3D TECHNOLOGY: 3D Trio camera  3D TECHNOLOGY: 3D Trio1998 200810.00This is an Image Tech Trio 3D camera; it’s a very simple “point and shoot” 35mm camera. It’s got a built-in flash and a semi-rugged olive green plastic body. Manufactured in 1998 by a company out of Norcross, Georgia, this was one of several cameras to try to create 3D images on 35mm film. You put a roll of 35mm film in the camera, and after shooting about a dozen and a half pictures, you mailed the roll to a special photo processing lab and they would send you back a set of pictures that were affixed to lenticular plastic.
Essentially, you received 3D pictures, albeit the same type of 3D that you could find in those old “magic motion” trading cards from the late 1800’s early 1900’s but these were in color. If you get a viewer you can see 3D images just like the old Civil War 3D pictures. The problem is that this camera pictured above does not work and listed in Poor condition. It was a victim of battery leakage and is worth 50 cents for parts in 2013.

3D TECHNOLOGY: ImageTech 3D FX camera  3D TECHNOLOGY: ImageTech 3D FX1996 201010.00This is a 35 mm viewfinder lenticular stereo camera manufactured by 3D Image Technology, Inc., P.O. Box 4300, Norcross, Georgia 30091-4300, USA. The camera was introduced in 1996 and used the 135 film cartridge. The separation between each lens is 18.5mm and the Plastic lenses are 1:9.5/27 mm with diaphragms Fixed at f/9.5. These are fixed focus from 1.2 m to infinity with a mechanical guillotine type shutter behind the lenses. The shutter is cocked with film transport and the one shutter speed is 1/100 of a second. The camera has a thumb wheel film advance and a Newton viewfinder. The film is loaded and rewound manually after pressing a release button located on the bottom of the camera. The camera also has a built in flash unit, frame counter S to 24, ¼ inch by 20 thread tripod socket, fold down rewind crank, double exposure prevention, "flash ready" LED, and has a handy built in carry strap. The camera on two AA batteries and the instructions recommend you use 400 ASA film for best results. The ImageTech 3Dfx is one of several lenticular 3D cameras sold under the ImageTech brand. The Kalimar 3D was a clone of this camera. Other, more well-known lenticular 3D cameras are the Nimslo and the Nishika. All lenticular 3D cameras incorporate multiple lenses to produce multiple images taken simultaneously from slightly different angles. Producing the final lenticular print requires special processing whereby the individual images are sliced up into very thin vertical strips which are then interlaced and covered with a sheet of plastic that has long vertical lenses in it. These lenses focus on different images depending on the viewing angle. When you tilt the lenticular picture back and forth, left and right, you see the original images one at a time which causes the illusion of 3D. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.

AGFA: Agfamatic 4000 Pocket camera  AGFA: Agfamatic 4000 Pocket1974 201216.00Introduced in 1974 the 4000 is the evolved version of the model 2000 with a more luminous objective with a 26mm lens and a variable exposition controlled by an electronic shutter. The camera also has variable shutter speeds of 1/250 of a second to 30 seconds and the focus selected with pictograms of a Mountain, a two person Group plus a person from the waste up. These pictograms are accompanied by a scale of distance (in blue characters), in feet or meters coupled to diagrams for the utilization of the Magi cube at distances of 4m, 2m, and 1 to 2m. An LED in the finder indicates the correct exposure and if you have to use the flash. When you insert a Magi cube this automatically fixes the shutter speed on 1/50 of a second. The identifiers on this camera are "AGFAMATIC 4000", "pocket", and the Agfa logo engraved in black. On the front panel, "AGFAMATIC 4000" and "sensor" in white print located on the top panel.
Also a bright red shutter button, hidden viewfinder until opened, and a ¼ 20 tripod socket with a handy carry strap screwed in it. The camera pictured is in Fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2014.

