Search-string limit?

Win8.1 pro

I'm doing image searches with Windows Explorer.

How elaborate can these be, because I'm having trouble with....

cameramodel:SP590UZ OR
cameramodel2X OR
cameramodel:MAVICA OR
cameramodelHP Scanjet djf300) OR
cameramodel:FinePixS2Pro OR
cameramodel:EXFH20 OR
cameramodel:E4300 OR
cameramodel:E-3 OR
cameramodel:E-5 OR
cameramodel:K810i OR

cameramodel:A777 OR
cameramodel:5130c-2 OR
cameramodel2Xs OR
cameramodeliPhone 5c) OR

I don't have any materials here to test these compound terms, so
just try them out and see what happens. I removed a few words,
to try to make the search statement a bit shorter.

cameramodelSP590UZ OR D2X OR MAVICA OR djf300 OR FinePixS2Pro OR EXFH20 OR E4300 OR E-3 OR E-5 OR K810i OR S8100 OR A777 OR 5130c-2 OR D2Xs OR 5c OR E-P1 OR DC3320)

cameramodelSP590UZ, D2X, MAVICA, djf300, FinePixS2Pro, EXFH20, E4300, E-3, E-5, K810i, S8100, A777, 5130c-2, D2Xs, 5c, E-P1, DC3320)

Another possibility, is to generate a list of all cameras, and use a negated search.
In other words, if there are only two cameras not in your list, look from them
not to be present, to make your selection. This is not nearly as good
a way to search, as your suggestion above, and I'd be trying this only
if I was desperate. Because now I need to generate a list of all
cameras in the population.

AND NOT cameramodelLand or disposable)

Just a guess,
Paul

Thanks, I found that putting each in quotes seems to work. I
shortened the search, so.......

cameramodel"SP590UZ" OR "D2X" OR "MAVICA" OR "djf300" OR
"FinePixS2Pro" OR "EXFH20" OR "E4300" OR "E-3" OR "E-5)".

I got 800 hits from about 200000 images. (most people use Canon
cameras.)
