    Not sure why I'm awake but great shot. Love the satisfying click of popping a lense on.

    Classic, I love old cameras too, and the focus on the lens in this one – it makes me want to get beyond the auto-focus mode I'm used to!

    Old camera's are cool, that's for sure. Quick question but do you prefer digital or film? Obviously you can just download your pics with digital but did you used to use the fluids? Is that a part of the process that's dying out?

    I did photography at school for a short time (I wanted it to be far longer but it's a long story) and I couldn't get enough of that quiet time in the dark room. Loved it!

    Great pic.

      At the moment it's about 50/50. I'll just as happily grab a film camera as much as I would grab my Fuji X100. And the good news is that Film Is Not Dead; it's making a rapidly growing comeback. 😉

    There's so much beauty in the mechanical parts of analog items. The gears, dials, and springs. Digital is great and all, but there is so much more in the architecture of moving parts.
