Vintage Cameras...

1. +, 2. +, 3. +, 4. +, 5. +, 6. +, 7. +, 8. +, 9. +

I think I am in love...

If you had asked me a year ago what camera I wanted I would have said a DSLR but now I am totally uninterested with that. I think the Holga may have started something because all I want now is vintage cameras. I love the individuality, the textures, the charm, the anticipation of the unexpected...

I just have no idea where to start.

The design is also perfectly classy, somehow fits me better than the so-modern DSLR... and the photo result is beautiful. You make me think about having one in my hands right now! Gotta find it somewhere :); 13 August 2009 at 12:01

Unknown said...: I agree with you completely , I started out with film and got pushed into digital SLR's and about four months ago I started collecting vintage cameras , with my job " I run a eviction company " I get alot of awesome cameras , I think I have about 6 film SLR's " only about 20 years old " and i got a old " still in working condition Lieca , and four cameras from the 40's , I love the accordion style cameras . and three days ago I got a old " not in working condition " stand up 1878 camera " from the old west " . its amazing I wish it worked " still has black flash powder in it lol . So as a new vitage camera collector to another , I'm happy to see that someone has found the love for it as I have

happy shooting
