Historic.Camera

I’m starting this site to share my interest in art, photography, and technology.  I hope to include posts covering a broad range of things related to art and photography including:

  • Camera and Lens Reviews
  • Film types, processing, scanning, etc.
  • Sample images from different gear / film / digital
  • Art and Photographers I find interesting
  • Books that I found helpful or exciting
  • Other resources that might be helpful for photographers

My name is Eric Hiss, and for the last three years I’ve been the North American dealer distributor for Rolleiflex (DW-Foto GmbH) and also now Zenit Cameras and lenses from Krasnogorsky Zavod (Zenit KMZ) in Russia (Zenit Lenses US).   I have degrees in both Art and Physics from UC Berkeley and have worked in both disciplines.
