My first 35mm SLR was the Nikkormat EL over 30 years ago.

I bought one of those in 1975 on my way home from South Korea. I gave it to my Dad because his Leica was in the shop and never took a photo with it.

My parents bought me a 110 film camera (remember those horrible things?) when I was 8 years old...I took photos of my friends, my cat, and family vacations throughout my childhood years. That was 31 years ago...

I didn't get "serious" until much later, and when I decided to finally take a class in photography my dad gave me his ancient Argus Cosina camera & lenses (he bought the camera when he was in the Korean War). This was around 12 years ago, so I would say my "serious" shooting began then...with a darkroom in my apartment, etc.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

I've been making photographs since 1939. No I did not use a Tintype camera. An Argus C3 was the big step up from a Box Brownie.

I've shot all sized cameras up to and including 8" x 10" professionally through the years.

Poor George Eastman's family "Diggy" has lowered thier income big time!
