Like others I stumbled upon this thread while researching a couple of cameras. I like collecting cameras and using them. I have a couple of Nikon DSLR's and a NEX. But my everyday film shooter is one of my Olympus Trips. My Minolta XG2 bets a few rolls through it too.
I have been collecting cameras for a while now and must have nearly 90. I will pare down my collection at some point and start to specialise. but in the meantime new cameras keep popping up like mushrooms on the lawn.

Welcome, Phil. I'm not exactly new but wandered off for, what Mickey reminded me, was exactly a year. It's always good to see (or at least hear from) someone who can spell specialise correctly!  |

Welcome Phil, we all share the same sin...:-)
And, there are people on board who write things different like: ik specialiseer in Zeiss Ikon.

Welcome Phil, we all share the same sin...:-) And, there are people on board who write things different like: ik specialiseer in Zeiss Ikon. Hans Thanks both of you. Hansz, Ich habe auch spezialisiert auf Zeiss Ikon. Ich habe ein Contina lll, ein paar Nettars, ein Contax ll, hundert Jahre alt ICO, und eine Werra Mat. probably the most cameras of a single brand. Although strictly speaking not same brand.
Edit: It occurred to me you are probably Dutch. Es tut mir leid für die Deutsch! |

Yes Phil, I'm still Dutch:-)
But never mind, we are quite fluent in German here...
As member of the Zeiss Historica Society (US based - nothing German here) I'm very interested in your collection and all the type/model/body/lens numbers of your collection.