AGFA: Billy Record 7.7 camera  AGFA: Billy Record 7.71933-1949 201612.001933-1949 Poor condition worth $8.00 for repair or parts in 2016 (shutter lever sticks). Agfa Billy Record is a series of medium format film folding camera made by Agfa and produced from 1933 to 1949. Billy Record cameras were listed in catalogs by lens openings as models 8.8, 7.7, 6.3 and 4.5. The names are based on the maximum lens opening. The basic body is the same for 8.8, 7.7 and 6.3 models. The 4.5 model uses the body style of the Agfa Billy Compur. All models use 120 roll film for 6x9cm frames. The lens is Agfa Anastigmat Igestar in Automat shutter in 8.8, 7.7 and 6.3 models. There are some cosmetic variations, like chrome decors, during their production period. The camera was succeeded by the Agfa Billy Record II. The Billy Record 7.7 was produced from 1933 to 1942 but was also available in 1949 and sold in the USA and UK as Speedex Record. (Probably using pre-war inventory or parts). The lens is an Agfa Anastigmat Igestar 1:7.7/100mm (three optical elements) and the shutter an Agfa Automat with speeds of 1/25 of a second to 1/100 of a second. The aperture ranged from 1:7.7 to 1:32 and the camera weighed 560 g. The dimensions are 165×88×37mm (closed), 165×108×131mm (open). The 7.7 camera also has two tripod mounts for portrait plus landscape that are 3/8” with 16 threads per inch, different from the modern ¼” 20 thread of today.
AGFA: Iso Pak C (1969) camera  AGFA: Iso Pak C (1969)1969 20175.50The Iso-Pak C is an evolved version of the Iso-Pak. It uses the then popular flashcubes introduced in the early 1960’s. To activate the flashcubes the camera uses two CR2025 batteries. With the C model the thumb wheel film advance was replaced by a single action lever film advance, which has greater speed to the next frame. The German made camera also has a Parator shutter assembly with a fixed focus lens. The shutter speed of 1/100 of a second is regulated automatically down to 1/40 of a second with the installation of the flashcube. The flash range was 1.5 to 3 meters (5 to 10ft). The camera sold for about $100.00 and $117.00 for the kit. This 126 film pack camera was introduced in 1969 and manufacturing stopped the following year in late 1970. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.
AGFA: Iso Pak Ci camera  AGFA: Iso Pak Ci1969 201510.00Agfa ISO-PAK CI was introduced in 1969. The Iso Pak was introduced in 1970, and the Iso Pak C in 1969. They were all made in Munich, Germany by the Agfa Camera-Werk Company. The cameras were made for the drop in 126 film cartage and the rotating flash cube. This camera has a Prator shutter and two shutter speeds of 1/40 and 1/80 of a second. It also has two settings, one for sun and one for clouded weather or flash. The camera has a fixed focus f/11 lens and a single action lever film advance. This lever advances to the next frame and turns the flash cube for the next flash assisted picture. The flashcubes are powered by two large button cells at the bottom of the camera body. This battery (Varta 4825) is no longer available today but replacement batteries do exist. The camera pictured here is in good working condition but missing the escutcheon that surrounds the lens assembly. The camera is worth $10.00 in 2020.
AGFA: Isoly (I) camera  AGFA: Isoly (I)1960 200510.00Isoly is a series of medium format viewfinder film cameras made by Agfa and produced from 1960 to 1971. These cameras use 120 film for 16 frames of 4x4cm. Also, diapositive films can be used. The different models are distinguished by their lens and shutter specifications. They were offered with different lens options. Isoly, later renamed “Isoly I”, still retaining its character as the basic model. The Isoly name was used again in the 1980s for a 35mm camera named as the Agfa Isoly 100. The Isoly I has a single shutter speed of 1/30 of a second and a focus distance (in meters) of 5 to infinity in sunlight, or 2.5 to 5m in close up. The Aperture size is 11; 16, it has a self-timer, flash shoe, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod hard point. The Isoly instructions recommend B/W ASA/ISO 40 film for sunlight and ASA/ISO 100 film for dull days. Overall the camera is very forgiving of the available light given such few settings. This one pictured comes with the Agfa Isoly Blitz flash unit, is in fine condition, and is worth $25.00 in 2015.
AGFA: Karat 3.5 camera  AGFA: Karat 3.51938-1941 199822.00Agfa Karat 3.5 camera was produced in Germany from 1938 to 1941. Karat 36 designed for standard 35mm cassettes, this unit uses the unique "karat cassettes" which transport film from a loaded cassette to an empty take up one. The sprocket "teeth" aid in the transport system as do two unique folding flaps that hold the emulsion flat on the film tracks. The pressure plate also does its part to ensure flatness. The bellows are hidden behind the lens mount plate. A button on the top body plate unlocks them to a fully extended state, and a thumb lever at 3 o'clock enables the user to retract the bellows in a closed position. Also on the top plate, one will find the tunnel like viewfinder, the advance knob, film counter and the shutter release button. The lens is a Agfa Solinar 3.5 50mm, 2 elements cemented together form the rear group, and the front two elements also cemented together form the front lens group. The focusing is achieved by rotating the front group to the desired distance. The shutter and aperture blades reside between the front and rear lens groups. The shutter is a Compur Rapid rim-set type with speeds from 1 second to 1/500 of a second plus B. It requires manual cocking prior to release. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $35.00 in 2016.
AGFA: Optima camera  AGFA: Optima1959-1960 201710.00The original Optima was released in 1959 and was the first manufactured camera with programmed exposure, obtained by a selenium-meter driven mechanical system. Moving its exposure setting lever down triggers a mechanical system that obtains aperture value and speed from the electromechanical part of the meter. The system mirrors a green or a red signal into the viewfinder when the camera catches appropriate exposure settings from the meter or not. The camera does not require any batteries. Left hand "magic" exposure setting lever must be held down while pressing the top-mounted shutter release in the automatic setting mode. In the flash setting mode you need only press the shutter release. The lens Color-Apotar S 39mm f/3.9 and the shutter is special Compur-B with speeds 1/30-1/250. The camera also has a wheel on the top that could be set to the film value (ASA or DIN). It is claimed to be the world's first fully automatic 35mm camera. It also sold as Agfamatic in Canada. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $2.00 for parts in 2017.
AGFA: Optima IA camera  AGFA: Optima IA1962 200010.00The \"original\" Optima was the first fully automatic camera in the world. There were times when Agfa was no doubt one of the best known camera brands. Only second to Kodak. After manufacturing cameras over a half of the century, production ended in 1983. Today both companies, Kodak and Agfa, are continuing in photo-business, producing film, photo papers etc. aiming more for the professional usage. The Optima Ia takes 24x36 negatives on 135mm film. It has f2.8 45mm Agfa Color-Agnar lens. The shutter, 1/30-1/250, operates automatically when you press the shutter release. When you press the shutter lever halfway down a mechanical system sets the correct aperture value and speed from the electromechanical part of the meter. A red signal dot in a viewfinder turns green when the right aperture/shutter speed combination is achieved. The camera weighs 400g and measures 121x82x68 mm. This system has no battery. Required energy is produced by a selenium cell and focusing is manual. This model was produced from 1962 up till the end in 1983. The camera pictured above is in Fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2013.
A selenium meter is a light-measuring instrument based on the photoelectric properties of selenium. The most common use of such light meters is measuring the exposure value for photography. The electric part of such a meter is an electromagnetic measuring instrument which is connected to the anode and cathode of a selenium photo cell that produces more or less electric power when exposed to more or less light. The optical part of such a meter is a window in front of the photo cell\'s light-sensitive side. The window\'s surface is usually structured like a honeycomb as seen in the camera above to the left of the view finder made of convex lenses. This type of window helps to bundle the light coming from the direction in which the photo cell is pointed. The mechanical part of a selenium meter is an analog calculator which accepts exposure value and film speed as input parameters for showing the possible aperture and shutter-speed combinations for correct exposure.
AGFA: Optima II S camera  AGFA: Optima II S1961-1966 199012.00AGFA LAUNCHED the Optima IIs in 1961 and discontinued the camera in 1966. There’s an f/2.8 Color Apotar lens with front cell focusing by three click-stop symbols indicating scenic, groups and a double-head portrait setting. The front turns further to just a blank part of the symbol ring, but if you look underneath you find it’s stopped at a close-up setting of 1m or 3 ¼ ft. Some makers use a single head symbol for this, but Agfa didn\'t on the Optima. The bright line viewfinder has a couple of small lines just inside the top to indicate the parallax error on close-upshots. The lens is set in a Prontormator shutter with only three settings, B, a lightning flash symbol and a red A. On A the exposure is entirely automatic. The Prontormator shutter is coupled a selenium cell found next to the viewfinder, and if you point the camera at the sky you get a small aperture on the five-bladed iris. Take it into a fairly dim light and you get a large aperture. There’s a dial on the top plate for film speed setting up to 200 ASA. Other features of the camera are a flash contact socket, accessory shoe, cable shutter release socket, rewind knob, and a frame counter. Agfa also sold various filters, lens hoods, and close-up kits for this camera.1961-1966 Fine condition worth $60.00 in 2014
AGFA: Optima II S camera  AGFA: Optima II S1961-1966 199125.00AGFA LAUNCHED the Optima IIs in 1961 and discontinued the camera in 1966. There’s an f/2.8 Color Apotar lens with front cell focusing by three click-stop symbols indicating scenic, groups and a double-head portrait setting. The front turns further to just a blank part of the symbol ring, but if you look underneath you find it’s stopped at a close-up setting of 1m or 3 ¼ ft.

