Great! i wanted to do something like this, but didn't have any old film camera. The background has a vintage feel as well. Nicely done.

The B/W help with the juxtaposition, I would prefer a more neutral back cloth as this is rather busy

Comment by Ivo:
This picture completely lacks creativity. It is simply a literal presentation needed to fulfil the challenge requirements and that is all. Both cameras are displayed equally whereas the older model is far more interesting and should have been more of a focal point. The damask background does not fit in at all and is very distracting and is not smoothed out. This creates wrinkles which I noticed right away. Both camera lenses have flash flares and the Minolta body moreso. When I do not see any creativity in an image I tend to focus on the technical and that is not the purpose of a photo competition. I would suggest that you sell the sizzle and not the steak. In this case, the shot has no sizzle whatsoever and the steak is tough to digest.

The flash is kind of unecesary and makes this shot seem dull, the background... well it does have an interesting tecture but I have to say it doesn't fit the subject very well, as for the B&W, I don't see why you used it here. But well it does meet the challenge.

This seems like a very dark photo to me, I know that is part of the idea but still is seems very dark and flat. It is also very small, this will hurt it in the scoring.
