In 2003 I got my first digital camera and ever since I used it every day for picturing my daily life. One day this camera broke and I wanted a new one. I tried several digital cameras from small digital cameras to professional SLR-types.

But I didn’t get warm with these cams.
Accidentally I saw pictures taken with an LCA and I fell in love immediately. Thus, at first, I was a bit unsure. Is it rational to by a analogue camera using film in the new millennium?

the answer is: YES !

The feeling you get when you press the button to release the shutter and the sound it makes is priceless. It’s so much fun. The smell of 35mm film, rewinding the film, let it be developed and 3 days later to have your prints. That’s simply amazing. The thing about digital cameras, that’s really really really annoying me is, that you see the pictures you take immediately. The LCA is like a secret. It won’t show you the results at once.

Just look at my gallery and you will see why I love this camera.