Agfa also sold various filters, lens hoods, and close-up kits for this camera. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $55.00 in 2017.
AGFA: Optima Rapid 250 camera  AGFA: Optima Rapid 2501965 201810.00Optima Rapid 250 is a 35mm rapid film viewfinder camera made by Agfa was introduced in 1965. It belongs to the Agfa Optima Rapid series of automatic cameras with 24x24mm exposures on Rapid cassettes that appeared in 1964. The body of this first Optima Rapid model is different from later Optima Rapid 1966 series. The Optima Rapid 250 has programmed automatic exposure by a Selenium cell exposure meter, ordering the shutter speed and the aperture. Manual mode is possible for flash and B. Focusing is manual front focusing type with a symbols scale depicting portrait, group, and landscape. The camera also has a hot-shoe, Agfa Color-Agnar 45mm f/2.8 lens, ¼ inch 20 thread tripod mount, and an Automatic shutter with 1/30 to 1/250 of a second. The shutter release lever is on the lens/shutter barrel. It also has a Bright-frame viewfinder that shows green and red signals for correct exposure.
The Rapid cassette was Agfa’s reply to Kodak’s instantly popular Instamatic cassette but the film rolls have become rare and precious. Other manufacturers made cameras that used the Agfa Rapid film system like Fujica and Minolta but like the 126 film cassette, it is no longer available. Methods to reload the Rapid cartridge can be achieved provided you have two Rapid cartridge cases. One to hold the film and the other to be the take-up.
The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and is worth $5.00 for parts in 2018.
AGFA: Silette (Type 3) camera  AGFA: Silette (Type 3)1958 201615.00Silette type 3 was introduced in 1958. The Agfa Silette Type 3 Camera has an Color-Agnar 45mm f/2.8 Lens, 1/25 to 1/200 of a second Prontor Shutter, single action right thumb film advance lever, shutter release plunger socket in the center of the shutter release button, PC flash socket on the bottom of the lens escutcheon, accessory cold shoe, large viewfinder, ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket on the bottom of the camera, a 7 second delayed shutter timer lever, frame counter at the bottom back of the camera, and a ASA plus film rewind selector knob (wheel with window). You could purchase the Agfa Synchro Flashgun KM that mounted on the cold shoe and plugged into the PC socket.
In an effort to sell Agfa film only to the Silette owners Agfa coded the film selector knob with a combination of letters and numbers to indicate exposure speeds (ASA). CN = Color negative film, daylight type. CN 17 = Color negative film, daylight type and artificial light. CK over A = Color reversal film, artificial light type (Incandescent lamps with 3400 degrees Kelvin). CF over F = Color reversal film artificial flash type (3800 degrees Kelvin). CT over Day = Color reversal film daylight type. When buying Agfa film for the Silette you had to look for the letters and numbers corresponding with your selector knob (wheel) that fit your needs. CN-17 was the more commonly used film for obvious reasons and was approximately 40 ASA (ISO).

The camera pictured at the top is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2016.
AGFA: Solinette II camera  AGFA: Solinette II1952-1955  201717.00Agfa made this folding 35mm viewfinder camera between 1952 and 1955. The styling echos the medium-format Agfa Isolette cameras. The Solinette is a horizontal folder, i.e. the bed drops downwards on struts with the camera held horizontally, distinguishing it from the otherwise somewhat similar Kodak Retina. The top plate is almost symmetrical, with matching advance and rewind knobs, and the shutter release button on the right matching the bed release on the left. The shutter is cocked manually. The release button is threaded for a cable release. There is a double-exposure prevention interlock that releases the shutter when the film pin wheel turn during frame advance and it has no override control. The shutter is synchronized for flash, with a PC socket on top of the shutter unit, and a cold shoe on the top plate. The lens focuses to 3½ feet; focusing is by movement of the whole lens and shutter, with a focus ring behind the lens. There is a mechanical frame counter in a window in the middle of the top plate, in front of the accessory shoe. This must be set manually when a new role of film is loaded; the counter is advanced to 'A' by pressing the button on the back of the top housing (the button itself is released by a sliding control on the other side). The camera back is then closed and you advanced the counter to frame 1 after winding the film normally till it stops. The same frame counter button serves as the rewind release. On some examples, there is a film-type reminder dial in the rewind knob. There were two versions of this camera: the Solinette and Solinette II, and the latter is far more common. There were also several lens and shutter variations, as shown in the table below. The camera pictured above is in Poor condition and is worth $5.00 for parts in 2017.
AGFA: Super Silette (1955) camera  AGFA: Super Silette (1955)1955 202015.00The Super Silette is a 35mm film rangefinder camera made by Agfa and introduced in 1955. It belongs to the long lasting Silette series. It is similar to original Silette with coupled rangefinder. Early ones have flash PC socket on left-hand side of front plate, later moved to right-hand side. It also sold as Ansco Super-Memar in USA. The lenses was Agfa Apotar f3.5 40mm or Color-Apotar f2.8 45mm or Color Solinar f2.8 50mm in Prontor-SVS or Solinar f3.5 45mm in Synchro-Compur shutter; from 1956 with high quality six element Solagon 50mm f/2 six-element lens in Synchro-Compur shutter and is considered the most desirable model of the Silette fixed-lens family. The Super Silette's second model (1960) was completely flat top-plate, recessed re-wind knob flush with top. Other features are coupled rangefinder, Agfa Color-Apotar 45mm f/2.8 lens in Prontor-SVS shutter. It also sold as Super Solina. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $5.00 for parts or disply in 2020.
AGFA ANSCO: Cadet A-8 Flash camera  AGFA ANSCO: Cadet A-8 Flash1940 201910.00The Agfa Cadet Flash box camera was manufactured jointly by the Agfa Company in Munich German and the Ansco Company in Binghamton, New York, in the USA circa 1940. This specially made camera was designed to accommodate a detachable synchronized flash unit mounted on the top with two contact sockets. The A-8 Cadet Flash snapshot box camera was made only in the No. A-8 size, and therefore capable of capturing eight 1 5/8 x 2 1/2 inch exposures on No. A-8 Agfa roll film (127 roll film). It has a fixed focus high-grade lens, a one-way shutter release providing instantaneous exposures only at about 1/50 of a second, an easy loading metal cone, a hinged back with spring chip holder, and a pop-up direct frame viewfinder (this was mounted on the film advance winder side of the camera). The frame viewfinder was the only one on the camera. The two brilliant waist high finders found on the other cadet cameras were removed to accommodate the large flash unit. The camera body was cardboard covered in leatherette plus wood support for the glass lens plus leaf shutter mounting inside the camera. The back and face of the camera are metal with leatherette inserts and the Leatherette face plated has “Agfa” in a raised relief logo. The camera also has a one direction film advance winder that needs to be pulled out to retrieve and replace film, a red view window for frame counting using the film backing, metal escutcheons (on the lens opening, Shutter release lever, plus film advance winder), and a leather handle mounted to the left side of the camera. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.

