Minolta XL-Sound 84 :: Super 8mm

The Minolta XL-Sound series are straightforward but powerful motion picture cameras that shoot Super 8mm film. Boasting a much wider zoom range than the 42 or 64 models, the XL-Sound 84 is also the only model to natively shoot at 24fps, making it a seriously formidable motion picture machine.

True 24 FPS — Modified & calibrated for cinema-standard frame rate

CatLABS X-Film 100 :: Color

Got this as a birthday present for my partner, captured the most beautiful and vibrant pictures from our recent vacation in Zipolite! Had no idea which camera to get and the attendant at the shop was very knowledgable and showed me plenty of options and pros/cons to each model. Thank you x1,000,000 times over!

Minolta Freedom Zoom

Great film

Lucky SHD400 :: B&W

I had a great experience at the store! I actually went into the store looking just to pick up some film, but saw the Olympus bought it and very very happy with it. It's a perfect little point and shoot! I received great service at the store as well!

Olympus Stylus MJU

Very happy with the results with black and white pictures came out great. I used FPP monobath to develop.

BFC is a great shop. The Film Developing Membership is a fantastic way to have your processing ready to go. Pick up a prepaid mailing label. When you're done shooting, drop your film in the mail from wherever you are, and it's done lickety split! Perfect when you're traveling or just walking around.

Fujifilm Instax :: Square (twin pack)

Purchased my camera online, it was a very easy experience. I’ve also shopped in the store as well, so fun to visit and shop at Brooklyn Film Camera. Such a professional staff that’s most helpful with all customers.

Great customer service! Bought my first ever film camera from them and they answered all of my questions, made recommendations even gave me some tips and tricks just an all around perfect experience.

You have to be tired of the sterility of digital by now. The Expired Film Club is a fun way to try out older stocks and put some unpredictability into your life and art. You never know what you're going to get. Occasionally, you'll get a new, current stock that's hard to get. When Kodak relaunched a few months ago, BFC included one of them. It was hard to get at the time. It was awesome! The Expired Film Club is a perfect way to let go of digital perfectionism.

fast shipping thank you!

Pentax K1000 has served me so well. Extremely happy about it and the photos it takes is unbelievable

Pentax K1000

Awesome camera and in wonderful shape. It’s a Christmas gift so we will use it over the holidays. Can not wait!

Hasselblad 500CM + 80MM T* F2.8 | Fully Refurbished

Great camera, great staff, works perfectly. I have bought a similar camera off of eBay before, but the colors came out so dull. The colors from my cam are so bright and clean. I now believe the added inspections at Brooklyn film camera prevent you from making a bad purchase online. Thank you!!

Yashica T3 / Kyocera T Scope

Very satisfactory service. Thank you.

BFC Gift Card

Just started using my new Minolta Hi Matic AF2 35mm point & shoot camera. I’ve been enjoying the experience of thinking carefully before taking a shot, unlike the digital process where many times I’m simply over shooting a subject. The camera size is perfect for street photography !!!

Minolta Hi Matic AF2

The only store that had what I was looking for in stock and super fast delivery. Thank you...Thank you... Thank you!

Kodak Portra 800 - Color

the best store and the best camera. so happy with the decision to get my camera from brooklyn film camera 🤭🤪😎

Pentax Espio 80

Excited to use the round frame for the first time.

Polaroid 600 :: Round Frame Edition

great stuff!

Kodak Portra 400 Color

Great honor to shoot rare classic films that are long discontinued and to turn what would otherwise go to waste into art. I got some cool funky effects though some expired films aren’t funky. I can’t change the subscription online though; I would always get an error.

Expired Film Club

Liked their services!
