that one was sent to me from the Ukraine
it's not the most beautiful specimen, but it was cheap.
as for who can upload photos, right now with the exception of recent cameras, the leicas and a couple zeiss ikon cameras, i've photographed and uploaded them.
but the code is all in place to allow anyone to upload and have it automatically credit the uploader with a name and link. (see the full size photos at
http://www.pbase.com/cameras/leitz for an example)
what's stopping me from opening it up to uploads from anyone is the work involved in monitoring what people upload. (non camera photos, incorrect cameras, copyright violations, etc)
i've added you to the list of people who can upload.
consider this beta testing, you're the only one in the list.
feel free to try it if you want.
if anybody else has photos of cameras they'd like displayed in the camera database pages, feel free to contact me at
cameras@pbase.com
