I never took a picture of this one like I did my other cameras. I got this for Christmas from my boyfriend. Now I want a Chaika 2! I like that this one has a meter but it doesn't have a B setting. It is still very cute and since it's small I like to take it to the store and bug my boyfriend by taking pictures of him. I enjoy buying wrapping paper and I found this paper underneath my bed the other day so I decided I would use it for pictures. I used my strobe and umbrella with this. I can't wait to get another one!
Some new American made Jabo marbles testing out the capabilities of my new Kodak Z990 camera. I have noticed that the color balance on this one leans a hair to red, as opposed to the Z981 that tends to lean towards yellow.
Strobist: Two speedlites on lightstands, one in her face (no gel), one from behind where the pink spot is (pink gel). I cloned-out that lightstand. No light modifiers.
We did this fashion shooting with a compact camera (Canon G10), not just for the fun of it (although it was fun!), but also because of the faster shutter. I tried the cam up to 1/3200 via cable some months ago - worked fine. This time we used RF transmitters and I used a shutter speed of 1/500 s. Also fine. => Perfect ambient under-exposure for a really dramatic sky :-).

This is how it works in detail:
Leica's flagship in 1938, the IIIa with collapsible 50/2.0 Summar lens. Now I can take photos just like Henri Cartier-Bresson!

The Fotochrome camera is one of the most unusual cameras in my collection. It was made by Petri in the 1960's - I don't think these ever took off.
This one is in NEW condition.
A few of the Arguses, (Argi?), in my collection. Argus A on the top shelf and others on the next. The cabinet is older than the cameras, with hand formed glass in the doors.
A great addition to my collection! It is as new and fully functional! This model is the last 35mm film camera in production when digital pretty much took over.
The Nikon F75 (sold in the United States as the N75 and Japan as the U2) was the last consumer-level autofocus 35mm SLR camera sold by the Nikon Corporation beginning in February 2003.[1] The camera replaced the similarly consumer-targeted Nikon F65.
The Nikon F75 is still sold cheaply on the used market, and is valued because it can drive Nikon's newest lens designs, including those with AF-S and VR.
There was a version, dubbed the F75D (N75D) that featured a date-recording back.
Talk about high resolution, telephoto capabilities! This camera sports a 240" inch (that's 6100 mm!!) focal-length lens; f-8. If this were a digital camera, it would have a resolution of about 3-5 GigaPixels!!!
Thanks to avidday, here is more information: That camera was a prototype, built to go into the bomb bay of the RB-36 and was intended for used for forward looking high altitude reconnaissance missions in the late 1950s. It was a 240" f/8 folded optics design using 18x36" negatives, and was an evolution of the smaller 240" f/11 camera which flown operationally onboard the RB57/Canberra over central Europe in the latter half of the 1950's.

Finest American TLR and one of the finest American cameras of any type, the Ansco Automatic Reflex aimed straight at the Rolleiflex market (expecting that the Rollei would not return to the market after the devastation of WWII) and was priced accordingly - In the event, the Rollei Automat returned just as the Ansco was getting started, and by the end of the 1940s, Rollei had won. The Ansco used the same lens and shutter as the much less expensive CiroFlex C and E models, but it was a very effective combination and left the Ansco nothing to apologize for.
This particular camera is the original 1947 model, without flash synch - hence the professionally installed Heiland synchronizer instead of an ASA flash post.

And here's the 1949 Wards camera catalog with the Ansco and the Rollei listed side by side:

Sharing high honors among American 35mm cameras with the Argus C44, the Kodak Signet 80 is the last 35mm camera to be made in the USA with interchangeable lenses. The body of the camera is made of Bakelite plastic (like many earlier Kodak and Argus models), but workmanship and finish are first rate. Shutter speeds run from 1/4 to 1/250, the view/rangefinder is exceptionally good, it features rapid spool-less loading and a two-stroke rapid wind, plus a built in uncoupled EV system light meter. Lenses available were a 35mm wide, 50/2.8 triplet normal, and 90mm telephoto in a slick bayonet mount reminiscent of some Bell & Howell movie cameras.
With the world's last supply of Polaroids in jeopardy. Photographers around the world have turned into brutal savages, dividing into tribes to pillage ebay listings. It is utter madness. In this polaroid wasteland only one man can unite them all. The Roid Warrior; from the land of the Impossible.

The box for the Kombi was described by Kemper as a "cloth covered carrying case", which is accurate, and does sound better than "box". The camera fits only one way, as the inside has a slot cut in one side to fit the shutter actuator.
The Olympus Trip 35 is a 35mm compact camera. It was introduced in 1967 and discontinued, after a lengthy production run, in 1984. The "trip" name was a reference to the intended target market - people looking for a compact and functional camera to take on holiday with them. During the 1970s it was the subject of an advertising campaign featuring David Bailey. Over ten million units of the camera were sold.
This belongs to my mother. I do not know if it still works, but I am going to give it a try nonetheless.
In Italian "camera con vista" don't indicate a camera with an expensive operating system requiring a 2 Gb memory card to run, but a room with a view.
This was really a "camera con vista" (and a great view) before to be heavily damaged by the 1887 quake which destroyed a lot of town and villages here in Riviera.
Here we are in Triora (Imperia, Liguria - Italy), in the high Argentina Valley.
If you go there don't forget to buy the wonderful Pane di Triora (a tasty rustic bread).
Una camera con vista (strana associazione di idee tra un sistema operativo e un rudere...) a Triora (IM), nell'alta Valle Argentina.

This camera has had a long and full life. Originally a staff camera at the Scranton Times newspaper in Pennsylvania, it served under heavy use until its meter stopped working and one of the stalwart reporters decided to save the company some money by fixing it himself. Unfortunately he removed the meter assembly without first removing the prism and ripped the needle off of the meter... so he gave up on it, chucked the parts in a box and gave it to a local camera dealer, who then gave it to me. I soldered a piece of fine music wire to the stub for a needle and fixed the electrics so that it worked as long as you held it level (if you tilted the camera, the meter told you more about the weight of the solder than about the light level). It then served more years of hard duty for me so that my pretty black one could stay home and not get beat up. Eventually I decided that it would be more pleasant without a meter (they had quit making mercury batteries by this time), so I removed the assembly and the mask around the screen and turned it into sort of an OM-0. Then I replaced its tired leatherette with blue denim, and hunted until I found an authentic pair of mid-1970s Levis jeans to donate the orange pocket tag for the back (the tags are red & white on modern Levis).
The OM-0 is retired now, enjoying a well earned rest among friends.
I love the silhouetted trees against the clouds and blue sky. Taken with Cooper's collar camera.

Did you know that foxes like Canon?
I didn't know either. Foxes in this area are used to being fed by strollers and hikers. I think this fox took my DSLR as ransom for food.

These 3 are old photos taken by by father back in 2004. Unfortunately I don't know the model.
I like its boxy, angular design.
Thanks to dusqweeze, I now know this is an Argus C3 camera. A low-end camera produced between 1939 to 1966.
I'm sticking with the themes from letsgetcreative 2014, since I started in July with that list. So even though it is now 2015, I am continuing with the old themes. It was raining out today so i didn't get to go out to take pictures, so instead here is a pic of the two cool old cameras my dad found in the attic.
