Re: Your gear list through the years FILM:
Kodak Instamatic 126 (early 80's)
Where it all started. It sucked, but hey, it was only 50 cents .
Aka-Rette 35mm rangefinder (rest of the 80's)
My first real camera. Gift from neighbors. Nice, sharp images, as long as I correctly guessed the focus distance and converted from FT->m in my head. ) Automatic NOTHING! Still have it.
Chinon DP-5 SLR w/50mm Auto Chinon lens (90's, early 2000's)
High school graduation gift. I got it and the lens new (or nearly new? It was in the original box) for a measly $100 when the department store where I had a summer job was getting rid of their camera department. Still have it.
DIGITAL:
HP Photosmart 215 Panasonic DMC-FZ1 Canon Powershot A540 (what I use now)
VIDEO:
RCA Small Wonder compact VHS camcorder (seems to be dead to the world nowadays ) (1993-2003) Sony Digital 8 camcorder (2003-present)
MOVIE FILM:
KMart Focal Super 8 silent movie camera (early 80's)
If I remember correctly, I broke it early in its life ). Lesson learned: Don't give an 8 year old any photo/film/video equipment of any great value.
