Description Originally purchased on eBay with the intention of taking TTV shots, but it has since sparked in my a general interest of vintage cameras. I may start a collection. Is that geeky? More importantly, do I care?

(Side note: shot taken with the Lensbaby Composer.)

It looks tiny. Is it? I really love old cameras...but I love my dSLR too, and my camera budget is torn

You're right, it does look tiny. In reality, it's quite big, almost brick-like lol. I love old cameras too I was able to get the above Duaflex on eBay for about £25 (it was a while back so I *think* that's what I remember paying).

And yeah, photography is definitely not a wallet-friendly activity

My brother bought me a couple of old-style (but new) lomography film cameras for my birthday a while back, I have a triptych one and a fisheye one, they keep me entertained (and cost very little to run as they take normal film!). I found an old camera which my grandfater used to use, but the light sensor has expired so it's all hit and miss, and I should really try to get a film developed to see if it can still do anything
