Hi! My name is Jani and I collect professionally used cameras and/or presscameras... or rather cameras that were designed for use by professionals photographers. So far I have mainly kept myself to european pre-ww2 cameras but have during last few years expanded to other directions too both post-ww2 and other areas like Japan and USA. After this text is link to my website. Unfortunately when it comes to updating my site I am quite lazy.. well I like collecting more. Also I like to repair and restore, or in some cases just conserve these old and battered cameras and if possible take a few pics with them. There is nothing more interesting then to open up a device that almost no-one has seen or opened or used for more then half a century. www.presscameras.org

Hi Jani,
Really cool collection!
I wished I knew your hobby earlier; I once had a Canon A1, given to me by a Dutch Afghanistan correspondent, which literally fell apart and was still working due to all kind of strips and glue... I should send it to you in stead of scrapping it:-

Welcome Jani ! Looking forward to your posts. Most of what I have is 35mm, but I have three old Crown / Speed Graphics in my collection, too (among a few other things).
