A family portrait of my three TLRs...

The Super Ricohflex is not a Photoshop miracle I got it THAT mint, right out of a time capsule.

Cool! I have a Super Ricohflex of that same vintage!!! I've had it since I was a boy. When I got it, it was less than 20 years old...now it's 53 years old! Shutter still functions smartly, iris is clean and not gummed up...case still looks pretty good too!

I bought mine from a 25-year old guy who got it from his grandfather (a collector) about 20 years ago... so it spent the last 20 years in storage

I've actually started collecting a few months ago. I haven't shot film in what seems like forever, so no I'm not using them... but I might one day...

Thanks, guys. These are beautiful objects.
