Camera Collection
posted in For World |My expanding camera collection, in order of acquisition:
Canon EOS Rebel G
This was what started my interest in photography - I loved the control that I had over the process. Now it largely gathers dust, though I should probably use it more.
Gateway DC-T50
In my humble opinion, this is a crappy little digital point and shoot that is only good when it is just by far the most convenient thing to pull out of a bag. That said, now I haul it around with my Holga for quirky shots when I don’t necessarily want to burn a 6×6 120 exposure.
Olympus E-500
I love this camera, my first and only digital SLR. I’m happy with everything but the autofocus, which I find to be rather unreliable (though it could absolutely be user error).
Panasonic K-1000
Technically this isn’t mine, but Marty has let me use it indefinitely. I like it because of the internal meter, which helps me get a sense of how the aperature/shutter speed/film speed all come together.
Holga N
Wow, this is just fun. How can you go wrong?
Kodak Duaflex II
While it is a little painful getting 120 rolls through it (I have one 620 spindle, and I cut off some of the extra plastic on the 120 spindle), the only roll I put through it was fun, and I got an incredible shot of Henry. Now it is loaded with B+W film that expired in 1983!
Diana+
I only started shooting with it today. Thanks for the great Valentine’s Day present, Robin.
