Intro: What can I say about me?

My name is Florian Darley, I normally live near Toulouse (South of France) where I work as a method engineer in an engineering company that works for an confidential customer which is Boeing's concurrent. At the moment, I live in Hamburg (Germany) for at least 6 months for work.

I really started photography when my Canon compact camera electronically died in 2001. Then I chose to switch to Minolta MD reflex so as the be able to use the lens my father used on his old SRT-101b. As far as single lens reflex are concerned, I keep on using Minolta MC/MD mount camera (XD-5) for SLR but since I discovered rangefinders, it do not get much use.

My four main cameras:
- SLR: Minolta XD-5
- Rangefinder : Leica III F
- TLR : Semflex Semi-Oto 3.5B (1965 or 1966)

Note: As all my posted pictures are scanned with my Epson multifunction printer, I apology for my bad quality scans.
