Canon F1 & Servo Finder

While stationed in the Marines at 3rd MAW El Toro, California I saved up all my pay monthly till I could buy this outfit and still to this day own it.. 1974

That was my first digital as well. Still have it. Strange to think of a digital camera as vintage, but it is 15 years old.

I was trying to see if digital could replace my Hasselblads but I found the main concern was were the prints archival. Were the inks good for 100 years.

My first DSLR was the 1DMKII now a paper weight. Massive beast of a camera. I have since opted for smaller cameras. Still use my 5D MKII every now and then, but when I do serious landscape stuff, it's the Sigma which is technically a point and shoot but with with an amazing sensor.

I'm actually considering medium format digital next, either one of the Fugis or the new digital back for the V series cameras. But I'm not in a rush in the pandemic. I barely shoot anything lately.


I have the Nikon 9000 scanner though, so good combo with the film Hasselblads and the Rolleiflex.




This was a hard exposure to get, this was shot on slide film.

I know what they are. But I think we are drifting far away from the topic of the thread at this point.
