Old School Photography: A History Lesson

Posted on March 3, 2007 by Eric

Pixel peeping driving you nuts?  Wondering whether you should splurge for the latest and great uber-megapixel camera?  What about dust spots?  Aaaahhhhhh!!!  It’s enough to drive you mad.

Let me invite you to take a trip back to the roots of photography - I’m talking really old school here.  So head on over to Neatorama for a journey back in time and check some ancient cameras, literally.

. . . That 8 megapixel camera in my bag doesn’t look so old anymore.
