The Vivitar V3800N SLR is an awesome purchase for this price and is a better purchase over digital cameras. This is a reel camera but it is a professional SLR and good for those planning to learn professional photography. It is a must buy for all...:)

I may be ignorant or funny you need not say that i put this view to get to know about this camera any you need not suggest me on my basics......... may be you forgot the great saying that Ignorant is BLISS...... thank u

Mr. Sheshadri,please update your basics before posting here. This is a film camera, question of MP doesnot arise. This is a classic learner's camera, available in largely unchanged form over decades. I'm pleasantly surprised to see this on sale
You are a funny and ignorant man!!!

Super camera for a professional looking photoghraphy....
and its worth more than 10 times of its price...
u can break ones head wid this camera nothing happens to it .
it is very stable @ older stages also.......

It is good for:
1. Person learning the basics.
2. Person wanting to go back to film.
3. Person wanting to explore the film photography but is not willing to spend huge amount.

Note to Flipkart:
Launch the other combo: Vivitar V3800N + 50mm lens.

Today's world, you can opt for a digicam instead such cams where in you can see the results immidietly. Don't thing this is a camera for trial and error. You should be knowing functionality of such cameras first as there are no "How to books" or "User manuals" provided with this. Searched it online and downloaded the stuff.

When I opened the packing and assembled the lens found that there was dust on the lense from inside..was a shock.. tells that it was not kept in secure place in their god...
