Way back in about 1962, having only been in my first job for a few weeks. I passed a Chemist shop, stopped and looked in the window. A glass shelf with a few simple cameras caught my eye, I pondered a while.

Within a couple of weeks I was in there, buying my first camera a Kodak Brownie-44, 12 square pictures on 120 roll film, little did I know that, that format was the choice of many Pro photographers and camera makers, like Rollie, Mamyia and Hasselblad.

Digital photography was still some 40+ years away. So seeing my first image slowly appear in that developing dish was a bonus, and I was truly hooked! This made me a poor saver, always waiting to buy the next bit I needed.
