I'll try to add some exotics...
My first totally own camera was soviet Zenit-11 with Helios-44M lens at
1985. Much better (at least then I thought so) than fathers 1962.
Zorki-6. Soon I bought 135mm Jupiter-37M tele and 37mm Mir-1B lenses
and 2x teleconverter. Much fun and nice pictures.

I finally got around to replying to this. My first camera was a hand me
down Brownie made of Bakelite, it took 127 film and made surprisingly
good images for such a simple device, probably the biggish negatives.
The first camera I actually owned was an Instamatic 100, (126), next an

My first camera? Some sort of little 110 thing. Then a disc camera of some
type. My first 35mm camera was some sort of rangefinder, I swear it was a
Ricoh, but I might be making that up. It was a heavy, shiny affair. It
stopped working once, on a trip, and I took it apart. To this day, I

My very first camera was a secondhand box camera, but the first real one was
a Werra 1, when I was about 14. It didn't have a rangefinder or lightmeter,
so a lot of guesswork was needed. As I took mostly slides then, it was
amazing the number that turned out ok. I saw a couple of the more advanc

Mine was a Hanimex 110 of some sort, with built-in flash. I got it
for xmas when I was 9 or 10. Fixed lens,
My first camera was a Cinese (or Russian ?) cheap
clone of the Rollei twin-reflex, using 120 film,
a f/2.8 75mm lens and f/3.5 viewfinder lens :-)
Somewhere in the early 70's ...

My first was a Kodak Super 27 that featured two waterhouse stops and two
shutter speeds. A couple years later I got a Pentax H3; in-between had been
a King Regula 35 and a PetriFlex V. Not the one I had before, I do have an
H3 again with a couple Auto-Takumar lenses, fun to use.

I like this thread. :-D
The first camera I was able to call my own was a little purple and green
Vivitar "Point and Shoot" 110 camera. I can't find a more specific model
number or anything else on it. It's a cute little thing my mom gave me when
I was in fifth grade (1988-89, I think) and we

My first camera is sitting on my desk beside me. It is a Fujica ML35
rangefinde
Kodak Pocket Instamatic 130, sometime around 1984. Still have it, and
there's a roll of film in it right now.
My first Pentax camera was the *istD, bought in mid-september 2005,
although my first bit of Pentax kit was a SMC-M 50/2 that I bought with
a Ricoh KR-5sv in early August 2005.

Took it to school and, just as my mother warned, it was stolen.
Don't have a picture of it, but I have the first picture I ever took
and, maybe later, I'll see if I can find and post it. (Smithsonian may
want it someday anyway).

My first camera was a little 610 film box camera. I bought it from
Cash Erler's camera store in Chicago for $2 when I was 8 years old.
It took some reasonably good pictures. I've posted one or two here
before. My first good camera was an SP2 Nikon rangefinder with a
35/2.8 that I bought for