The view finders use chromed polished steal not mirrors and they have held-up well over the years. Much of this information was obtained from mattsclassiccameras.com or Matt Denton’s site. The camera pictured above is in Good condition and worth $8.00 in 2019.
AGFA ANSCO: Cadet D-6 camera  AGFA ANSCO: Cadet D-61935-1941 19997.50Manufactured from 1935 to 1941 by Agfa Ansco (which later became part of GAF Corporation) in Binghamton, New York. A common box camera of the day with uncommon features. Agfa Ansco made several versions of this camera. They used either “B2” film (a.k.a. 120 film) or “D6” film (a.k.a. 116 film) and earlier cameras had art deco face plates. This one uses D6 film. The lens opening has a clear filter fitted in place to protect the shutter behind. The actual taking lens is really attached to the film transport box (which is removable for film loading) on the inside of the camera. More than just point and click, this camera has to additional levers just above the shutter release. The top one, labeled “Diaphragm” is fully “open” when all the way in, brings in a yellow filter at the next indent and pull all the way up slips in a smaller aperture hole. The lever in the middle, labeled “Time” give a normal shutter when down or you could pull it up and get the equivalent of “Bulb” on other cameras and hold the shutter open. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $10 to $20 in 2013.
AGFA ANSCO: Chief camera  AGFA ANSCO: Chiefc1935-1941 199410.00The Agfa Ansco Chief camera was manufactured by the Agfa company in Munich German from 1935 to 1941. This simple box camera was created through a collaboration with the fa-mous American Industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss. Described in advertising as the camera of tomorrow today. It was made of durable steel metal. It featured a built-in shutter release, optical direct view finder, water proof, pebble grain covering, synchronized flash, rotary shutter providing bulb and instantaneous exposures, and a fixed focus meniscus lens mounted in a turret lens mount. The camera was made in two sizes, model JN152 was ca-pable of capturing eight 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch exposures on Agfa PB20 or standard 620 roll film and model JN153 was capable of capturing eight 2 1/4 x 4 1/4 inch exposures on Agfa PD16 or standard 616 roll film. 1940 Fine condition worth $15.00 in 2020
AGFA ANSCO: Clipper PD-16 camera  AGFA ANSCO: Clipper PD-161936-1939 20185.00The Agfa PD16 Clipper is one of the very first cameras produced by German company Agfa after its acquisition of the American company Ansco, thus forming Agfa-Ansco. Like the early offerings of many photographic company mergers, this camera was sold under both brands as the Agfa PD16 Clipper and the Ansco Clipper although it appears that they were all made in the very same American factory in Binghamton, NY. The Clipper uses 616 film, a now discontinued medium format film. Although it is not a conventional folding camera, the Clipper employs a lens that must first be expanded before use. To do so, simply grab the two extended posts on either side of the lens plate and pull outward until two metal tabs click into place and lock the lens into shooting position. The lens itself is very simple and is pre-focused to cover everything from six feet to infinity. The self-cocking shutter is triggered by the small silver-colored lever with a red plastic end attached next to the lens. The shutter has two speeds: 1/60 of a second and, if you pull out the small metal tab above the lens, bulb (shutter stays open as long as the shutter button is depressed). The camera was produced from 1936 to 1939 in Binghamton New York, USA. In the early versions there is no optical viewfinder but a flip-up viewfinder frame and they also had a film rewind knob in addition to the film advance knob on the opposite side. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2018.

