Classics

<p>The recent post by Michael Smith inspired me. Why not post photos of other classics taken with a classic camera (in this case a classic 1953 Raleigh bicycle taken with a 1959 Leica M3 and 1930 Leitz Elmar)? Anyone else have photos of "classics taken by a classic (camera)? Please post 'em.</p>

<p>Here's one I did nearly 3 years ago with a Minolta Autocord. You can see more of the same here:<br>

A Triumph TR4 done with a Yashica C TLR (a lens hood would've helped) and poor scan quality too!<div></div>

<p>A collection of 60's Sears Motorcycles taken with a 60's Sears Tower 41 camera:<br>

<p>Hi <strong>LM</strong>! They still make those Enfield Bikes 350cc and 550cc in Madras. They are also exported to the UK. Sturdy life-time investments! sp.</p>

<p>Forgive me for being</p>

<ul>

<li>so concentrated on cameras</li>

<li>for using my own definition of "classic"</li>

</ul>

<p>but here is a picture of one camera I consider to be classic - certainly in its influence on other, better known cameras, the Pentacon 6TL (including in the classic moniker its direct ancestors)<br>

taken with a modern film camera that I do consider a classic of its kind, the Canon EOS 630</p><div></div>

<p>JDM,<br /> No apologies needed, as far as I am concerned. Can you share any images from that magnificent beast (the Pentacon, that is)?</p>

<p>Actually, I am planning a new post (hence the picture above) but haven't got to it yet.<br>

Here is a post done earlier, however, on the camera and the Sonnar 180mm f/2.8 in front.<br>

The pictures used to display on line, but now do not because the site got retroactively "stricter" on the 700 pixel rule (used to be enforced only on horizontal dimension).</p>

<p>good concept, L Mar. here are my submissions...</p><div></div>

<p>The tractor above was shot with a T3. The car below was shot with a RE Super.</p><div></div>

<p>And this shot of vintage Soviet gear was shot using vintage Soviet gear... </p><div></div>

<p>Capital Q --- what Soviet camera did you use to shoot the Zenit & Zorki with?</p>

<p>(and here is another --- a 1920's Westfield/Columbia "ballooner" taken with a Voigtlander Vito II)</p>

<p>Praktica MTL3 : 135mm SMC Takumar f/3.5</p><div></div>

<p>Yet another TR4 shot with a Yashica TLR—what are the odds of that? The Triumph was my first car, and the Yashia Mat LM was my first decent camera.</p><div></div>

<p>L Mar - I shot the communist gear with a Zenit 3M. </p>

<p>One of the most "classic" cars in France, the Citroen CV2 pictured via a Pentax Spotmatic SPII with its 50mm f/1.4 lens:<br /> <img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6215/6307950298_9db8f62491_z.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="426" />"</p>
