Hi all, I am a relative newcomer to the world of photography, having merely dabbled and snapped this and that in a casual manner over the last 15 years or so. It's only now that I am keen to get a bit more serious about photography, starting with hopefully getting a proper understanding of ISO, stops, lenses etc.
I have a Nikon D3100 as my DSLR choice along with a couple of lenses purchased over a number of years, and recently have started gathering a few film cameras. So far I have collected:
Kodak Vest Pocket Model B
Zorki 4 w/ Jupiter 8
Halena MW 35 AF
Coronet Ambassador
Coronet Prince
Kodak Brownie Vecta
Minolta X-G1
Minolta X-700
Minolta 110 Zoom
Praktica BC1
Praktica L
Kodak Retinette
Instamatic 104
Holga
Yashica Electro 35 GSN
Quite a haul indeed, but all were cheap enough so I can experiment with them and keep the ones I like best.
I am keen on landscapes, industrial and abstract photos. I would like to get in to night and astro photos too at some stage. Hopefully by joining here I can chat to likeminded folks and perhaps join a club in Ireland as I don't really know anyone I can go on shoots with or learn from etc.
I have a website too that I have the odd photo on (not a great deal as of now but it will host more in future). http://www.iancortina.co.uk
Thanks!
