My name is Terry. After a 35 year hiatus, I've returned to film photography and of course, old cameras. While I've collected a few 35mm, 126, 127, and 6cm cameras, my real collecting is directed to subminiatures, beginning with a Pentax 110 Auto. My first wife was German, I was working as an industrial/PR person with Nikon professional status, and my wife's father gave her mother one of the tiny Rollei 35's. The Pentax 110 Auto had just come out, so I had to show her that Japanese technology was as good as German. Well, it still is! Now I've collected a bunch of the high end 110's, a few of the 16mm's like Minolta, Mamiya, Edixa, Rollei, etc., and a few Minoxes, as well as big Bronicas and Yashica 44's. I do my own developing, and scan the negs for digital reproduction. I prefer to get the negative right so as to minimize digital post production. I consider myself more of a technician than artist. I'm a retired US patent attorney. My other hobby is Amateur Radio (W4AON).

Hi Terry, welcome to the group. It's a little slow compared to how it was years ago. Please look through at the older posts and show us what you've got. Phil
