How I started
 Started with a Zenith E; progressed to a Nikon EM; then got me a Nikon 401S; P-Ex'd that for my first Canon - an EOS 100, inherited another EOS 100 along with a 10 and a 5 from my dad, along with a Hassleblad (500cm) P-Ex'd the 'blad for the EOS10D. Added the 20D and some L glass over the last few months. Along the way I have picked up a few oddments that I just can't get rid of (nor wanted too!) they include a Zorki; a Yashica T4 (lovely sharp little Zeiss lens on it) and an MPP Microflex. I nearly had a Reid with a 2inch TTH lens, but couldn't afford it at the time :cry: .
My godfather was a semi-pro back in the early 60's he stopped for a while and I got him back into it when I got my Zenith. He taught me how to process my B&W stuff (Ilford ID-11 etc) and I still have the Smith's timer he bought me! Had great fun in the school darkroom, printing my own stuff and anything I could lay my hands on (including some glass negatives laying around the school d'room!) Now I "process" on my homemade PC!
