Old Cameras
One day I was walking through a flea market and saw a beautiful “Lubitel” twin lens camera. I asked the salesman how much will it cost, he said $20, I bought it without even thinking. Camera worked fine so I realized that I need to buy film and take pictures. Bought a pack of five 120 B&W films and started shooting. So that’s how it all started.
Here I will post my oldschool camera collection and photos I made with those, so check it out sometimes.
