Another proof - lots of these old cameras just work -  no better explanation.  I think we keep moving up and thinking we are gaining by leaps and bounds, then sometimes reflect back and try some of the old ones again and wonder why we kept replacing them over and over.

In boredom during the covid lockdown mess I ended up using my back bedroom closet as my camera store and kept going back there and getting something different to shoot and play with.  Through the process I have at least three older cameras that never made it back to the obsolete closet - they are now part of the active tool kit again.

Don't know what possessed me to quit using them in the first place.

In case you missed it there was a recent post in open forum about older cameras, and I suggested maybe we could get a forum for vintage (criteria to be established) camera forum to include all manufacturers, the only criteria being the vintage, or classic, or whatever designation. there seemed to be some interest, but doubt it will happen. But I would love such a forum.
