[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 93805, member: 6548"] Kathleen I didn't inherit any cameras but I did inherit a love of photographs and art in general. I have had various sundry film cameras over the past 3 or 4 years since I have been "into it" so to speak. Some of those cameras were fine tools like the Contaflex and the black Canonet. My sister was and is into Nikon and I have always thought the F and F2 cameras were the cat's meow. So I got me a FE, a couple of EM's, a couple of F2's one of them really nice, and a D5000 because it can mount any of the lenses. You may not have metering and AF but then I am used to that. The Yashica MF is pretty cool and the Rollei must be super deluxe to own. Holgas are the old school version of instagrams if you ask me...lol If I ever win the lottery I want to have a scaled up MF model of a F2 with scaled up models of 28, 35, 50, 85, 105, 180, and 300 lenses... :) I say if you dream you ought to dream medium format! haha [/QUOTE]
