I am an extreme kind of girl. When I love something , I am completely obsessed with it.
Lately, as you might have noticed, I am completely into film photos.
Well... I have been spoiled! These last weeks, I got 4 new old film cameras!!!!
Can you imagine how excited I am?
From left to right:
A Praktika TL that was my father's first camera (the one that took photos of me when I was a little girl;))
A Rondine Ferrania Linear 7.5, a very old Italian camera (it was released in 1948) that a very nice lady who is helping us in the house gave me when she saw how much I was into old cameras. It was her grand father's camera. I don't have a clue how it works but I am certainly going to find out.
A Minolta SRT303 that belonged to my grand father and then to my father. My grand father was a wonderful amateur photographer. This camera is very dear to me, I am the third generation to use it!
And a Zenith that I got on ebay....

I got a zenith too and I'm loving it!
OOoh how exciting, I would love to see how each of he pictures are!
lucky you! they all look beautiful.
Minoltas prior to the 80s are seriously well built.
wow these are great!! i love the leather cases too.
Je sais comment marche la rondine, t'expliquerai si tu veux !
ah oui, trop de la chance !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
super! je suis sûre que tes photos seront magnifiques! Bacio!
lucky!! i need to take more film photos!
Wonderful! We have a shelf in our house that has about a dozen old film cameras, 4 of which are in our regular usage rotation (several that also came from my Grandfather). Unfortunately finding film for the others is near impossible. I have a bit of an obsession at the moment as well.
Bonne Chance! :)
Good for you! The italian camera is, of course, the best of the bunch:)
Il manque le rolleiflex... La semaine prochaine j'ai du temps... Encore pardon pour le faux bond avant les vacances.... Bises
What a great collection! I love the history to them.
Happy New Year!
How lovely to have your Grandfathers camera. You only do him proud with the beautiful images you capture x
Ah, I am jealous! These cameras look amazing, and the stories behind them make them extra special. I look forward to see the photos you take with them.
abundance! :)
Wow,what a collection!guess we will be gatés par the photos you take with them:)and the history of some of them make them more special!so your obsession is a kind of development.
whoa lucky! those all look really neat. it'll be fun to see how the photos turn out from each one
not excessive at all! enjoy each and every one because they all have their own unique ways :) can't wait to see all your film photos to come!
there is nothing wring with having lots of cameras…….I use different ones for different shoots, all have their own qualities/pecularities!
Rien à voir : je viens de découvrir ton catalogue musical et c'est géniaaal!
Oh, you're a lucky girl! Looking forward to seeing the results :-)
Happy New Year!
