Old camera appreciation!

Strange with all the more recent cameras lying around I find myself using the 5d more and more these days!
Feel free to add your own (perhaps CCD cameras?)

Barry,
I love your macro. I'll play. Here are my macros with everything "old". Taken with a Vivitar 90mm Macro, MD/MA adapter and old Minolta Flash HS132X on A100. All are straight from the camera with no PP involved.

Another one from the Dynax 5D, this time 30mm F2.8 SAM Macro
30mm and 100mm is a big difference in perspective due to distance, I think the two work quite well in their own way

The first two frames look great, the next three look a little blurry. May be it's my monitors, not sure...
Well, the idea with pictures from old ССD cameras was moved into several topics, I was a little confused where it is better to post pictures. :) I will continue the topic for now in the A300.

Finally, we are moving this section in the right direction! It doesn't matter what we use for the camera and lenses, the pictures are really good.

Dimage A1. One of the best P&S ever made, me thinks. Introduced in 2003(?), it had 18-200zoom, 5MP, macro, optical stabilization, tiltable EVF screen, live view, live histogram, separate dials for shutter and aperture, video, and audio clip to record with each image. Looking at the histogram, I would change shutter, exposure. Pricey too ($800).

These two are with Dimage A2. Same spec as above, except it had whopping 8MP.
