WELCOME

Welcome at my blog called "Analog Camera For Dummies; How Does It Work?" This blog is part of a school assignment. The idea is that people who visit this blog (even if they have never heard of an analog camera) will eventually understand anything there is to know about an analog camera. This blog will mainly handle the body of the camera (of an analog SLR camera) and all it's mechanical parts, materials and other significant features.

I chose this subject because one of my personal hobby's is photography. I found this old analog camera, which belonged to my grandfather. It is this device that will inspire me troughout the course.
