Photo Camaras made in Argentina
Interesting website from Jose Ramon Garcia Menendez about cameras made in Argentinia.
First Attempts ; So far no research has been carried out over the production of photographic cameras in Argentina.
Futhermore, documents about the history of this production are almost unavailable, even though we know that cameras were produced in Rosario by ALEJANDRO SAJAUSKAS.
There are no records or advertising documenting this early production that consisted in the "wood & brass" made cameras similar to the ones made worldwide, known as Reissekameras, Campagnolas or Chambres de Voyage as were called in Europe
This small, almost artesanal production, by local producers carried no brand names even in Europe but it is known that this type of cameras were made in Argentina at that time.
Also at that time there were made great format cameras for professional use in studios with its balanced bases that were artesanaly made in wood and brass.
Second instance Due to the Second World War, there were no imports of photographic iems and supplies in Argentina. There forth, in the late 40´s and early 50´s, some small industries began the production of simple bakelite or sheet metal cameras and even exceptionally on wood, that were well accepted by the deprived consumer market.

Charlie Kamerman's Kodak Collection.
I have been collecting items in original boxes since 1979. My collection contains a wonderful mix of photographic related items
representing the evolution of equipment and marketing of the Eastman Kodak Company over 120 years.
In the beginning I decided to buy items only if they were in their original boxes to limit the number of items I could acquire.
Eventually I decided to buy advertising items to complement the photographic equipment which helped me to create more visually pleasing exhibits.
To this day I only buy cameras and accessories in original boxes. Parts of my collection of thousands of items have been exhibited in the California Museum of Photography, the Museum of Science and Industry in Los Angeles, the Seattle Convention Center and the George Eastman House in Rochester.

The Brownie camera @ 100: Celebration
February 1900. The dawn of the 20th century is ushered in with a new arrival: the Kodak Brownie. It cost just one dollar and was so easy to use that even the youngest children could take perfect pictures.
This small, simple box launched a new industry, and forever changed the way we communicate.
Photojournalism. The motion picture industry.

The PHSC was formed in October 23, 1974 to advance the knowledge of and interest in the history of photography, particularly of photography in Canada.

Each member receives a copy by mail as part of the benefits of membership. The journal is a quality publication providing information and insights on all aspects of photographic history with a Canadian emphasis. Many of our writers have personal experience in the photographic industry. Articles have been published on cameras, photographers, manufacturers, old processes, stereo, images, restoration techniques and books. While most of the material is written specifically for Photographic Canadiana, we also reprint interesting articles from other sources, plus news of meetings, shows, and other events of interest to the collector. Members can place one free advertisement per issue (space permitting).

Collectors Weekly
CollectorsWeekly.com, a resource for collectors and people who love old (antique and vintage) stuff. a great place to explore and learn, and a showcase for the passion and knowledge of collectors everywhere.
Why weekly? When I first started collecting, it was on weekends – getting out to a show, an auction, chasing after some great item, reading up on it afterward. So Collectorsweekly.com was designed for weekend warriors, even though we update it by the hour.
What you’ll find: Useful information on over 800 antique and vintage categories,

Kodak Classics
Basis of the information contained on this site is Chris Eve's Kodak Collection, which was sold in 2005. When there weren't any cameras left, the website was taken offline but as I thought it very useful, here it is again.
The focus of the original website was on the technical properties of the cameras in the collection and the stories behind the cameras were few. I would like to add more stories and background information to place the cameras in a historical context and try to make them come alive. hope the information is as useful to you as it is to me. In case you find any mistakes or have additional information feel free to contact me.
Whereever any references to "my collection" are made, the former "Chris Eve collection" is meant. I'm not in possesion of this collection or a similar one for that matter. I merely own about 50 cameras, some Kodaks but the majority was bought just because they are so beautiful.

On this website you will find images of the Kodak collection i have amassed to date. Originally I collected cameras in general but that was getting out of hand and I was on a budget. Collecting Kodak was the obvious solution because they are abundant, varied and reasonably priced. Though of recent times the prices have increased substantially.
