Shutter

Taken as part of the March challenge " Juxtaposition ".

I was given the camera on the left a few months ago after an elderly relative passed away. The Panny on the right is my holiday point and shoot. One is from around 1950 the other from 2007.

1/25s f/2.8 at 50.0mm iso400 full exif

Love these old cameras, Kev.

Well thought and well taken. The old one has much more character than the new one.

Thhe old one not so easy to carry in your pocket...stick to the Panny !!

Awesome shot Kevin...the new and the old!

Exciting juxtaposition here!
Cindi Smith01-Mar-2010 22:46
I like um both but the old one costs more to develop!
Phillip Normanton01-Mar-2010 22:31
Two apertures and two shutter-speeds plus bulb - modern cameras are far too complex :)

Fantastic details! V

It's a beautiful old camera and obviously compact for its age.
Colin Storey01-Mar-2010 20:58
Great shot of old and new cameras.
Doug Cruden01-Mar-2010 20:27
Perfect! Super shot Kevin, and a lovely B&W pic to kick off...
Johnny JAG01-Mar-2010 20:04
Well thought out.

Of course, that should have been "portray"!
malcolm haslam01-Mar-2010 18:48
Excellent way to potray the 'then and now' of photography...
Nicki Thurgar01-Mar-2010 18:06
I have the Panny too... great for snapping! have you put film in the old one yet?!
borisalex01-Mar-2010 16:35
This is really great, beautiful light in it and works perfect in B&W!
Frank Brault01-Mar-2010 16:21
Excellent. I was just thinking of doing a digital camera with a film camera, but I sure don't have one as old as yours!

Wonderful shot.. the detail is superb! V
Kerry Tingley01-Mar-2010 15:26
Wonderful!
J. Scott Coile01-Mar-2010 13:44
Plenty of time seperating them. Fitting in B&W. Would love to experiment with the old camera.
Stephanie01-Mar-2010 13:07
Marvelous!
Guest 01-Mar-2010 13:03
A great entry and idea Kevin, both beautiful cameras. Great in B$W!!
Marielou Dhumez01-Mar-2010 12:08
1950-2007, no one can say there is not a great difference between the two...! :-))))
This is a perfect image for this challenge, Kevin, with a great mood in B&W !
