Junk Store Cameras!
      #604042 - 30/01/2008 19:27

For afficionados of "esoteric cameras" - Marcy Merrill's ultimate illustrated website for Junk Store Cameras! - Just see what you've been missing all these years. Includes a section on E-Bay excesses - and even a photo of her melons! .... *

Marcy has devoted far too much time to collecting junk, from plastic novelties to 'state-of-the-art' Holgas, and even more to using it and writing about it! One of my favourite "brightens my day" websites.

* See her "Special Moments" camera review

Some interesting content, but what a dreadful website layout.

Yup! She prob'ly picked it up in a thrift store for a few bucks. 'Orrible colour, etc, but her quirky commentary compensates.

Agree some good stuff on there but the site needs a revamp.

Growing up is hard to do and I've tried, but it's just no use.

The 'Gala Collection' is an eye-opener ... Would anyone dare to go out taking photographs with any of these I wonder?
