how old are we?

[jvuokko]

I am 36. Used MF gears from the age of 18, then got first LF gears about one and half year ago.

God, every time this thread pops up I'm a year older than the last time.

Maybe these are the more important numbers...
-first learned to use an LF camera (sort of): 19 or 20
-did most of my LF work: 26 to 35
-puttering around with a borrowed hasselblad, editing and printing and trying to complete and show some projects: 36 to 41

19 and still in the "chasing silver bullet" phrase.
Its like a knee-jerk reaction to new "wts" posts.

I'll be 66 next month (Virgo). Started with an Agfa-Ansco Shur-Flash box camera about 1954. Went through a number of different cameras until my early twenties. I bought a Topcon RE-Super when overseas in 1968. I still have it, along with a Mamiya C330, Nikon N-80, pre-Anniversary Speed Graphic, Graflex RB Series D 3x4 and RB Series B 2x3 Graflex's, Toyo G View. And a lot of other stuff. Still managing to find time to use all this gear.

68 here and up to a 6.5x8.5 and hope some day to graduate to an 8x10. Been at it since Columbus landed at Plymouth Rock......hope to learn how to one of these days.

42 today. Started with a hand-me-down 126 camera from my mother, and not done yet. Most recent purchase: a Shen Hao 4x5.

Born in 1949, took up 4x5 in 1979, 8x10 in 2006 and 8x20 in 2008.

I wrote it this way so when someone looks at this thread in 2015 it will be easier for them to figure out my age at that time. :-)

Another year older and deeper in debt, as Tennessee Ernie Ford would say....

I will let you all know my age when I turn sixty, in a year or two.
