Brass Lens: Vintage Cameras, Lenses And Photographica

The Joy of Collecting

Brass Lens was created through my love of photography and collecting. After spending over 20 years hunting down unique gear for my personal collection, I realized it was time to share my passion with other enthusiasts. I have been buying and selling for more than 10 years now. I specialize in vintage large format items, but you'll find vintage gear of all genres here, including 35mm, medium format and cinema as well as darkroom equipment. I have shot all formats and many different types of gear over the years, and still shoot ULF (11x14 and 12x20) as well as digital (Fuji FinePix S2 and Nikon D700). I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about gear or photography in general!
