My first camera was a square format polaroid which I got when I was 11 years old. I dropped it at Disney World and it was too expensive to fix.
My first 35mm SLR was a Mamiya/Sekor DSX1000. While I wanted a Pentax Spotmatic, the Pentax was out Of my meager high school sophmore budget. I think it cost About $150 back in '74. I sold it on ebay about 10 years ago. jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lucas Rijnders Sent: Sunday, October 15, 2006 2:49 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: OT: Your first camera On Sun, 15 Oct 2006 00:29:37 +0200, Jens Bladt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: First I used was my father's OM-1, in the beginning of the eighties.
