    Well, my "new" camera is about 40+. My "grandaddy" was built late 1800's. They range from a frankensteined new-vue 3x4, a "Brand" 4X5 view, 4x5 seneca #9, conley 5X7 to a Century View 8X10. And just bought another conley #1 5X7 And you are right. There is no thrill like taking a junker, reworking it, and making a working piece of equipment again.

    I only use old cameras and have done so for a while, you make so many friends with them, and I vary rarely get anyone refusing to let me take their picture, and I just love the results with my old folders or tlrs,Richard
