Collecting
For many photography enthusiasts, camera collecting is as much a part of their hobby as the taking of photographs.
Sites in this category are less concerned with technical information about cameras, and more concerned with general information for and about camera collectors, including displays of private collections, collectors' organizations, and advice on building collections.
