I have been listing a few of my remaining film cameras lately. The bulk of my collection went a while ago, but I held on to some (some didn't sell).
Back a few or more years ago, I was overcome by GAS in terms of wonderful film cameras and spent most of my time "testing" cameras/film/developers/etc rather than actually using them.
Now that I have handled a few of my old cameras, I could feel the bug biting again.... maybe if I stick to one or two cameras and really tried to get used to them, I would be OK?
I've got a couple of very shiny late 50's/early 60's rangefinders that might not sell, and could be fun to play with, so why not use one/two.
Also, deep in the garage is a filing cabinet drawer full of developing chemicals, mainly unopened stop and fixers and one small container of Rodinal.
The Rodinal has had a little used, the air had been squeezed out of the plastic bottle, so I'm hopeful that I can use it again after some 8 or 9 years.
Can it last that long?
