Me too although sci-fi high tech sure is also interesting. But there's not much of that in the flea markets. :D

Two times I've now found a film inside a camera, both old. The second one actually really old. The first one had nothing in it and the second one is yet to be seen. Although I am really intrigued what has been exposed to the film, I also am wondering if I want to see anything that is someone's personal data/photos/life. Unless it's really, really old and that's not the case here.

Memory cards are usually emptied by the sellers so why not films, although a memory card does not have the double exposure option. But as that can be done with film, I'm double exposing the films that already are in the camera. I rewind it and start over. That way it could be a mixture of the past and present, not owned completely by me or the previous owner but a combination of both of our minds.

Let's just hope my plan works and the black and white film I have is still good. I've heard that color films, when stored in room temperature, are easily destroyed in couple of decades (I double exposed the one I had and it was all futile) but black and white may still be relatively okay after 50 or 70 years. And that's spooky.
