Your first camera.....

[ndt]

My 1st camera was a Canon 5D mark I (with a 24-70L), I've bought it in 2008 that were a lot of money for a student, I've economized all my money to buy that one. I shot 2000 shots in the 1st month and about 30.000 shots in 3 years, after that I've bought many others analog cameras (Hasselblad, Rollei, Leica...)

The first camera I bought was a Kowa, SET-r II. It was an interchangeable lens, leaf shuttered SLR. It took me through 2 years of college, before upgrading to a Miranda Sensomat!

Samoca 35.
I still have one but not the one I got in 1959. Bought one on eBay a couple of years ago just for the ,memories.

Ny first camera was a Yashica TL Electro with a 50mm f 1.8 lens. It was well used, but no longer with me.

Kodak 126 Instamatic. Two apertures and three focusing zones. The shutter went, "click." Those flash cubes were a trip. I developed the film in an Ansco tank and made prints with a Soviet suitcase enlarger. Not the greatest, but it did have one thing going for it that beat everything around--it was mine.

Kodak 110 something, then a Polaroid Swinger, then my first real camera ... Canon AE-1!

Kodak Instamatic, I do not recall the model number but I remember it had two settings: Sunny and cloudy. I got it when I was eight or nine years old, I believe.

Ditto. Then I got a Soviet suitcase enlarger and an old developing tank.
