Film camera no matter how old (Aberdeen) My disabled 19 year old son who is on the severe end of the Autism spectrum has been getting into photography lately and its been great to see him get so much into something that isn't sitting at a screen but is getting out and about. He has his phone and an old digital camera but would love to get a film camera to show him how to use.

DSLR/35mm Camera for Disabled Boy (Aberdeen) Expired I’m looking for a DSLR or 35mm camera to help support the burgeoning photographic passion of my disabled son. He is on the severe end of the Autism Spectrum and has discovered a genuine love for photography through his mobile phone. It has become his preferred way to express his creativity and observe the world around him. He did get a digital camera from a wonderful lady but is looking to hopefully step it up. We’ve explored every avenue to support this passion. I’ve reached out to over 100 organizations, from charities to universities and camera shops to newpapers and everywhere else in between hoping to find help with equipment, but unfortunately, we've been met with rejection after rejection due to limited resources and not meeting one criteria or another. It’s been disheartening, but I refuse to give up because I’ve seen how transformative this has been for my boys and we even started a go fund me for help and it hast really teken off yet. I’m keen to help him take his interest to the next level by introducing him to a proper camera, one that will allow him to learn about lenses, focus, and the finer technical aspects of photography. I understand that quality equipment can be costly, so don't expect to get any results but if you don't ask you will never know. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Camera/Photography items (Aberdeen) Expired I am looking for anything to do with photography for my son, he is 19 and on the severe end of the Autism Spectrum and really loves taking pictures on his phone. It is really hard to find hobbies and interests for him he gets passionately about but he has really taken to photography on his phone and I would love dearly to take it to next step for him. Ideally I would love to get him an SLR type to teach about the lenses and focus and stuff but would consider anything for him. I do realise they are expensive and don’t really think anyone can help but figured would ask anyways.
