cameras

I was given these two old camera's today, the trusty Box Brownie that I cut my teeth on many moons ago, that was my elderly Aunts, It has been on 3 OE's to the UK and Europe and several trips around New Zealand, and the other little one is a 'Paxette IA' electeamatic.. was also used by my Aunt and then my parents when they did their OE to the UK and Europe in 1980.. put the box of my camera in the background so that I could get 3 generations of camera in shot..

Certainly some changes were made, good old box brownie!

How wonderful! Very lovely keepsakes & my how far technology has come.

@maggiemae @plumtree500 @kathysview Thanks ladies, so pleased when my Sister said I could be the 'keeper of the Camera's'.. Technology certainly has come along way..

@happypat Certainly a lot cheaper to develop digital, imagine if we had to develop all our 365 images...

I love seeing these old cameras... I had a couple of compact 35mm cameras in my younger days but never serious photographic kit. I don't think I would get on with it like I do digital... I take so many test shots! lol

They look great in B&W

@gazbadger Yep I do a lot of test shots as well... @janpenny Thought they deserved the era they came from..
