A Really Super Paxette

[brian_roberts3]

<p>Hi Rick,<br>

I bought a Braun Paxette with my first pay (well, actually several bits of my first pays). It was my first 'proper' camera after a group of plastic Kodaks. I love the camera -- the weight and the quality machining. It has had a good life and is now retired to my display cabinet, still in beautiful condition. It gave me a real appreciation of the quality workmanship that came out of Germany after the war -- I was in the graphic arts trade and you should have seen the quality in some of the little add-on bits the printing machine makers made for the trade. Little numbering machines made of stainless steel for example. Although I'm retired now, and the industry has changed beyond me, it still fascinates me today.<br>

Regards<br>
