I'm 32. You?

I'm hoping there's a significant fraction of younger people getting interested in traditional photography. I know there's the Holga/Lomo crowd, and I see tons of old film cameras going on ebay all the time with multiple bids, so I suspect there are lots of young people getting into this.

Funny, I thought we had an old thread on this topic, but I guess I'm thinking of the similar thread on the LF forum.

54. I was recently told by a good friend that 54 is the new 34. Works for me:)

37. By young folks' standards, that makes me old. By old folks' standards I'm still young. Frankly, I don't much care what other people think of my age, it is what it is, a number, and I don't want to give up any of what I've learned in the last 37 years to make that number smaller, but I don't feel "OLD" either.

It was here on APUG, but I can't find it. Meanwhile, I am 47 and ready to get into trouble.

18. I know an 18 year old with an AE-1P and a 17 year old with a Pentax K1000 too.

27. Which has been said to be the new 27.

I can't find that old APUG thread either!

45. Remember growing old is compulsory, growing up is optional.

Old enough to know what I want...and young enough to still enjoy it.

Really 25, not makin' it up like the others :p I was using a Praktica BCA, then a Nikon FG, THEN a holga (and now I seem to have mostly vintage cameras around like some people have confetti after a party, hmm....)

Almost 69, photography is my only vice, I don't smoke, drink, or have sex, I probably won't live to be a hundred, it will only seem like it !

20. I have it on fairly good authority that my 645 is older than me. (Probably my AE-1P's are too)

The other day while clearing out an old studio at work, I discovered a roll of FP4 that expired the month I was born - quite an interesting experience!
I'm debating whether to keep it or shoot it :)

I think I'm older now than the last time this question came up...

All right. I'm 45. At the moment. ;)

22 years young!

My Graphic View 4x5 is roughly twice as old as I am
My Cambo SCX as best I can tell is about the same age as me.
Not sure how old my forthcoming RB67 is.

I have a friend who is 87, and he retired the year I was born :D
