1973
A 4-channel receiver from Sansui’s first quadraphonic series. The receiver makes use of the dimensions and the weight of 19kg a powerful impression. The performance of 4x30 watts at the time was high. Everything works like 40 years ago.
This receiver cabinet has been painted white to match the furniture immediately after purchase in 1974 for the young female owner. The white color layers I have rebuilt so the QRX can spend his life with me in a white case.

Ein 4-Kanal Receiver aus Sansui's erster Quadraphonic Serie. Der Receiver macht von den Abmassen und dem Gewicht von 19kg einen mächtigen Eindruck. Auch die Leistung von 4x30 Watt war seinerzeit hoch. Alles funktioniert wie vor 40 Jahren.
Dieses Holzgehäuse wurde gleich nach dem Kauf 1974 für die junge Besitzerin passend zu den Möbeln weiss lackiert. Die weissen Farbschichten habe ich neu aufgebaut, so das der QRX sein weiteres Leben bei mir weissem Case verbringen darf.
The analogue EOS 1-family: the EOS 1 from 1989 (top left), the EOS 1N from 1994 (top right), the EOS 1N RS from 1995 (bottom left) and the EOS 1V from 2000 (bottom right).
(Each of them in the HS-version with Power-Booster),
Big, heavy, durable, fast, reliable and so cooooooool!
This camera has a folding frontsight and target has no shutter. The esposure was made by removing the lens cap for the time deemed necessary and this cover, familiarly called" hat", gave rise to a tasty anecdote. The photographer, maybe Eric Solomom, had been commissioned to photography a group of kings and heads of state gathered in Berlin in the early '900. The camera mounted on a sturdy tripod, the assistant next to it, in front of the statesmen, the camera with his headd covered with an hat. The photographer was struggling between the group and the camera and when he thought that everythings was in order shouted to his assistant to remove the cover from the lens:- Hat off !!!.- Incredible, like one man only, kings and heads of state discovered his head.
L’apparecchio ha un mirino a traguardo ripiegabile ed è privo di otturatore . L’esposizione si effettuava semplicemente togliendo il coperchio dell’obiettivo per il tempo ritenuto necessario e questo coperchio , chiamato familiarmente cappello, dette origine ad un gustoso aneddoto . Il fotografo , forse Eric Solomon , aveva ricevuto l’incarico di fotografare un gruppo di re e capi di stato riuniti a Berlino nei primi anni del ‘900 . La macchina montata su un robusto cavalletto , accanto ad essa l’assistente , di fronte gli statisti con la testa ricoperta dalla tuba . Il fotografo si affannava tra il gruppo e la fotocamera e quando ritenne che tutto fosse a posto urlò al suo assistente di togliere il coperchio all’obiettivo :- Giù il cappello ! - Come un solo uomo regnanti e capi di stato si scoprirono la testa .

I bought this Voigtlander Bessa L from Ffordes in Inverness on the way up to a holiday on the Orkney Islands.
I had been really looking forward to visiting Ffordes as it is the biggest classic camera shop in Scotland. Unfortunately the shop was a big disappointment.
I had been looking forward to satisfying my old camera fetish with a browse through the shop's extensive stock of beautiful old cameras, but it turns out you can't do this. You have to browse Ffordes website before you visit the shop, and when you get there you tell the sales assistant what you want to see and he then brings it to you from the back of the shop. Fortunately I had browsed the website and I had some ideas for things I'd like to see, but I would still have liked to browse the shop and maybe get inspired by seeing something unexpected.
Instead Ffordes operate more like a kind of classic camera version of an Argos catalogue shop... you browse the catalogue (or rather the website... and before you get there!) and then a minion brings you what you have asked for.
I asked to see a couple of things I'd seen on the website: a Canon 7 rangefinder and a Voigtlander Bessa L with 15mm lens. Then can the 2nd disappointment... the Canon 7 didn't work. I can only hope they inspect cameras before they post them a bit more carefully than they do before they list them on the website!
When I finally decided to buy the Voigtlander I got the final nasty shock... Scotland's biggest film camera shop doesn't actually sell film!!!!!! In fact I'll just add a few more exclamation marks at this astounding and fact... !!!!!! I wanted to use my new camera on holiday and it was unlikely I would find the film I wanted in the Orkneys as it was late in the day and I wasn't sure I'd find any elsewhere in Inverness either. In retrospect this stupidity should have cost Ffordes the sale, but I decided to risk it and get the camera anyway. Fortunately we passed a branch of Boots that was still open and I managed to get some film there.
Now I have my little Voigtlander I love it... it has some minor damage to the top corner near the shutter button, but since I bought this camera to use I don't mind that it has signs of use... in fact I think it adds some character. And the 15mm lens is spectacular!! But I'm afraid I can't recommend a stop at Ffordes to browse some beautiful cameras.
I have already posted some shots from my first roll of film in the Bessa L.

May is ASIACAMERA RETRO month, and I have been re-visiting my cameras from the past…I grew up with Nikon, and my first Nippon Kogaku camera was a Nikon F2S. Since my original copy was sold long ago, I re-purchased a mint copy from a Japanese collector in Tokyo via Ebay.
I had forgotten how heavy this beast is…all metal. It used “state-of-the-art” LED’s to indicate the exposure, which you set manually. Everything (except the meter) worked without batteries. You set the shutter speed and aperture based on the meter, and based on your knowledge as a photographer…
This copy, manufactured in 1976, looks mint – I thought of the waste of a pro Nikon camera sitting in a collection for 38 years instead of creating images. This was the camera that pros used in the 1960-70s … Canon was just a shadow of its current form.
I thought of the irony that this image was taken with a technology that wasn’t even dreamed of in the days that this camera was manufactured. Also, the lenses that were made back then to fit on this camera can also fit on the newest Nikon DSLR (with manual focus of course). This camera is wearing a 1990's auto-focus Nikon 85mm lens.
The crappy plastic Sony kit lens that I used to take this image (in auto-everything mode of course) decided to use the widest aperture, resulting in a narrow depth-of-field, so not all areas of the cameras’ body are in focus. With a manual lens, as I usually use on my NEX7, I think I would have set the aperture to f/8 for better DOF and used a shutter speed of 1/100 (to avoid camera shake).
I’m running a few rolls of film through this camera for nostalgia sake…
This is slightly older technology, but it is still used, and does the job well. This is part of the sound board at my church. I am not real smart when it comes to that type of technology, so I have no idea what each of the buttons and dials do, I just know they look interesting!
This image uses repetition, lines and shapes, balance, and rule of thirds.
I used the automatic setting on my Fujifilm Finepix camera. This photo used indoor lighting and was taken at 5:03 pm.
In Photoshop, I adjusted the brightness and saturation.

Pentax ME Super with SMC-Pentax M 50/1.7
This camera is compact, and nicer than I expected. AE Exposure seems to work fine, and the mechanism appears to be in good shape.
Got it from a colleague that went digital together with a Pentax MG
UPDATE: The camera IS nice, the Aperture priority is spot on, and the manualmode is good. Now I need more K-mount lenses
Full descritpion here:
My favourite Camera and Lens combo though my newly aquired (May 2011) Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is gaining fast.
The Lens has a Hoya UV filter mounted.
P.S. never get a non USM lens