AGFA ANSCO: Clipper Special camera  AGFA ANSCO: Clipper Specialc1938-1940 201812.00The Agfa Clipper Special camera was manufactured by the Agfa- Ansco Company from 1938 to 1940. This Clipper Special camera was similar to the PD16 Clipper and the Ansco Clipper, except that it was slightly restyled and had an upgraded lens. The Agfa PD16 Clipper is one of the very first cameras produced by German company Agfa after its acquisition of the American company Ansco, thus forming Agfa-Ansco. All three of these cameras maintained a simplicity of operation and durable in an inexpensive camera. It featured a telescoping front that the user pulls out to an inch and a quarter and when closed the shutter release was locked. It was capable of capturing fifteen 2 1/16 x 2 1/2 inch sized exposures on Agfa PD16 film or standard number 616 roll film. It was fitted with an Anastigmat f6.3 lens and an adjustable shutter with speed ranges from 1/25 to 1/100 of a second plus B and timed. The focus range was 4 feet to infinity and is marked on the lens ring as 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 20, and INF. The back of the camera has two red windows labeled A and B. They are for lining up the exposure by getting the same number on the back of the film in each window. Also on the back is a Depth of Field Table particular to the cameras markings. Other markings on the camera are “Made by Agfa Ansco Corporation in Binghamton, N.Y.” and on the film advance knob is, “USE PD-16 AGFA FILM”. The camera is well-constructed with a steel body plus parts and has some reshoring heft to it. One of the detractors is that it has no double exposure protection so the user need be mindful. The film loading knob and film advance knob pull up to accommodate the film roll and take-up spool. Both can be difficult to center and get into position. Hundreds of thousands of these were sold by Agfa Ansco and they are not rare. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.
AGFA ANSCO: PD-16 Readyset camera  AGFA ANSCO: PD-16 Readyset1935  201915.00The Agfa PD 16 Readyset, a 6x9 folder re-badged as "Agfa" by the camera maker Ansco, after Ansco merged with Agfa in 1928. Took 616 film, and was introduced sometime around 1935. The camera sold for $9.50 ($175 today) and was listed as item JN111. It produced pictures of 2 ½ by 4 ¼ inches on 616 roll films or PD 16 Agfa film. The Readyset has a fixed focus lens that is in focus from 10 feet to infinity. It also has a 1/50 of a second shutter with two setting of timed and instantaneous. In the timed setting the aperture is f8 and f5.6 in the instant position. The shutter release has no double exposure protection but does have a plunger socket that is protected by a plug when not in use. The camera comes with a brilliant finder mounted to the lens assembly frame that can be used in the landscape or portrait position. A foot rest is provided for portrait frames along with a tripod socket in the front face plate. A red window with a cover in the back of the camera provided a way to count the frames using the numbers on the paper backing of the roll films. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.
AGFA ANSCO: Pioneer PD-16 camera  AGFA ANSCO: Pioneer PD-16c1940 20165.00The Pioneer camera was manufactured by the Agfa Company from 1940 to 1952. Designed as a simple snap-shot camera made of a durable plastic body with metal covers. The camera featured a built-in direct view finder, synchronized flash sockets, and turret lens mounting of a high-quality lens plus a bulb and instantaneous rotary shutter. It was made in two sizes, a PB20 for capturing eight exposures 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch on no. 620 or PB20 roll film or a PD16 for capturing eight exposures 2 1/4 x 4 1/4 inch on no. 616 or PD16 roll film. This camera was priced at $2.95 for the PB20 and $3.45 for the PD16. The camera has no double exposure protection and would be a box camera if not for the flash sockets. Most of the information was obtained from the HistoricCamera.com site. The camera pictured here takes the 616 or PD16 film, is in Good condition, and worth $10.00 in 2016..
AGFA ANSCO: Plenax PD-16 camera  AGFA ANSCO: Plenax PD-161935 200010.00The Agfa PD 16 or Agfa Ansco PD 16 were a series of folding cameras for type PD16 roll film (equivalent to Kodak\'s designation 616). The Plenax camera was manufactured by the Agfa Company from 1935 to approximately 1941. Designed as a low cost folding bed roll film camera. Many models are distinguished only by the lens designations Antar (f/14), Hypar (f6.3), or Tripar (f/11). Others are designated \"Plenax\" (regardless of lens type), and these include a few higher-specification models with Hypar f/6.3 Anastigmat lenses, and shutters offering T, B, 100, 50, and 25 settings. The approximate max width is 7 1/2 inches, depth of 6 inches, and a height of 3 1/2 inches. If a mask is used for ½ prints you can get 16 prints to a roll and without the mask it takes 2 ½ x 4 ¼ prints of 8 to the roll (616 film-120 film can be substituted with some work). Other features are a reversible brilliant finder, tripod sockets for landscape plus portrait, and red frame use viewing windows in the back film compartment cover. All of the punctuation variations PD 16, PD-16, and PD16 may be encountered, as the company itself was not consistent. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2013.
AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shot camera  AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shotc1932-1940 20049.001935-1941 good condition worth $15.00 in 2014
AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shot camera  AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shotc1932-1940 20190.00The Shur Shot cameras are basic box cameras manufactured in Binghamton, New York by Ansco, which went through several minor variations and were made in the hundreds of thousands.
The Agfa Ansco Shur Shot series began in 1932 and ended in 1940. Shur Shot cameras originally carried the name Agfa-Ansco in use at that time. Post-1941 models were branded as Ansco alone. The cameras were made in sizes for 120 and 116 films; but because of the German Agfa company connection, these were specified using the German designations B2 (120 films) and D6 (116 films) respectively.
The Shur Shot camera is a simple cardboard box covered with leatherette. A structural panel of wood behind the faceplate holds the shutter mechanism (approximately 1/30 of a second), and a fixed aperture of approximately f/13. The image is formed by a single backward-facing meniscus lens behind this.
Two brilliant viewfinders were provided to allow framing photos in either horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) orientations. Most models permitted long (bulb) exposures by pulling a small tab outwards. The more advanced models also included a slider which positioned either a smaller aperture (approximately f/22) or a yellow filter in front of the main lens. (The filter was intended for black & white photography, e.g. to deepen the tone of blue skies.)
To load film it is necessary to pull out the wind knob and open the back cover, which then permits the entire metal film carriage (and lens) to slide out of the body. The metal faceplate of the camera can also be taken off by lifting tabs off of small pegs both sides, giving access to the shutter and viewfinder (e.g. if cleaning or lubrication is required).
The Shur Shot simple, reliable, and maintainable design has preserved large numbers of them in perfectly usable condition right up to the present day.
The camera pictured here is a D6 with the yellow filter option and the bulb tab. It is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.
AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shot Special camera  AGFA ANSCO: Shur-Shot Specialc1932-1941 20194.00The Shur Shot Special was sold from 1932 to 1941 and is a basic box camera with extras. Manufactured in Binghamton, New York by Ansco it went through two minor variations with the face plate. The Early type had a black art-deco faceplate that has 30 vertical bands of narrow stripes and the post c1939 model has a light face with U-shaped band of 6 then black stripes. The Shur Shot series were made in sizes for 120 and 116 film; but because of the Agfa connection these were specified using the German designations B2 and D6 like the special. The Special had two brilliant viewfinders, which allowed either horizontal or vertical composition. The shutter is about 1/50 of a second plus Bulb/Timed exposures by pulling a small tab outwards above the shutter release and filter/aperture pull-out slide. The Special included a slider which positioned either a smaller aperture (approximately f/22), a yellow filter in front of the main lens, or all the way in for about an f13 aperture. The yellow filter was intended for black & white photography to deepen the tone of blue skies. The camera also has two metal cropping flaps or wings for ½ frame film use. These are attached to the film/lens cage and can be deployed or packed away only before loading film. Another feature was the capability of a close-up portrait by sliding the front lens out of the way with the use of the slide button on the front face plate under the lens. Pictures from 5 to 10 feet were taken without the lens and 10 feet to infinity with the lens. To load film it is necessary to pull out the wind knob and open the back door, which then permits the entire film carriage (and lens) to slide out of the body. A film Agfa Film sticker is affixed to the side of the film carriage with instructions on film type (D-6) and full plus half frame load procedures. Above that is the word “SPECIAL” probably for the workers to add the correct sticker and join the carriage with the correct body. The metal faceplate of the camera can be taken off by lifting tabs away from three small pegs on either side, giving access to the shutter and viewfinders if cleaning or repairs are required. The camera used highly polished steel plates for the interior reflective surfaces of the viewfinders. The camera pictured here is in poor condition and worth $2.00 in 2019.

