Camera museum in Melbourne

I must say, that while I have walked around Melbourne city for a week, the highlight for me has been a couple of return visits to Michaels camera shop in Elizabeth street.

Not only do they have absolutely anything you could possibly want as a photographer...(and in stock too), but they have the most magnificent camera museum upstairs that is free to view.

I even found my old Minolta SRT 303B SLR on display there. I didn't realise that my first SLR camera was so dated!

I remember pulling apart so many Box-Brownies as a kid for the lenses and mirrors, with no idea what I was destroying. Anyone remember 110 film? It was there too.

Here's a few sample pics of familiar, and not so familiar, rare and unique cameras.
