I'm a fifites freak and bought an Kodak Instamatic at a thrift

I'm wondering what other people use old equipment. Any photos to look
at that you scanned?
I still think Kodachrome has the best colors ever.

I have used cameras that were build in the 50s, but then it was still
the 50s when I used them. Ok I used them somewhat into the 60s as
well.
My camera was a cheap TLR that was really only good for BW film, it had
one of those dark red windows on the back to show you what frame you
were on. If I remember right it was a 6x6 camera, I know it took 120
film in any event. about the only prints I got from it were contact
prints, very small.
At this point in time there is no way I would want to use and old
Instamatic, but I am glad you are having fun with it.
