The time with my photographing work was unfortunately short and a long, long time ago. I only can remember some stuff I have had and also during my search on the net I saw that some manufactures failed during the digital revolution and were extinct like the dinossourus. Some of the equipment photos are only illustrative. The equipment below I remembered:
