I started collecting cameras most from the late 1940 to early 1950 era after I lost my digital point and shoot camera a few years ago. Now I have a collection of Kodak Retina, Rolleicord, medium format folders, and various rangefinder/viewfinder cameras. At first I have purchased my cameras from Ebay but had to stop due to hassles from the vendors miss-representing the camera's condition. Now I find better selections from local second hand stores and local online ads. I have about 15 working classic cameras and more in repair. When I get the cameras I would restore them to operational condition and use them for a while. I have one with me all the time. They are a lot of fun in hunting, fixing, and using them. I still do some digital photography (purchased a DSLR a while back). I am currently using a Kodak Retina IIIc that I purchased a year ago-takes beautiful pictures. |
