My Brother got the Speed graphic, my cousin in Oklahoma the Yashica mat Twin lens reflex, and I got all the memories.
I honestly don’t know what happened to all the SLRs.
I remember the first time I looked at the ground glass on my Yashica when i was a kid. I was quite enthralled. That was ALMOST 60 years ago.
I almost chose nikon as my first “real” digitlal camera..a dslr.due to that Paul SImon song by the way. I thought it might be inspiring.
