CAMERA HOARDING

I’ve been in a battle within myself lately questioning if I have a problem because it seems like every day a new camera is being delivered. Some were purchased as back-ups due to the thirty plus years of old technology and I’m afraid I won’t be able to find a dependable version later on if one was to finally enter the golden gates of shutter-bug heaven. I rationalize my inner voice by telling myself this and that it’s just part of the sickness that most of us photo-makers get infected with. We buy tons of old film cameras to see which one will remedy our need to achieve our personal aesthetic. Which camera feels best in our hands, which is fun to shoot with, which one will convey our message and also which one simply looks cool and entices us to shoot more. All I know is that I’ve been having a lot of fun hoarding over the last few weeks and adding cool little chunks of industrial design history to my arsenal. I can’t wait to show you guys what’s on the way from Japan and Germany. Update coming soon.
