Since I work in a classic camera store in Delft NL I have seen and held many of these camera's. Nice to see someone focus on specia; / important models from technical perspective, and not just the most valuable or nicest looking ones... Very good!
Peaked at just a bit over 300 cameras at 23 years old! From 1800s box cameras to quirky spy cameras to Leicas, the art of cameras itself outside the practise of photography is enough for me to splurge money on!
Fantastic project Matthieu, thanks for sharing! I do believe Federico has done a beautiful thing in honoring his father's passion in this way. This is so wonderful, I hope to visit this museum one day. 🖤
I love this story. His father would be extremely proud. The analysis that these cameras "tell a story of engineers solving a problem" is exactly correct. I also liked the thought the "the cameras are happy in the hands of photographers rather than sitting on shelves" - I, too, like to anthropomorphize objects. As an engineer myself, I collect mechanical cameras, watches, calculators, firearms, and other mechanical objects as well. I wish I could've met his father. Such a great story and outcome.
What a beautiful idea. I love that he puts the cameras to good use and in that way they shine in a way that would never happen if they just sit there in the collection
Wow, wow and big wow! Brilliant! I think cameras, like other things, are fascinating from a technology POV because they're engineered precisely but they are then used to create beauty. The end product is a combination of left brain and right brain and when you put the two halves together you have a complete person. What a great way to honour your father. Well done
Bonjour, y a-t-il quelqu'un capable d'identifier l'appareil présenté à 2:43 ? Il ne figure malheureusement pas dans la collection actuelle présentée, ni dans ceux remplacés...
@@federicobenincasa Merci beaucoup pour cette réponse. C'est vraiment étrange, car c'est un appareil vraiment très sympathique et plutôt original. Il n'a manifestement pas eu le succès qu'il aurait mérité. La recherche reste ouverte, et c'est aussi ce qui est passionnant pour les collectionneurs.
Respected Mathieu! I really appreciate your channel and find it very original and entertaining. I have a question that has been on my mind for some time now. Would it be possible to make an anamorphic fisheye lens?
Hi congratulation for your camera collection and others. In Malta I know a person that he also collets cameras. He have a collection which is the largest in Europe. If you would like to make contact with him just let me know. He is a good friend of mine and he also makes restoration and makes them work again
Hmm, I have probably 500+ cameras of all types and styles in my basement. For 30 years now my hobby of choice has been repairing and restoring analog film gear. Maybe I could find someplace to give me space for a museum.. or I’ll stick with my original plan of getting them into the hands of other photographers. I’m 65, but I doubt that any of my children would want to deal with such a collection.
I would love to help you if you need to give some of your cameras a new life !! Would you be interested if we can discuss some ideas ? You can contact me : mathieustern@yahoo.fr
Interesting Video, I saw many German Cameras and some Cameras from Saxony too🤩. I am trying to stay @ 60 Cameras in my "Museum", but this is hard😅 Greetings from the ❤ of the German Camera Industry.
I am just about to sell my Leica M8 with 90mmF2 and Euro charger as used by Audrey Tautou in the Chanel Advert - she owned it for a long time after - given to her for the film by Jean Pierre Jeunet for their 3rd outing, the former being Amelie and A Very Long Engagement - if you search for the Ad you will see it in use - for the film they put a block of plastic over the M8 insignia - Jean chose this camera as it would not detract from the beauty of Audrey - the writing is on the top of the lens - had it a few years and it works like any Leica - ie flawlessly
Too much A-roll. Who cares about the guy who inherited all this stuff. Show us the collection. Talk about any one of these important cameras not how he found a place to store the collection.

I beleive he has honored his father well.
Thank you !
The flare on 2:15 is a chef's kiss🤌

It is an addiction :)
At 20 cameras now but I can't stop 😂
Wonderful gift to a Son from a father , and wonderful creative museum 99 Cameras . I like this .
Fantastic project Matthieu, thanks for sharing! I do believe Federico has done a beautiful thing in honoring his father's passion in this way. This is so wonderful, I hope to visit this museum one day. 🖤
anyone know what the folding camera is at 2:44?
my grandmother had a portrait made in Harcourt Studio in Paris
Beautiful story and amazing collection. What a nice interview!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you !
a beautiful piece!
what a wonderful project!
Thank you !
it looks like a well produced documentary
That’s why no one is watching it … :(
@@MathieuStern well shame, it was an interesting vid
If I visit Paris again I definitely need to go to this museum. Great profile!
Thank you !
This project is Amazing : 99 legendary cameras exposed in the incredible Harcourt Studio... It's crazy ❤❤❤

Anything with gears and chrome really :)
Beautiful cameras. Thank you for sharing.

i love it such a beautiful story.. i wish there were more videos about this story!!
Thank you, and Mathieu is an incredible story teller !

Thank you for your kind comment !
@@federicobenincasa You are most welcome.

Beautiful to watch👍
This was a terrific video.
Complimenti Federico !!! 👏👏👏

Bonjour, c'est également un mystere pour moi :) J'avais fait des recherches mais comme il n'a aucun marquage je n'avais rien trouvé.

This sounds like me, but I’m 22 and only have 100 cameras. I’m an engineer, and it’s the interesting engineering that inspires me to collect!
You have a long path of accumulating stuf ahead of you :)

film is back📸
A son should always be doing the best he can do to honor his father.
Agreed !
Amazing 😍
Thanks 🤗
Amazing
