I was born in the deep deep analog world.
I grew up with the Robots (nice German Cams) of my father. he giftet me a robot junior when I was 10 years old. unfortunately no pictures survived of theese times. with 14 my grandma bought me a Mamiya NC1000S my first slr. With 16 a Nikon Fe2 followed. In the local youth center I learned darkroom work and startet to give courses for other youngsters. I the following years many cameras came and went:
Nikon F3
Zenza Bronica ETRS
Leica M4P
Pinholes in any size and from different Materials
Mamiya C220
Mamiya Universal Press
Polaroid SX70
Zenza Bronica SQ-A
Linhof Technika III (4x5")

Around the year 2k the digital world came into my life: some digitals came up to me:
Panasonic DMC somewhat
Ricoh GX100
Nikon P7000
Nikon D300
Fuji x -E1

The rest of my life is filled up with family, sailing and there was something else - working- as a resposible for the 55 schools of the town of Oldenburg in the north-west of germany. but this is not the topic here.
or what?
