Interested in a 35 mm film camera. Not sure I understand the 1/2 frame idea vs the full size.

I have had several 35mm cameras including two half-frame ones. It's just as it says, a half frame. Same height but half the width. If you are making prints from those negatives then you need a dedicated half-frame carrier or some sort of mask for your enlarger.Interested in a 35 mm film camera.

They do, but most (or all?) locations have eliminated the in-store processing machines and send the film out so the days of one-hour processing are over. It's now several days. (they still make prints in-store, but that is different equipment)I intend to have the film processed at Walgreens if they still do it.
That would be my recommendation also. They last forever, use common batteries and there are a million different lenses available that will fit them.I have a Nikon FM with 1.4 Nikon lens. Works great. PM me for details.
If you do and it’s half frame you need to tell them so they can note it on the envelope.I intend to have the film processed at Walgreens if they still do it.
I had one of these. I also had the 85/1.4 for portraits. I was bad at photography. Sold it on eBay for more than I paid.I have a Nikon FM with 1.4 Nikon lens. Works great. PM me for details.
Just mail it to Adorama. Cheaper and better. Or used to be ?I intend to have the film processed at Walgreens if they still do it.
+2There are lots of quality SLRs from the 60s-90s on ebay for under $100...
I've used Sharp Prints (out of Eau Claire) for dozens of rolls of film and all have turned out well. It's mail order - you print a label and order form (shipping of the film to them is included), mail the film off, then get a Dropbox link to your pictures a few days later. They've averaged under a week for my orders, including shipping time. (You can have the negatives shipped back to you if you want.) I've tried Walgreens a few times over the years, but it was nerve-wracking as it took far longer than expected, and it totally felt like an afterthought to their business now.I intend to have the film processed at Walgreens if they still do it.
