I joined this forum a few months ago but have yet to post. I started shooting at age 8 1n 1975 with a Brownie 127. I gradually worked my way through various formats up to 120 until 2003 when I bought my first digital. In 2009 I picked up a film camera again but shot very little and went back to digital again.

In 2015 I tried film again and it stuck. I now shoot as much film as digital, I collect cameras and have 50 or so that work, every one of which I try to use at least occasionally. Formats are 828, 35mm, 127, 120, 4x5 and soon 5x7. I use folders, point and shoot, TLR, SLR rangefinder and several Instant cameras using Instax, Polaroid peel-apart, 600 and SX-70.

I do all my own developing, black and white, E6 and C41, I scan to digital, I have had 2 darkrooms in the past but don't currently have one.
