Feb 19 2005

my name is Bob, and I'm a compulsive collector


I've come to the conclusion that I collect cameras now. I used to just have one, then I needed a
digital camera, then a new digital, then a toy camera, a TLR, a Diana, and it has just gone nuts
from there. Until this month, I didn't have any Polaroids, now I have five, with an SX-70 folder
on the way from E-Bay. I found three of the Polaroids today when I was checking the attic for
squirrels. I had completely forgotten about them. The sad thing is that I have more than are
pictured here. These are just the ones that won't fit in the camera bag(s)..

Nice little collection there Bob. I've become a bit that way myself. I currently have three digitals and three film cameras:

Canon 10D
Canon G3
Panasonic FZ20
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Olympus OM10
Canon QL17
Yashica Electro 35

The OM10 is the only film camera that works (unfortunately.) Collecting cameras is fun! :-)
