For those who are looking for a little more of a project, it’s worth looking at the Lomography Konstruktor F - a fun build-it-yourself kit that gives you all the parts you need to assemble a fully functional 35mm SLR film camera in a matter of hours. In a way cameras have lives too and have seen a lot of things in those lives. Mike might recall how, as part of the Swiss Photos research, I found the details of the early life (in 1935) of one of my cameras written in Swedish inside a box which came with the camera. Mike and others helped with translation from Swedish. I later found a photo of the Crown Prince of Sweden which may have been taken with the camera as the writing inside the box lid mentions that it was at the event where the photo was taken. I couldn’t wait to return to the office and load that first film. And that was the start of my photographic career. I wasn’t expecting to produce pictures for publication — we had a photographic department for that, and there were some pretty strong union rules about journalists taking pictures — but in an emergency, my photographs could be used.

I even drove from Peterborough to Manchester to take a shot of him holding his Beirette for a feature about cheap but very capable cameras for ‘Practical Photography’.) At that time, too, I was working with a youthful Don Morley, who often accompanied me on road-test photo shoots and who later went on to much greater things in the world of news and sports photography. But it was Neville Maude who guided me to my first camera. We test camera resolution, dynamic range, and noise under scientifically controlled conditions using two key testing tools: Imatest Master and DxO Analyzer. All DSLRs and mirrorless cameras are subjected to these tests and, in some instances, high-end compact cameras. Dynamic range (DxO Analyzer):This is a measure of a camera’s ability to capture detail in the highlights and shadows. We use DxO’s transmissive chart, which enables us to test a dynamic range of 13.3 stops. In college, I was in a program to go from high school to a PhD in six years (The Ford Foundation felt not enough PhD’s were being produced and jobs were going begging. By the time I graduated, the situation had reversed 🙂
A great all-round choice is the EOS Rebel SL3/EOS 250Dwhich boasts great autofocus and 4K video. It also features some grown-up specs, namely a 24.2MP sensor and a 3in vari-angle touch screen. Canon sees this as a way to tempt smartphone photographers to step up to their first proper camera. I was very much into model railroading as an older teen, and wanted a camera that would permit me to photograph both real railroads and model ones. Like everything else I am interested in, I thoroughly researched the subject matter and concluded I needed a 35mm SLR with interchangeable lenses. Further research indicated the Nikon F was the pinnacle of the type.

Resolution (ISO-12233):We use a resolution chart based on ISO-12233 from Applied Image inc to indicate the limit of the camera’s vertical resolution at the centre of the frame. The higher the value, the better the detail resolution. And there are some other cameras to talk about, but also for another time, or this will be a longer article than the main story! A bit later, having grown out of the 44a, and while still at school, I started to use my fathers’ Agfa Isolette 120 film folder (with the Bakelite top – not metal), which had his name written inside the leather case, and a date 1940. I am not sure how he came by the camera in the war years, which were spent in London, some time suffering TB, and having a major part of this right lung removed, and working as a junior doctor (he later was a chest physician!). I still have the Agfa Folder, and serviced the shutter recently. Nice topic, Mike. My father’s camera, a Balda Super Baldina, was probably the first one I ever used. He bought it for nine guineas on 30th January 1940, over 83 years ago, and I showed the receipt, complete with a stamp, for that in my first article for Macfilos, just over 8 years ago. I don’t recall having a camera of my own in my youth, but just after I got married in 1974 my father bought me an Agfa 110 camera. It broke down after a short period and had to be repaired. The photos I got with it, mainly of my older daughter, were OK, nothing spectacular. My first 35mm camera was a Rollei 35 and the improvement in quality was astonishing to my eyes. I paid about 60 quid for it in 1981, but a year later I sold it and bought a Nikon SLR and from then on I was on the slippery slope, although I did not have multiple cameras until the 2000s. In 2019 I bought another Rollei 35 at Photographica. To bring the thing full circle, I still have and use my father’s Super Baldina and another article I wrote for Macfilos gives details of that.All this is by way of suggesting further development of this article such as which camera has been in your family the longest and do you still use it today? Also, what is the oldest camera or lens that you have used to obtain pictures? Another strand could be, do you have a camera which was owned or used by a famous person other than a family member? Or better still has your camera been used to photograph a famous person? A couple of years later, I had to return the camera as Kodak lost a lawsuit against Polaroid for patent infringement. In exchange, I received a Kodac Disc. When I look at the pictures now they look extremely soft and grainy but I still enjoy watching them as they remind me of my childhodd. My first camera…Kodak Brownie 44a ( https://www.brownie-camera.com/9.shtml) given to me one Christmas, early 1960’s…