Aires Cameras: Aires 35 II camera  Aires Cameras: Aires 35 II1954 201715.00The Aires 35-II camera was manufactured by the Aires Camera Industries Company of Tokyo, Japan in circa 1954. It is a well-made 35mm camera featuring a coupled rangefinder. It is constructed of metal with leather covering. It is fitted with an Aires Coral f3.2 lens mounted in a Seikosha-Rapid shutter capable of providing speeds from 1 second to 1/500 of a second. This camera is the telemetric version of the Aires 35. The 35-II is the first Japanese camera to propose a collimated frame in the viewfinder. Its shutter release is in fact the big lever located in fronting. Its general appearance precedes all the range of the telemetric Aires and in particular the 35-III and all its alternatives. Close to 40,000 Aires 35 II were sold and manufactured during its run. The camera pictured here is fine condition and worth $100.00 in 2017.
Aires Cameras: Aires 35 V camera  Aires Cameras: Aires 35 V1958-1962 201962.00The Aires 35-V was manufactured in Japan from 1958 until 1962. With Aries vast experience producing rangefinders, they strived to compete at a higher level. Aires engineers, therefore, started working on a “Supermodel”: a 35mm rangefinder, with high quality, interchangeable lenses, a leaf shutter, and a coupled selenium meter. The 35-V is the result of these specification requirements. It was sold either with a 1:1.9 45mm H-Coral lens or (optional) 1:1.5 45mm S-Coral. The camera was also sold in a kit complete with hoods, filters, and three lenses in a leather case, bearing the Aires label. The lenses in the kit were the 1:1.5 45mm S-Coral, 1:3.2 35mm W-Coral, plus the 1:3.5 100mm T-Coral and they work with the rangefinder. The 35-V is the last of the Aires rangefinders. It sports a Seiko leaf shutter with speeds from 1 second to 1/400 of a second plus B. the camera also has a rapid film advance lever, cable release socket on the shutter release button, exposure counter, one hand focus knob, accessory shoe, synchro socket, fold down rewind crank, M-X synchro switch, and a double exposure setting on the front of the camera (has three settings of double D, Advance A, and Rewind R). The 35-V was one of the best rangefinder cameras ever made but the days of the rangefinder were numbered before it was introduced. In 1957 Asahi Pentax introduced the first SLR and in 1959 Nikon introduced the Nikon F SLR camera (the most advanced camera of its day) plus Agfa releases the first automatic camera. Aires was counting on sales of their other 35-V lenses too move towards profit. This didn't happen and by 1962 the firm tried a leaf shutter SLR designed camera; that also failed. For Aires it was the end and bankruptcy. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $200.00 in 2019.
Ansco: Ansco 1065 camera  Ansco: Ansco 10651978  20166.50The Ansco 1065 is a simple 35mm snapshot viewfinder camera manufactured by Haking of Hong Kong, after they had gained ownership of the Ansco trademark in October of 1981. The registration date was filed in September of 1978 by Haking. The camera is the same as the 1979 Ansco 1100 made by the original Ansco company only with a hot shoe instead of a flash bar socket. This camera has a 45mm f/8 fixed focus lens and there is a simple 3-position aperture adjustment labeled with "weather conditions." The top panel includes a two conductor hot shoe for attaching a flash, a resettable frame counter on the top, a fold down rewind crank handle, and a shutter button. The camera also has a right thumb film advance wheel, a ¼” by 20 thread tripod mount, two hard points for attaching a strap, rewind release button on the bottom, and a 45mm view finder. The camera can handle ASA 100 to 400 film and this is recommended for best results. The camera is labeled Made in MACAU and has a Hi (Heye International) logo on the front. Haking’s is mostly known as Halina in the camera world and has produced many a camera under that name. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.

Ansco: Ansco 50 camera  Ansco: Ansco 501986 1/1/201410.00The Ansco 50 110 film cartridge camera is very small about 2 inches in length without the film in it. The 110 film is about an inch longer than the camera and is exposed when loaded. The half way point for the film cartridge is at the lens and the rest sticks out on the shutter release button side. The shutter speed was fixed at approximately 1/100 of a second and the fixed lens is somewhere around 45 or 50mm with f/8 or f/11 aperture. The camera has a thumb film advance wheel that also loaded the shutter. When you advance the film the shutter mechanism has a pin that enters a hole in the film that stop the advance at each frame and when you depressed the shutter release the pin retracted to allow you to access the next frame. This was true of all 110 manually advanced cameras. The Ansco 50 was once given as a toy camera at fast food establishments plus other promotions and is sometimes referred to as a Keychain camera even though it has no eyelet for that purpose. The Ansco 50 comes equipped with a fold down open frame viewfinder and a white sight line on the cameras top at the center of the view finding frame. The only other feature was on the film when loaded in the form of a frame counter by use of the view window on the back of the cartridge exposing the frame number printed on the film paper backing. This camera was introduced in 1986 toward the end of the heyday of the 110 film cartridge and was made in Hong Kong by a business that had purchased the Ansco name. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2014.

