Should there be a "Misc" catch-all category or perhaps an "Unknown" category?

For example, where would (or could) I place the Time-Life Magazine Toy Camera I own? I don't think Time-Life needs it's own manufacturer category because it was simply a re-branding but I'm still not sure who actually made this camera. --phule 15:13, 21 Jan 2005 (EST)

An "unknown" category makes sense to me. --Lbstone 04:11, 23 Jan 2005 (EST)

Film

Shouldn't there be a category for various film types? (i.e., B&W, C-41, infrared, silver types, etc.)

I say go for it. --Lbstone 19:30, 21 Jun 2005 (EDT)

Camera makers

Before people add each and every maker existing or having existed in the past so many years, and there is a bunch, maybe we should make subcategories:

• Digital only makers, ie all the brands that are mainly electronic brands and make digital cameras, (ex. Apple, Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba)
• Today's analogical makers (ex. Konica-Minolta, Nikon, Canon), or ex-analogical which went all-digital for their cameras (ex. Kodak)
• Analogical camera makers no longer in activity

My concern is that so many makers are both digital and analog, so it may be a little confusing. In any event, I don't believe the list is too overwhelming at this point. Maybe later on down the road we may have a greater need to group them, but right now I don't see it as a big deal. --Lbstone 13:35, 19 October 2005 (EDT)
