Hi Guys
I haven't posted in a while
Recently I've been feeling my photography has gone a little stale, but a few days ago while rummaging in the attic I came across an old antique 35mm film camera of mid 1950's vintage and decide to clean it up load some film and see what I can get out of it, this camera has no exposure meter, no auto focus and a rangefinder I suspect is well out of sync, it has a 1/25 to 1/200 sec shutter + bulb and a 43mm f3.5 mm fixed lens, this would have been a decent camera in it's day and it's a joy to hold in the hand, and I'm having the best fun using it and lets face if photography cant be fun what's the point, so the point of this post is if you're feeling you need a new challenge or your photography's gone a bit stale like I was, get out that old camera you've forgotten about years ago, load up some film and get back to basics not only will you have great fun, you'll learn a whole lot in the process.
