sec, f/8  |

Wow nice deal. this is like getting the paintbrush of Leonardo Da Vinci. This 300D should go into any museum for preservation.  If only I have a Canon film cam. Mastah, I have an Oly OM10 film SLR though |

Mastah, I have an Oly OM10 film SLR though Thanks, Toto..... I need it to be mountable on my long lenses. I plan to go on some sorties with only a film body, and see if I can shoot well without histograms, and other DSLR conveniences. In extreme trips when there's no power around to recharge batteries, a film cam with a roll of ISO 400 celluloid might save the sortie. ;D |

I've got a minty EOS300, the film version of your camera. Haven't used it since the Digital body came out so you might have to test it first. I may be able to send it to your warehouse for testing if you're interested. |

Thanks Rey for the trouble of bringing the EOS 300 over, it's in excellent shape. Unfortunately, due to my unfamiliarity with film SLRs, I was expecting that manual focus screens (split circle or split prism) are standard for all these cameras. This is not the case of course, as I learned now.  Without LCD review standard to DSLRs, I'll have to rely on accurate manual focus (via split prism) and thus, what I need is an EOS film camera equipped with a split-prism focusing screen. Will modify my trade offer now. Rey, as per our telcon, I'll just give back your camera once we see each other. |

Hi,
I think beginning with the first EOS, the EOS650, the standard split focusing screen had been taken out, though some top models (EOS620-EOS-1) have options for different types interchangeable screens including those with grid inlays. BTW, I have a still working 20 year old 650 and 50mm f1.8 mark I which I loved dearly.
