For this week's MM theme, I again, thought of an old friend who's been with me for decades. We spent a lot of nights solving endless problems together and she always got me through each one of them. Things have changed a lot since but I decided to keep her all these years. I'm sure someone out there might still have a slide rule hiding somewhere.

Macro Mondays: "Anachronism" theme
Straight out of the 1950s, my dad’s 8mm home movie camera is about the size and weight of a brick. It includes a rotatable exposure calculator on the side, part of which is visible at the top of the frame. A sticker on the inside of the film compartment door says that the camera was last serviced in February, 1960.

Taken for 'Saturday Self Challenge': "Mechanical workings"
The inner workings of a mechanical calculator. Specifically this is a pinwheel mechanism from a Multo calculator, I think dating from the 1950s.

Original Odhner Moder 127 with TI-30XllB hand held scientific calculator and K&E 4081-3 LogLog Duplex DeciTrig Slide Rule
Here is one of my potential Macro Monday captures taken today for the theme this week that is "Back in the Day".
This was my grandfather's calculator he used for work and for doing taxes. Can add, subtract and multiply.
Captured here at f/32, ISO 100 for 30 seconds.
The numbers I entered into the mechanical machine is the 'date' around when these were made.

This model belonged to and was well used by my grandfather. Stylus may not be original but has been with the machine since at least the late 1940s. Still works perfectly.
My contribution to Macro Mondays' challenge, "Pouch", on 14 Sep 2020. It's a well-used HP financial calculator, a relic from my pre-retirement past.
an infinite field full of cabbage
as far as my eye could see, a field of green.
I found this field in Broek op Langedijk (West - Friesland) Noord-Holland
a warm memorie of a nice summer.
Thanks for the texture my friend: lenabem-anna

THEME: BACK IN THE DAY
I have no idea why I'm still hanging on to this calculator, my very first one. I know it has helped me a lot in passing exams that I could have not done with a slide rule!
The calculator that got me through engineering school some 40 years ago. Just like back then, it gives the right answer most of the time.
