I aint got a photo of it yet, but I have just been given a Canon EOS 1000N. So I am going to try a bit of SLR film photography.
Used to have point and shoots, a few 110's and I still have an old brownie that belonged to my parents. Never could afford an SLR, mind you as a kid it cost enough getting films developed.

I'm actully quite sad that I sold my old Olympus OM10, it was a fab little camera. But here is my current oldie.
Still to get a decent pic out of it but that is all my own fault!
Good camera, is it the AF version? I use the Uni AF version and it's a solid piece of kit. Just a little too bulky for a 6x45

Hi Grant, no it just a super with a power winder attached. The first thing I did was take that off. Apparently it's a bit much for the mechanics on the super and can cause problems with the winding mechanism. Reduces the bulk quite nicely too. All I need now is to get myself back into a darkroom
Nice pic too

Ere, do you have a box for the winder ?
I sold my D70s today, and whilst I was rootin out all the boxes for it last week, I came across that 645 winder box that didn't go with the camera:bonk:you can have it.
Some peeps like to sell their equipment in original boxes, mostly saddo's like myself

What a bunch of soppy old sods, getting all doey eyed over some old cameras. 
It does you back to all the places you went with one seeing the pics doesn't it.
Looking at this thread, I thought that all I had for film these days was an ETRs kit (that is causing me a major headache) and my EOS 100 that I'm too silly to get shot of even though half the electronics don't work.
Then thinking about it, I've got a funny little 120 half frame thing somewhere, my lovely new clack and ..... probably the best of the bunch, one of these.

I still have this beauty and have not used it for about three years now
It takes absolutely fab pics and with the right film loaded is a real treat.
I never bought the auto-wind as it seemed pointless when you only took a dozen or so shots per spool.

It was a wedding togs camera before me. I only added a wide lens to the kit he sold me.
I do fancy flying with this but not sure about changing backs in flight

Well, if we're "finding" cameras now...
Actually, this didn't take no finding, I've been trying to shoot 36 frames of neopan 1600 with this for 2 weeks, 36 frames is bonkers when your used to 12.
Not the oldest, but definately retro, and the sharpest piece of plastic pas I've ever seen.

Thanks a bunch Joxby
I don't have a box for it, it is currently residing in a plastic crate in the loft along with the maddest set of bellows I've clapped eyes on.
PM on the way!

Couple of arty shots of two of my favourites
Daco, probably the most basic box camera you could find but very photogenic, I love the art deco look of it.
Voigtlander Barndoor Vitessa, the sexiest camera in the world ever full stop, no arguments!
