donated some old cameras today

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2015.06.15

I donated an antique SRT-101 and two X700 bodies and some lenses to a camera shop; they're making a mural. The mural is a big jumble of defunct parts. In my case, the SRT-101 hasn't worked in many years, and both of the X-700 bodies had developed shutter problems. Not surprising given their many years of service and their humble cloth shutters.
