I've tried to capture something older and newer in the same shot, in this case a still life with camera and cameraphone.

The phone is my 2010-ish N900. The camera is a Kodak Autograph Junior dating about 100 years earlier.

Note that the camera, like the N900 has a kickstand for propping it up level without a tripod. In fact it has two: one for portrait and one for landscape. And it's bigger than it looks! My understanding is that photos in that day were contact-printed and not usually optically enlarged, so a negative the size of the desired print was necessary.

It's also got an interesting feature, sort of an early metadata recorder. There's a small door on the back that can be opened to allow the photographer to scribe some info on the back.of the negative with an included stylus (another feature in common with the N900). That's the 'autograph' in its name.

Wish I'd gotten a little better composition and a nicer backdrop than my lab/workshop/atelier/etc.

OnePlus X running SFOS, stock camera.
