I can remember photographers using this camera at weddings when I was a kid.

Oh, yeah ... me too. In fact, if I recall correctly (and I'm old so no guarantee on that :) ) the kid in high school who did the photography for the school newspaper had one just like or very similar to this one. He's now a professional photographer and has been since we graduated in 1964.

I don't think those were the good old days, just the old days. however they were fun days and always interesting what you would end up with your photo's. trash can would fill up very fast in the good old days.

A photographer had to have true skill to end up with good photos in those "old days"
With today's automated photography even a monkey could get a good picture now and then.

That's a true statement, as todays cameras has made it so simple. Every one is a want to be a pro. photographer, as soon a they receive the camera in the mail. I have a relation that did, and still takes s@#t photos. I told him he needs to look at other peoples photos and at least try to learn something, he said NO I want to look at my photos. OH well that's the way it is.
