When I was in Chapel Hill to help mom to pack for her move to Egypt, Mom gave me her Ricoh XR-2s 35mm film camera and its lens. The camera, which is compatible with the Pentax cameras and lenses I prefer, was a welcome addition to my system.
Farah, my daughter, recently started a photography class that requires an old school manual film camera and lens, so I gave her Mom's camera to use (and to keep, if she promises to take good care of it).
Farah is using her grandmother's camera. It is as if mom has the opportunity to participate in Farah's education and the development of her talent. I love the continuity.
