I have this photo class as an elective. And the teacher wants me to get a 35mm adjustable camera. But my dad has a 52mm adjustable camera. I'm wondering whats the difference. The film or something?

35mm and 52mm is different sizes of film
although ive never heard of 52mm but if you have to purchase a 35mm i would suggest a nikon n65 |

There is such a thing as a 52mm camera.
It's just more hightech and expensive. |

suffice it to say, you can't use the 52 for 35. you need to get a 35. they come cheap, you can get a 20 buck one.

Unless you are doing large format 52mm is a expensive way to go. 35mm is your basic film format.
