    My oldest 35mm camera is my Nikon SII around the mid 1950's my oldest camera { sorry no photo at the moment } is a Zeiss Super Ikonta 530/2 - 6X9 circa mid 1930's . I love 6x9 format cameras and also have a Mamiya Press S { 1964 , my year of birth } and a positively modern mid 1990's GSW690III 😀

    Less practical than a Smartphone 😂

    I wonder if todays mobile phones will hold as much appeal in 80yrs time 😀

    They don't hold half as much appeal to me even now!
