Description
The two cameras on the left belonged to my parents.
The two cameras on the right are my own.
It's neat to now own the camera I remember from childhood.
Thank you so much for your comments and faves on my last upload!
I was astonished and humbled by your generosity!
And thanks for stopping to have a look today.

Amazing how things have progressed. Nice presentation! I have a feeling that the Canon gets the best images... :-)

I am wondering just what camera you used for this shot Maria!!! A wonderful history. How things have changed. A splendid shot. Hugs. Diane.

He he... interesting historical reconstitution... and indeed, I was asking myself the same question as Didi...what camera for this shot ? And also, why are there so few artists authorizing the appearance of the EXIF info ?

great presentation of lovely machines.

Very nice cameras with good memories attached. I had a Brownie Box and loved it!Unfortunately, the Great Flood of '79 down where I hail from, took that and everything else the family owned down the Bayou and out to sea.

Cool one Maria. Leaves only the question, with which camera did you take this shot ;-)

Good heavens, Maria, a photographer's trip into the past! I remember the cameras well. Ansel Adams and Matthew Brady would be proud of you! The 1955 Argus Super looks so primitive. Incidentally, I intend using pics of old cameras in my future avatars, so stay tuned.

Great idea. I have a lot of my old cameras somewhere. :)

I had a Brownie box as a teenager.it was not such a great camera but I was thrilled with it.excellent memories you have.all I have that belonged to my mother is an antique dresser and some old dolls.I would sell them but never tried

The years do pass by! I remember playing with the spent blue lightbulbs as a child! ;)

Those camera's have seen the world and many wonderous images. Nice to see the giant leaps camera's have taken over the years. I think the digital age has made the camera more user friendly, and in turn hooked a whole new genration of photographers. Nice shot of some old and new memories~ Aloha~

Fantastic concept and great shot.

Great historical shot, Maria. I love the old cameras. I wonder if you can even buy flashbulbs for them any more?

A cool family camera portrait. I would never have this idea. And we can see the technological progress at the same time :-) Thanks for sharing Hugs Virginie

Now that is indeed awesome and you made a really pro shot out of it too. Excellently done. :) Could be fun to have a challenge to show all our old cameras in the photography Forum ?

Excellent photo idea. So you are the proud owner of a Canon! Excellent camera; I've been so tempted to get one myself. But job security is a concern at the moment; I have to be frugal. (Yeah, I know .. boring)
