Martin Hill (camera collector)
Martin Hill is a former camera man who collects antique cameras, reels and other various filmmaking equipment. After making a few films, Hill decided to collect cameras instead. At one point he owned the Panavision PSR 35mm that George Lucas used to film the first "Star Wars" movie, which eventually sold for over $600,000. His collection included cameras that filmed blockbusters such as "Gone With the Wind," "The Grapes of Wrath," and "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." He also once owned the camera used for most of Charlie Chaplin's silent movies.〔〔News Channel 36 Staff ("Hollywood Comes to Midland" ) "Charlotte WCNC." February 10, 2012.

== Early life ==
Martin Hill started collecting over fifty years ago. After he got out of the army, he and his wife, Patsy, moved into her mother's house, which was 900 square feet. He began dealing in army surplus. One day, he used all of their savings and bought a literal ton of gun parts for $200. He cataloged and sorted all the pieces, over 36,000, and sold them to dealers. He turned a $200 investment in a $4000 one.〔
Hill and his childhood friend, Harry Joyner, a cinematographer in Charlotte, NC, made amateur 8mm films when they were young. In 1971, they shot a 35mm film called "Body Shop." Hill believes it was the first 35mm film shot and produced in Charlotte. The film may still be found in obscure video stores by the name of "Dr. Gore."〔〔("IMDB: Body Shop" ) "IMDB."
