Before Auto-Focus and Digital Cameras

Early 90’s saw the introduction of Auto focus cameras and lenses, prior to this it was manual focus which focusing and exposure was an art in itself. When digital cameras arrived film became almost obsolete over night.  No more changing rolls after 36 exposures now you could shoot as many surf shots as you wanted which was a huge bonus for water photographers..
