I shoot with the cameras I collect. These are a mix of 35mm and medium format Soviet, German and Japanese cameras from the 1930s to the present day. I started buying Soviet cameras when I lived in Kyiv and I’ve been adding to my collection of film analogue cameras ever since. I wrote a bit about collecting Soviet cameras in this blog post.

Currently my collection comprises the following – click on an image to read about that camera and see sample images taken with it:
