Classic Camera Collection

Why would anyone collect old cameras, they might be dusty, broken and they for sure use film that you have to develop in smelly chemicals... My story can be found here: How it started.

camera List of all cameras
Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, the collection keeps growing. Not that I'm specialising on a certain type of camera but every camera in my collection has something unique, something interesting and well, lately I've been collecting small, modern cameras, from the start of the automatic era from the late 1950s up till the rise and fall of APS cameras during the late 1990s. In other words, he camera categories are becoming rather limiting so it's time for a complete list of all cameras in my collection.


documentation Instructions and other Paperwork
More so than the cameras themselves, the paperwork shows the real age of things. Below some of it. The documents have been scanned and resized to be printed. I have lots of original material, from user manuals, books to catalogues, just ask me and I might be able to help you.
Below is just a small sample, more online documentation is linked through the description page of specific cameras. A complete list of all documentation available on this website, refer to the list of all cameras and documentation on this site.
