royall_berndt Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Jason always championed the M3 in his extensive writings on vintage cameras. He has a website now, and he's kept faith with the M3. And writes about many cameras as interestingly as he always did. Take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Thank you so much for reminding me of Jason Schneider. I have been a fan of Schneider for years. I mostly blame or thank him for initializing my love for old cameras, but I lost track of him. In the old days, when he wrote for Modern Photography his column was usually the second thing I would read, right after Keppler's SLR column. Modern had a "Too Hot to Handle" features which was interesting -- mostly Keppler telling complainers that they were idiots, although usually not exactly in that way. So Schneider, in May (not April) 1973 had this : 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royall_berndt Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 Jason also infected me with the collector bug. I read his review of the Voigtlander Prominent, and that was it. I liked Voigtlanders already, and to hear there was a really great one... I had a nice new Minolta, but then heard about the SRTs... ETC.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