Ansco: Buster Brown No.2 camera  Ansco: Buster Brown No.21906-1923 20155.00This camera was released in a box with the Richard Felton Outcault’s cartoon strip “Buster Brown” displayed prominently on all sides of the box. The Ansco Buster Brown No 2 is a box type camera that was produced by Ansco of Binghamton, NY from 1906 to 1923. The \"Buster Brown\" model was Ansco\'s answer to the then popular Kodak \"Brownie\" line of box cameras. As the Kodak \"Brownie\" was named after the popular Palmer Cox cartoon, the \"Brownies\". The camera itself is a very basic box camera design. The entire body of the camera is constructed out of wood, including most of the internal film holder/chamber. The camera features both portrait plus landscape viewfinders, imitation leather covering, nickel plated or black painted trim, leaf shutter with approximately 1/50 of a second shutter speed, and a fixed focus glass lens. On the top of the camera there is a pull tab that allows the user to select three different aperture sizes. On the opposite side of the cameras shutter release lever there is a small tab that allows for time exposures when pulled out. An interesting thing to note about this camera is the \"D-ring\" advance key. Which, when flipped-out allows the user to easily advance the film and neatly tucks-in when not in use. Also, the camera would have originally used No. 4A (120) roll film. The camera pictured above is in poor condition and worth $3.00 in 2015.
Ansco: Cadet (I) camera  Ansco: Cadet (I)1959 202010.00The Ansco Cadet camera was manufactured by Ansco USA Division in circa 1959. Designed similar to the Ansco Cadet Flash camera, but with built-in flash contacts for use with the Anscoflash V attachment that used Class M flashbulbs. The Ansco Cadet provides the simple focus free features of a snapshot camera. It was made out of plastic with a metal faceplate, back plate, plus internal flash sync components. Features included a large optical viewfinder, double exposure prevention incorporated in the film advance mechanism, red frame count view window in the back cover, wind film advance wheel on the bottom of the camera, drop out film compartment for film changing ease, cloth carry strap, and easy color or black and white exposure setting. It was fitted with a fixed focus meniscus lens and Film advanced loaded shutter with 1/50 of a second speed. The camera takes twelve exposures on standard no. 127 film. The Cadet, Cadet Flash, and Cadet Reflex use the same bottom half and have the exact same drop-out film compartment. All three cameras have interchangeable drop-out film compartments with the exact same dimensions. When you look at the Cadet Flash’s left side you can see the indents for the flash attachment that the Cadet and Cadet Reflex uses only the Cadet Flash has no contacts. A great way to save design time for Ansco and use a platform that works. The Cadet outfit came with 1 roll of Ansco All-weather 127 film, two AA batteries, flash unit, 4 flash bulbs, and user’s manual (labeled “Your Ansco Cadet Camera”). The outfit sold for $14.00.
The design of this Ansco Cadet series was in competition with the contemporary, very much alike Kodak Brownie Star series - particularly the Starflex - with the winder in the base with a central foot, the strap loops, the three-point flash contacts and the general layout. But the design of the Ansco Cadet, Cadet Flash, and Cadet Reflex is foggy due to the existence of the Whitehouse Beacon Reflex plus Beacon One Twenty-Seven having an identical lower half, film compartment, and locking mechanisms for the film compartment. It is unclear if Whitehouse commissioned Ansco to make the Whitehouse designed cameras for them or this is an Ansco design sold or used by Whitehouse or even produced by Ansco for Whitehouse seeing how it is such a departure from all other Beacon cameras. The Kodak similar cameras were probably a copy, given Kodak’s track record, with subtle measurement differences like the distance plus size of the flash contacts, the narrowing of the base footprint, and location of the compartment locking device. Kodak always looked for a way to compete. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2020.
Ansco: Cadet Box B2 camera  Ansco: Cadet Box B21947 20194.00Introduced in 1947 the Ansco B2 Cadet came along the split from Agfa and Ansco's subsequent race to pack shelves with inexpensive amateur cameras. While it looks almost exactly like the earlier Agfa B2 Cadet, it is distinctly lower quality. Unlike the Agfa Cadet B2 and the Agfa Ansco Cadet B2 this camera has no Time exposure feature, uses a plastic frame advance knob, a thinner metal finish prone to rusting, a cardboard film holding compartment, and a compressed cardboard handle. The shutter speed is 1/50 of a second and the aperture about f/11. The minimum focus range is 8 feet (2.5M) and the best film to use in it is 50 to 100 ASA. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.
Ansco: Cadet Disc 100 cameraAnsco: Cadet Disc 100 camera  Ansco: Cadet Disc 100c1980s 202015.00Ansco Cadet Disc 100, Asaflex Discolor, Haking Disc 01-H and Halina Disc 100 were the identical camera and some sported adverts on the front as well as came in an assortment of colors. The Halina came in red, blue, orange, plus grey and all had black front lens surrounds plus film compartment covers. The Haking Disc 01-H, Ansco Cadet Disc 100, and Asaflex Discolor came in all black with a red shutter release button, red, blue, and yellow, all with a black front lens surrounds plus film compartment covers. All four cameras have a fixed f/4 optical lens, a single aperture, and 2 conductor Hot Shoe. The cameras could use any 2 conductor flash unit but the Ansco kit came with an Ansco-Lite F20. These cameras need no batteries and have a mechanical shutter, film advance, and shutter loading system. Some of the advertising on the front of the cameras was Swanson Pot Pies, Piedmont, Beefeater Gin, Budweiser, plus Coke or Coca Cola and some just had things like “Makin’ Magic”. The Haking Disc 01-H and Asaflex Discolor cameras were sold plus distributed by Haking Enterprises Limited based in Hong Kong and all four cameras were made in Taiwan. The Halina and Ansco branded cameras were distributed in the UK, Ireland, the Middle East and Africa by a company called Halina Imaging, part of the British photographic distribution company SPS Logistics. The red camera here also donned the Coca-Cola emblem and were a giveaway like other certain select advertising models. The film for the cameras forms a flat disc, and is fully housed within a plastic cartridge. Each disc holds fifteen 10 × 8 mm exposures, arranged around the outside of the disc, with the disc being rotated 24° between each image. It was introduced by Kodak in 1982 and last manufactured in 1999, though the cameras had disappeared from the market long before then. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2020.

Ansco: Cadet Flash camera  Ansco: Cadet Flash1960 202012.00The Ansco Cadet Flash camera was manufactured by Ansco USA Division in circa 1960. Designed similar to the original Cadet camera, but with a built-in flash with reflector for use of standard AG-1 or AG-1b flashbulbs, and had a flashbulb ejector button in the back of the flash unit. The Ansco Cadet Flash provides the simple focus free features of a snapshot camera. It was made out of plastic with a metal faceplate, back plate, plus internal flash components. Features included a large optical viewfinder, built-in synchronized flash with reflector, double exposure prevention incorporated in the film advance mechanism, red frame count view window in the back cover, wind film advance wheel on the bottom of the camera, drop out film compartment for film changing ease, permanently attached cloth carry strap, and easy color or black and white exposure setting. It was fitted with a fixed focus meniscus lens and film advance loaded shutter with 1/50 of a second speed. The camera takes twelve exposures on standard no. 127 film.

