35mm Film Photography Tips & Guides

Choosing your first film camera, comparing Olympus models or getting ready to load a roll? Start with the question you need answered. These guides take you from choosing a camera to using it, without expecting you to know all the camera terms first.

Choosing an Olympus MJU II

Start with our MJU II buying guide for questions to consider before buying. If several MJU names look similar, use the Olympus MJU model comparison to work through the differences. The name alone is not enough to choose between a zoom and a fixed-lens camera.

Ready to compare the camera itself? View the Olympus MJU II product page for its specifications and current condition options. Use the listing, rather than an older article, to check current availability.

Before and after your first roll

Read the MJU II common-faults guide before buying, then keep the MJU II shooting tips handy as you get to know your camera.

New to film more generally? Compare ISO 200 and 400 film, then follow our film-loading guide. Choose the guide that matches your next step, or browse all articles below.
