Film Cameras

Our latest featured member is our Vice President, Ian Creek. Ian has been a member of Corio Bay Camera club since April 2008.Although Ian owned a small Kodak 110 Instamatic film camera many years ago, he didn’t really “get into photography” until 1999 when his partner bought a Pentax MZ60 film camera to shoot aircraft at Avalon. Ian thought that was “pretty cool”, so he bought one for himself – and the rest is history. They also spent a lot of their spare time travelling to Tullamarine to capture various airliners and anything else that happened to fly in.While still a very accomplished photographer of aircraft, Ian’s subject matter has expanded greatly since that time and he now enjoys most aspects of photography including nature, wildlife, “still life” and “whatever catches my eye”. He is inspired by the natural world, sunset and sunrise, waterfalls, landscapes, the coastline and the animal kingdom.
