The Silver Halide Sessions - James Ollinger: The Genre Collector

The Ephemeral Machine: A Podcast About Collecting Cameras

Episode #13: The Silver Halide Sessions - James Ollinger: The Genre Collector

The Ephemeral Machine presents another in the series of The Silver Halide Sessions: Interviews with Collectors, Aficionados, Historians, and Archivists.

Occasionally, a member of our community focusses on a very specific area of Camera Collecting and in doing so, provides access to a veritable wealth of information that allows us to align with a different and fascination aspect of this hobby..

James Ollinger has endeavored to endow his already substantial collection of cameras and ephemera with a robust and carefully documented array of light meters that track historically and technologically. Through this comprehensive intersection of two invaluable tools of photography, the camera and the light meter, James has offered a unique perspective into the Camera Collection universe. One that needs to be explored at a deeper level and one that we will discuss in greater detail.
