067/365 - Back to Glory!... With Some Glue...? [For August 4th, 2010]

My dad has an old Minolta XG9 film camera that he let me have. He even found an old 50mm 1.7 lens that went with it, which, unbeknownst to him, I was looking for for a while now! =) However, the rewind dial (I think...) on the camera broke years ago, and needed to be fixed. Me, being a (relatively) poor 20-something kid, it was off to Walgreens for a solution! Yay! Haha.

Well, repairing it was not an issue!... Knowing how to actually use this full manual film camera was another issue... Hmm... Haha. Until I understand that, the 'ol XG9 will have to sit on hold...
