My post count is getting extreme!
I did say, almost 10,000 posts ago now, that I would no longer run competitions to win random stuff every 1000 post (it was getting too frequent!) but I would when I reached the 20,000 post mark...
Soooooooooooo - not all that many to go now!
The prize on offer this time is a set of my infamous leather pouches - the square bottomed ones (see my sales threads in Makers Market if you need reminding ) - and the questions you need to answer are

How many cameras do I own now?
and
What kind of camera did I use to take the first photo that I ever sold to a magazine?

To give you some sort of frame of reference I used to take my photography quite seriously (had my own Photo Library, illustrated my own walks and cycling guidebooks, wrote for lots of magazines and illustrated my work myself.

In the first question I am counting every device that will take moving or still images, digitally or on film.
In the second question I am not after brands but types/formats ie Medium Format, 35mm compact, 35mm SLR, digital camera, phone camera, Plate camera etc etc

Answers list (with example!)

0/Owl pellet ....6,000,000........pinhole - get the idea?

1/ name......number of cameras..........kind of camera

2/name......number of cameras..........kind of camera

3/name......number of cameras..........kind of camera

keep going in this style please

there you go cut and paste your answers into your reply ... try not to leave anyone out as you cut and paste the answer list.
Only one entry per person please - you have lots of time to think as I will be at the Moot and do not think I will get to 20,000 posts before then :)
The competition finishes and the winner worked out as soon as I realize that I have posted number 20,000...
If no one gets both questions right I will post a tie breaker for the folk who got one of them right...
Good luck!
