I’ve reached that point of a hobby where I’m going through eBay listings of items marked “as-is”, “untested”, and even “inoperable”. It’s just easier to source certain replacement parts and doodads that way.
Bought one listing because, “Hmmm, based on that description I know where to start looking for the problem. 🤔”

Camera family photo time!
My nephew got me not film cameras and I’ve created a small Nikon museum starting with the F (that one produced in 1967) and ending with the FM2n (that one produced in 1995). I’ve made the F3, the first of the pro line to require batteries, my cutoff point so only models introduced before that so I stop spending money. #photography #cameras #filmcameras #nikon

Vintage Gear
Three mulitshot collages of an old zoom lens. The brand name is Montgomery Ward and it also says made in Japan.
I picked it up because it was cool, but I don't have a camera body that uses this type of screw mount.
A friend of mine thought it was a Pentax mount.
The glass is clear and the controls appear to work.

An old film camera from my collection
Don't know anything about it, not even sure if it is empty of film
I think it's a Range Finder from maybe the 50s
It's been in my boxes and shelves for at least 20 years

My #Dad in his late 30s 🥰
I took this photo, my one of my old #Kodak #FilmCameras - don't remember which model. I had a few different film cameras in 80s & 90s.

Took these beauties for a walk yesterday. Unfortunately, the metering on the #praktica seems off, so did a sort of overcast-cloudy around 8 or 11 sort of thing. It's a test roll anyway, half ruined trying to load it.
I'll be developing the Texas Leica film later, my test roll was a success (considering).

@alex_roddie Nostalgic. Takes me back to the days of the #Pentax ME in the late 70s when such cameras hung from the necks of the young and beautiful. In the end I went for a Canon AE1 which I still have and keep meaning to use again. #filmcameras #Photography.

Hey #believeinfilm friends,
Just finished my review for one of the most prolific SLRs, the Olympus OM-1:
https://www.analog.cafe/r/olympus-om-1-classic-film-camera-review-fjyv
I really enjoyed shooting it, though my prime SLR will still remain my trusty half-frame PEN FV. That said, the lens choice for OM-mount is incredible (400+ options!) which means I gotta get an adapter for my PEN.
Anyways, the review is ready, and I appreciate any feedback. :ablobblewobble:

A few days ago I posted the 1936 patent for the first Argus camera. Here is an example of the dream realized, a model A2B from 1939. It was, so far as I know, America's first camera built to take 35mm cartridges. It has a collapsible 50mm 4.5f lens that can be adjusted to shoot either at 6 - 18 feet, or 18 feet to infinity. I look forward to doing some gentle cleaning and shooting some film with it.

Hey, #believeinfilm friends,
If you're looking to get some film-related gifts, please consider https://shop.analog.cafe
I'd like to think that I put more effort and care into my #filmcameras and accessories than most shops. I test, package, and ship everything (except for the tees).
Even though a lot of stuff there is ancient, I still offer 30-day returns/warranty. Each new post gets its own description and images. Nothing's generic about this shop.
Most things are 20% off. Thanks! ❤️
