I'd like to introduce myself to you, so sit back and relax. I'm a full time pro photographer living in the Netherlands. You can see my work at www.otografie.nl and some more over here www.classic-action.nlMy main subject is the 110 camera. It was my first ever so I've got a weak spot for them. I also collect the infamous Disc camera's and (to compensate?) 16mm sub miniature. Lately I started collecting early digital DSLR's as well, which I want at least in working order, preferably with their box, software and paperwork. In the near future I will make a dedicated page on my website for these digital dinosaurs. Thanx for your patience

Hi spryteboii, and welcome.
Historical digitals eh? Why not? We're not all mainstream on here!
Regards - John

Welcome!
Collecting early DSLRs should be interesting. Probably like collecting some of the early computers. No one uses them so they shouldn't command high prices like, for insteance, a Leica M2.
Come back often

johnI've never been mainstream and guess I never will be, so should feel at home than wayneOf course the price came down alright, but they somehow stay "en vogue", much more than an old pc or something alike. Being patient is still the best way of getting a good one for a good price. My Fuji S1, Canon D30 and the Kodak DCS 410 were not that hard, but the Nikon D1 is still very much in demand. Even when your cellphone has a camera with more pixels nowadays. regards to all of you!

spryteboii - Welcome to the Forum! While I have a few smaller-than-35mm Mamiya cameras in my collection, I never got into the 110s, so whatever information you can add will increase my camera knowledge tremendously, and I'm looking forward to it! (and the digital dinosaurs, too)!

Hi Ron, Should not be that hard, 110 has been very popular in Europe. Pentax and Rollei 110 are still very much in demand. In the future I will start using a Pentax 110 again. Regards!

Another 110 fan! ;D Welcome! I shoot a Pentax 110 a lot. Amazingly capable camera. There are quite a few pix here in various threads from that little camera, some good, some bad, but all fun. Roy
