Dear Leica Forum members, I do not know if my post will go through moderation, but I will give it a try as I don't know any other place where somebody might know the answer. Jean Baudrillard was a prominent french sociologist, philosopher, postmodern thinker, photographer (on the basis of his works and ideas films such as Matrix and V for Vendetta were made) Maybe, anybody here met him or knew him as a photographer? Maybe somebody knows what were the camera models he used? Anything about JB photography one may share would be precious. I have looked into every single uncollected interview, every single possible source where he speaks about photography, spoke with people who personally knew him, but so far, nobody knows what was the camera. The only thing is known that he started his journey in photography with a small Japanese camera gifted to him I am attaching of the photos of JB from his album... There is something very special about it, it does seduce you as JB would have probably said , it looks "empy" but that's the whole idea, perhaps... Somebody like me , a total goofy in everything related to film camera world (and digital for that matter), was insanely drewn into photography thanks to Jean Baudrillard's work I really really hope there is somebody here who knows the camera model or at least give a hint where to search for Kanykei
