Hi there! Today I found a great set of pictures that I really liked, apparently taken by this particular camera. Now, I've always been interested in photography gear and I own a couple of digital and analog cameras as well, but I can't figure out what camera model it is that's pictured in this...

Hi, I have a few older SLRs and lenses that I would like to find a new home for. Would anyone be willing to help me establish the value of them? Please avise if this is not the right forum to ask this. Thanks.

This was this year's birthday present to myself (a little early). I had it checked out and the tech said it's darn near perfect. The only issue is that the top shutter speed is shooting at more of 250 than 400, but it's 50+ years old so I'm fine with that, I can just adjust my exposure. And...

Hello all, first post here, and it is a QUESTION! I have had no luck finding answers elsewhere, so here goes: What style of photography produced this image? By style, I mean print method. The corners are a silvery/metallic color/finish. It is part of a set and research into the topic tells me...

Good Evening, everyone! Over the past couple weeks I've picked up three "vintage" tripods from local estate sales. Each is used (obviously) but in very, very good condition! I'm thinking of selling two or all three, but would like to perhaps keep one. And that's where you guys come in...

Hi! I would like to see our photo experiment. With a photocamera and old photos, I and my girlfried walked through the historic center of our native town (South Italy - Basilicata Region - Pietragalla near Matera) and we overlaid these photos to reality to see what changed. This is the...

I went to my boyfriend's family's island in Maine for the first time this past summer, these are some of the things I saw in the (very old) cabins.

Got some nice camera gear and i want to start taking pictures even though I don't know much about film or cameras in general. I have a lot of hand me down camera stuff but I need information regarding cleaning, operating, worthiness(would i even need it), and value. I have no idea where to...

I found an old Argus C3 camera in a pawnshop for a buck but it was missing the coupling gear that connected the rangefinder and the lens. Early google searches for this piece came up with no success. I'd love to have this running for a friend of mine who loves Harry Potter and photography. Is...
