I think i got the spelling of this right...
Does anyone here know anything about Chinon cameras?....
Anyone who reads my post knows that this last fathers day i lost my dad...In the last two years both my parents have had serious medical issues....
My dad had a Chinon camera among others...I decided to keep the Chinon...Its older,a film camera...I am keeping it cause its one of the things that was his that i can hold on to...I dont know if anyone can understand what i am saying by that...It was dads..I have to keep it....I just feel like i have to....
I feel like i let him down....When i was about 15 he offered me an my sister a choice...A nice camera or $500. I took the five hundred not the camera...Had i taken the camera and not been selfish i might of discovered this talent i have with it much sooner and he might of been able to see my photography....His mental state the last few years he never saw it.....I feel incredably guilty for that.....My dad and i we fought a lot and about stupid little things...And here he offered me a chance to share in something that he himself loved and i had absolutely no appretiation for that....I keep thiniking to myself yeah he'd be proud if he could see what i can do with my camera but really i will never know....
So i have this Chinon that i might never use but i cant let go of it.....I dont even know if they made a quality camera....My Cameras that i have along with that are a Pentax ZX-7,Pentax *ist and Pentax K-20D.....
My dad had a number of cameras...Konica,Pentax,Nikon.....He usually bought good quality so i was thinking the Chinon was most likely a good camera.....Thoughts anyone?
