- Computers, how to utilize them in science and in photography
Pentium 200MMX, Macintosh G3 / 450 Mhz, PowerPC 200Mhz, 19" and 17" display, scanner, CDRW-burner, modems etc. 40 Gb of total disk space. All computers networked (ethernet). Printer (DJ970) shared through HP Print Server.
My home office from 1983. My First Home Computer - Texas Instruments 99/4A. Also pictured My First Microscope, a Russian-made Biolam. And a real rarity, Apple III (1Mhz) with 5 Mb harddisk. It still works!
- Photography. Here are some examples of my camera collection:


Hasselblad EL with 80mm Planar Mamiya RZ67 with 90mm Sekor-C



Minolta SRT-101 50mm/1.7 Voigtländer Vito BL Voigtländer Vito II
