old cameras

The basis for this collection was cameras, which were used by my family, a German, Glunz (Glunz, Hannover, Germany) plate camera and a Justophot "exposure meter", one Kodak Brownie, Dacora Digna, an old Ernemann Bob, my fathers old Praktica FX and my first SLR, Asahi Pentax Spotmatic.
About thirty years ago I started ferreting rummage sales, accepted and bought anything, which looked like a camera and had serious discussions with my loved wife.
Soon it was time to figure out what I am going to do with my cameras. Internet gave me an idea, why not build a virtual camera museum, and that was it.

Today the number is over 200 old cameras, their specifications, pictures and descriptions. Most of them, are not so called "collectibles" but I hope that on some page you will find the information that you are looking for.The prime goal of this collection is to present and preserve an example of a broad range of cameras and to to give a visitor an entertaining and rewarding trip to the world of the photography before bits and bytes.
