This is the season to be sentimental!

I still have an Olympus Trip 35 that I purchased in Dixon’s of Hemel Hempstead in 1979 with one of my first pay cheques. At the time it was a remarkable camera and it still is. It was my main camera through my formative 20’s and 30’s… during the last century as my kids remind me!

For photographers of a similar vintage, this link will bring a tear to the eye: http://www.olympus-trip.co.uk/

Have a good Christmas.

Have you modified your SX70, Mort? I have one, I must say I’ve not been very successful with it. I use the Image Pro mostly.

I have a Zeiss Ikon Contaflex. Focus on mirror is off, otherwise in great nick. Must get it fixed..
