Beginner question here: My grandfather gave me both of his cameras, because he’s suffering from Macular degeneration and can’t use them anymore. One of his Cameras is the EOS IX which works with the discontinued APS-films. Is there any way to still use this camera? Or will just be a (relatively) pretty paperweight?

The other camera is a Canon A-1 in a very good condition, so I think i have a decent foundation to start a new hobby.

    I believe the current offering takes the form factor of a 35mm cannister. It won’t physically fit in an APS camera.

      Ah, ok. I don’t know photography stuff. Just remembered hearing about this recently.
