Day 86 of 365 - George Eastman was the inventor of roll film and founded the Eastman Kodak company. He brought photography to the masses with affordable, easy-to-use cameras including these classics Kodaks in my collection. From left to right - the Jiffy Six-16 Series 1 (1933-37), the Brownie Target Six-16, and the Brownie Target Six-20 (1946-1952). In addition to photography Eastman was a major philanthropist, establishing the Eastman School of Music, and schools of dentistry and medicine at the University of Rochester; contributing to the construction of MIT's second campus on the Charles River, and donating to Tuskegee and Hampton universities. For the last two years of his life, he was in intense pain, caused by a degenerative disorder affecting his spine. On March 14, 1932, Eastman died by suicide leaving a note which read, "To my friends: my work is done. Why wait?" #georgeeastman #kodak #cameracollection #cameracollector #photography #photooftheday #365photochallenge #monthofcameras #monochromemadness (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNHwnqEBUix/?igshid=zsktjy903y6s

Day 80 of 365 - Taz Cam - Inspired by the world’s Looney Tunes Tasmanian Devil, the Polaroid 600 Taz Edition is a weird and wonderful camera. Produced for a short period in 1999, it turns the Polaroid 600 into Taz’s head, complete with teeth and tongue on the inside. #tazcam #polaroid600 #instantfilm #cameracollection #monthofcameras #cameraoftheday #365project2021 (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM52T1Khhfa/?igshid=pohyc72f9jut

Day 78 of 365 - Meet my SLC (Sexy Little Camera) a late ‘90s vintage Olympus LT Zoom 105. The LT was for “Leather Tech” as the camera was covered in an very elegant dark brown faux leather that still looks and feels great 20+ years later. The pocketable film camera was jammed packed with features, a power 38-105mm zoom lens, auto focus, auto exposure, powered film advance and rewind, quartz date imprint, electronic flash with red-eye reduction mode, wireless remote shutter release, a panoramic mode, all packed into a weather resistant case. Olympus made over 2 million of these small travel cameras in different models during the 1990s. Still prized by film loving photographers, one of these cameras in good working condition can be had for about $140. #camera collection #cameracollector #filmisnotdead #cameraoftgeday #monthofcameras #365project2021 #olympusphotography (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM0pOuGBJ27/?igshid=7rnirpu5g6xo

Day 76 of 365 - Neon camera - not a real camera today but an icon of one in neon. I designed and bent the glass tubing for this project at the @chryslermuseum glass studio in a 2016 weekend course led by @kirkpatrickhannah and @jamesakers2 . It is bright red and has been displayed in my offices, first at @sloverlibrary and now at ERC. #neon #neonart #cameracollector #cameraoftheday #monthofcameras #leicaq2monochrom #blackandwhitephotography (at Midtown Tunnel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMr4b91hAqz/?igshid=1okduncaz7rek

Day 69 of 365 - This is my 1970's vintage Polaroid SX-70 camera, IMHO one of slickest cameras ever made. It's cool stainless steel folding case and leather accents are a work of art. One of my favorite photographers was Andrè Kertèsz. I first saw his work displayed at the @chryslermuseum in Norfolk Virginia during a 1982 show which featured his then latest project - images made with a Polaroid SX-70 instant camera. In the hands of a master, any camera can produce a masterpiece. #cameracollector #cameraoftheday #monthofcameras #polaroidsx70 #andrékertész #blackandwhitephotography #monochrome #monochromemarch #365project2021 (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMTREPjhY5j/?igshid=1k1ce7h22rraa

Day 68 of 365 - There's no shortage of cameras in the Sullivan house. This Canon SD870 IS was Cindy's camera from 2008 through 2013. It's a great little point & shoot camera. I used it on six different pictures for my photo of the day blog from 2009 through 2011. #cameraaday #monthofcameras #blackandwhitephotography #macrophotography #picturesofcameras #365photochallenge #monochrome #monochromemarch #canon #pointandshoot #canonsd870is (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMTPkIeh9G0/?igshid=pomna24wgi4m

Day 66 of 365 - “Always wear a camera.” Great advice from @thorstenovergaard and nothing can be more stylish than the matte black Leica Q2 Monochrom. #monthofcameras #leicaq2monochrom #monochromemarch #monochromemonday #blackandwhitephotography #leica #365photochallenge #365project2021 (at Virginia Beach, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMLgrIbhU72/?igshid=1vum3gz5lbmhj
