I was taught the basics of photography as a child, and practiced on a 35mm Praktica film camera.
I continue to use 35mm film, and I experiment with expired films using a Nikon FM2 and a Canon AE-1 .
I also use a RolleiFlex 2.8 TRL (made in 1959) and a Hasselblad 500CM (made in 1986) medium format (120 film) vintage cameras.
In addition my collection includes a 1960’s Olympus Trip half-frame 35mm film camera as well as a 1970’s Olympus Trip and a Canon Demi half-frame 35mm film camera from the 1960’s.
