My first camera
A Brownie 127 complete with the Kodisk Close-up lens and an unknown makers lens hood. The extra lens allowed me to focus down to 2 feet as long as I remembered my tape measure!
| 
My second camera.
A kodak Flashmite 620 which used 12 exposure roll film complete with the Actina 32 lens hood found in a junk bin in the photography shop.
| 
My 3rd. camera
A Vivitar 110. Complete disaster! Too small for home reproduction of images. Transparencies not too bad.
Poor picture of the camera, only one I could find on internet.
| 
My 4th. Camera
Olympus OM10 with a manual over-ride. Excellent introduction to SLR's. Had real fun and pleasure with this camera. Took me into the realms of bulk film loading, home processing of E6 and Ilford film FP4.
|
My 5th. Camera
Olympus OM40 SP (Picture is of OM40) SP for Spot-Metering. Thoroughly lovely camera, only fault it ate batteries as if there were no tomorrow!
| 
My 6th. Camera
A Nikon 601AF, Tokina 28-70mm Zoom, Tokina 70-210mm Zoom. Present equipment. Worked brilliantly for over 15 years, recently dropped it and now the back is held shut with tape and the Auto-focus has problems!
(Now retired and put out to rest)

Nikon 801 AF
My newest and current image recorder the Nikon 801 which I bought from Grays of Westminster for £99.00.
No spot metering but returns excellent pictures.

My First picture
Taken December 25th. 1958 with my present of the Kodak Brownie 127.
This picture does not look good if enlarged!
