I am thinking of starting a personal camera collection. I know that there is a 'rarity' range, or index, that is used to assess the rarity of various models, but, I cannot find it on the net. Does anyone here know if there is a common set that is used. Or does each manufacturer develop their own,

Most people into digital photography END UP with a "camera collection" due
to their belief that "ugrades" are always necessary. :)

You almost hit the nail on the head! I've just bought on ebay 3 cameras from
that I have lost from my youth. So now have to get models back.

Current film cams include Chinon CX, Pentax ME super, Pentax Super A,
Minolta d 5000, a couple of old box cams and somewhere, an old 110 instant.
This is Before I started to think of collecting!
Oh, and a Chinon super 8 sound movie cam.

Digitals are Canon G5 - super camera, and an Olympus E500.

awaiting arrived is a Lubitel 2, Werra 2 and a brownie 127.

Silly Eddie
