I started photography in about 1958, I've been at it on and off since then, I'm 74, my first camera was an Halina 35x, you needed a pair of pliers to turn the fo using ring! Went through a few finishing up with a Leica M3 with just a collapsible 50mm f2 Summicron, father bought for me as a gift for some help I gave him, I regret selling that outfit(I have an M9)I've been down the darkroom route with 35mm and medium format, Yashicamat's and Mamiya TLR and a Rolleicird VB, again I regret selling those, my current film cameras are, Minolta Dynax 7, a Nikon F80, an Olympus Trip(lovely camera)a Bronica SQA, a Fuji G645i, a few years ago I was fortunate enough to sell all my darkroom equipment to a young photography student, she was unbelievably grateful, I had the common sense to hang onto all my film developing equipment just in case, i have metal developing reels! I'm now using it as after scanning some old negatives and putting some XP2 through my Olympus Trip and loving the results.
