Were cannon mate 35mm cameras made by canon?

I recently got into photography and have been offered some very old 35mm cameras like the nikon L35AF. My dad recently gave me a cannon mate AE 21 and i can't find any information about the camera online. i was just wondering if cannon mate is a sub-brand of canon or maybe canon is the new name of cannon mate?

How to change aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and exposure on a Nikon D40?

I am a new photography student and just got my first DSLR camera. I already finished a semester of Digital Photography class, and we learned nothing about any of the things I mentioned in my question. But those seem to be the 4 basic principles of photography from what I have been reading online. I can't figure out how to change them on my camera at all. Could someone please tell me step by step (including what buttons to press and everything) for each thing? I am so confused. I mess around with my camera and think I am changing them, but my pictures never look any different. Please also explain what each one of these things does. Thank you so much! Much appreciated:)

Did I damage my focus motor? Newbie here. Nikon d7000?

Hey guys so I want to begin by saying I am totally new to DSLR photography.

When I first received my Nikon d7000 a couple days ago I latched on my 50mm f/1.8d lens. I didn't even know pressing the shutter button halfway down focused. So what I did for my first probably 10-15 shots the first hour I got my camera was I manually focused the lens by moving the lens focus ring then I would take the picture. All of this while my Autofocus was set to on. Now I realized my mistake relatively quickly and started only using the autofocus function. I didn't notice any problems but I read online the following day that that is a huge no-no. Especially with a lens like a 50mm f/1.8d because it uses the d7000 internal focus motor. I got scared when I saw posts saying that the internal motor has got to be damage/stripped/whatever.

However, when I was manually focusing it I didn't experience any hard resistance like other people talked about. Was it because I wasn't pressing the shutter button? Just manually focusing and then pressing to take the picture.

I would just like to here some more opinions on if my focus motor is probably damaged or not. What are some of the signs I should look for if it is?

I also have a Tamrom 70-300 vc and on some pictures it won't focus and take the picture. Is that a case by case basis and the camera settings or could it be linked to what I described above?

Thanks!

Do you agree with this?

i was reading a review of the Nikon D7100 and they said that it was the closest you could get to an FX camera without actually buying one

do you agree?

How much can I sell all this canon stuff for?

I've decided to switch to Nikon. Because Canon really disappointed. My 7d had to get repaired 3 times, focusing issue, program issue and something inside of it had to be replaced too. Had issues since day one that I bought it. Though it works now becasue it's been to the Canon factory three times and even though it works, I never want a canon again. I treated it very nicely and never dropped it or anything like that.

This is what I have:

Canon 7d
50mm lens
55-250 lens
battery
16 g extreme
8g extreme
Canon 450 ex 11

My 7d is barely used, because some of the repairs took like a month almost each. I will disclose that its been to the repair shop.
Added (1). Well I bought it new from amazon, and it had little problems at first then crocked totally like a month after. Yes I've heard how great it is but I'm sick of it. I had photography classess, and it was hard to go a month at a time without a camera for school. And my photo buddies all have nikons so we can borrow each others gear. Lol they always said it'd be bettter if I was a nikon. I still have the check and the box for this stuff too.
Added (2). I asked canon to get a different one, but they said they can repair instead. I only had the manfancture warrenty and that warrenty ended in 2013.

Is this lens compatible with Nikon D3200?

Good upgrade from bridge camera?

Would a nikon d7100 or d5300 be good.

The only features i feel would benefit me on the D7100 is the weather sealing, dedicated ISO button, and the better viewfinder.

Oh and by the way don't say that these cameras are "too advance" for me, I know the fundamentals of photography and could easily operate and use both of these cameras. I'm simply asking if its worth the extra money from people with experience.
