Default Just bought my first film camera..... again!

Just joined the forum.

After my first camera at 12 which my father bought me on holiday, Kodak Instamatic 25 (also re bought), last week I got the next one again, a Praktica Super TL, almost new condition.

Followed b y the lucky find of the 200mm hanimar and awaiting delivery of the Tessar 2.8 (one returned to ebay as it was NOT ad described.... faulty.

I have no plans to re buy for the third time my Nikon F Photomic FTn Apollo, or Nikkormat FTn.

But as a pro sports photographer I will be shooting mono film (I have bulk loaded 125asa (sorry iso ), and readied my Patterson tanks ilford developer etc for a weeks time.

I have no intention of returning to a darkroom, never liked it even when I had all the good gear, but enjoying the return

Bought and sold a lot of gear over the last fifty years but the Pentax 645 is the only camera I regret selling. Enjoyed seeing the pic.

This is a late response, but I wanted to say welcome back pure photography, again. I have a Pentax 6x4.5 autofocus. I bought it new when they came out, I enjoy shooting today.
