Photo of me, young woman with straight shoulder-length brown hair, reflected in the mirrors of an elevator. I'm holding a dark blue camera in both hands and looking at the screen. I'm wearing a leather coat. I'm reflected three times.

My cameras over time

Here’s a little aside between my editing process on desktop and on mobile.

I have used and owned the following still cameras:

  • 1999-2001: Sony MAVICA (on loan from my Dad and whose model I don’t remember. It’s the kind that recorded low resolution photos on FLOPPY DISKS! 😱 and I had to carry a bag big enough for the camera and the 10 or so floppies I needed on a typical day.)
  • 2001-2003: Sony DSC-P1
  • 2003-2006: Sony DSC-P12
  • 2006-2007: Fujifilm FinePix S7000 (bought second hand from a colleague of mine.)
  • 2007-2009: Canon PowerShot S5 IS (I barely remember it!)
  • 2009-2012: Panasonic Lumix GH1
  • 2011: Polaroid 300! (Obviously not digital)
  • 2012-current: Panasonic Lumix GH3

I loved them all! Although I don’t remember the Canon, I took many pictures that I love with it. Here are pictures I could find of me and them over time:
