Hi all,
I have an idea for a project, my mate has been trying to get me to tag along to WWII events with him, but he always wants to get dressed up in authentic gear.
Which I don't mind, but I really don't think my D60 would fit in with the theme, so, he has offered me his D40 + old manual 50mm f/1.8 IF I can fit it into an old case and make it look like a WWII camera
Problem is, can anyone give me a list of cameras that were used around that time that would accomodate the D40 insides, not look out of place with the 50mm f.1.8 on it AND is cheap and easy to get my hands on??
Obviously, I will want to purchase a broken one to rip apart, wouldn't want to wreck a working one!
