During a bit more than ten years I have written for the Finnish KAMERA-lehti magazine about twenty stories about old cameras. I have rewritten some of them into HTML format and so they are here for those who are interested to read them. There will be more when I´ll get them into HTML format. I haven´t had the chance to have the pictures scanned so you´ll have to wait a bit for the illustrations.

Note!: the oldest story is more than 10 years old so the price information given is hopelessly out of date. The next project would be to update those - qui vivra, verra.