Ansco: Coca Cola (Polar Bear) camera  Ansco: Coca Cola (Polar Bear)c2000s 202015.00Coca-Cola began using polar bears for print advertising in 1922. And the polar bears would appear occasionally in printed advertisements over the next seventy years. It wasn’t until 1992 that advertising professional Ken Stewart gave life to the Coca-Cola polar bears in the popular Northern Lights television commercial in February 1993. The Coke polar bears were one of the first digitally animated advertising campaigns. The television commercials featuring the polar bears touched on the emotion and magic that many of Coca-Cola’s previous ad campaigns had done. Starting in 1993, the Coca-Cola Polar Bears from the “Always Coca-Cola” (admit it, you just sang that in your head) series of advertisements and many more successful marketing campaigns came complete with matching Coke merchandise.
Manufactured in 1999, the Coca-Cola Polar Bear Camera could be purchased in a Coca-Cola collector tin or bought by itself in a sealed plastic clamshell package. The camera came with two AA batteries and a roll of Kodak Max 400 color film, a Coke branded camera case, and camera strap. The camera is a simple point-and-shoot, with no special features other than being automatic and motorized. Sliding the polar bear, holding a bottle of Coke, to the side reveals about a 35mm f/5.6 lens. The camera automatically senses light and fires the flash if needed. The top of the camera features a frame counter and a switch to rewind the film. The shutter is triggered by pressing the Coca-Cola bottle cap at the top. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2020.

Ansco: Dollar Box camera  Ansco: Dollar Box1910-1928 20175.00The Ansco Dollar camera is a simple box camera that I picked up in Belfast, Maine. It takes 8 images on 127 film. They're cleaner images than I was expecting. Except for that thread in the corner. The camera was produced from 1910 to 1928 and is a small 4x3½x2½" box camera for 127 film. Available in black, burgundy or green. No strap. Some are identified "Ansco Dollar Camera" on the front. The same camera in red and with a strap was sold as the Kiddie Camera from 1926 to 1929. Boys Life magazine touted it as “The biggest dollars’ worth your money can buy” in 1924. In fine condition this camera is worth $20.00 to $30.00 in 2016. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.

Ansco: Flash Clipper camera  Ansco: Flash Clipper1940s-1952 20175.00The Ansco Clipper and Flash Clipper were simple non-adjustable cameras made by Agfa Ansco, later Ansco, from the 1940s into 1954. (The series began as the Agfa Ansco PD16 Clipper, but Agfa branding was dropped during the WWII years.) The lens board pulled out of the camera body for taking pictures, and collapsed to make the camera more compact when not in use. The focus and aperture were fixed, while the shutter had I (Instant) and B (Bulb or timed) settings. The Flash Clipper was modified with an accessory shoe, and a proprietary two-pin flash sync connection beside the lens. The Flash Champion is a name variant of the Flash Clipper. An upmarket, higher-spec version of the same camera (featuring focus and exposure adjustments) was the Clipper Special. The camera was constructed of metal and covered with a water resistant plastic cover. It took sixteen 2 1/2 x 2 1/8 inch sized exposures on standard no. 616 roll film. The Ansco Flash Clipper featured a fixed focus 2 element f11 doublet lens, and a direct optical view finder. The camera measures about 5 x 3 3/4 x 2 1/4 inches when folded. The Ansco Flash Clipper camera with flash unit was originally priced at approximately $18.50. The camera only ranged from $12.50 to $14.50.

Ansco: Memar camera  Ansco: Memar1954-1958 201915.00The 35mm Memar was introduced in 1954 and production was discontinued in 1958. It was made by Agfa under the Ansco name and is the same camera as the first Agfa Silette. The Memar features are an optical viewfinder, a leaf shutter, a single action lever wind advance, a flash socket in the front of the camera, aperture settings of 3.5 to 16, focus range of 3 feet (914.4mm) to infinity, and an accessory shoe (Agfa KM flash compatible). Its shutter is a Pronto (1/25 of a second to 1/200 plus B). The lenses are three element Agfa Apotar 3.5/45mm that most Memar’s had or an Agfa Color Apotar 2.8/45mm. In the USA, it was known as the Ansco Memar and sold at a suggested retail price of $39.95. The camera body was made of die-cast metal and covered in black leather. The exposed metal parts were finished in satin chrome. The Agfa Silette (type 1, not to be confused with the Silette I) did have subtle difference but only when it came to the number of lens and shutter combination that could be found on the camera. Agfa made the Silette in some form from 1953 to the mid-60s. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.

Ansco: Readyset Royal No.1A brown camera  Ansco: Readyset Royal No.1A brown1925-1932 201815.00The Readyset Royal No.1, 1A cameras were manufactured by Agfa Ansco between 1925 and 1932. The Readyset Royal cameras were made distinctive by their coverings. The camera features were similar to that of the regular Ansco Readyset. These folding cameras were constructed of metal. They were fitted with a fixed focus lens with an f/8 aperture mounted in a simple instantaneous 1/30 of a second leaf shutter with a manual time release setting. In 1925 Ansco first released the Ostrich version. This version had a genuine leather covering dyed golden-brown and pimpled to resemble Ostrich skin and the bellows are maroon. In 1931 the second version was the Silver Fox version. This version also had a genuine leather covering but it was dyed brown and black to look like the fur of a silver fox which gave the camera a truly unique and enduring design. The exposed metal parts are painted with grey enamel and the bellows are black. The 1A produces a 2½”x 4¼'' picture. The Readyset Royal 1A uses B2 Agfa film, 4A Ansco film, or 120 Kodak film.

Ansco: Speedex 4.5 camera  Ansco: Speedex 4.51946-1950  201715.00The Ansco Speedex 4.5 camera was sold under the Ansco name but features an Afga badge on the internals. It features 4 shutter speeds at 200, 50, 25, and ‘B’ as well as the variable diaphragm from 4.5 through 32. It has adjustable focus which is marked at 3, 3.5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 30, and Infinite feet. It also features a flash sync for mountable flash, a Vario lens, PC flash sync, an optical viewfinder, cold shoe, oval red window in the back cover for frame count, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and double exposure prevention but is over rideable. The Ansco Speedex 4.5 “Special” is basically an Agfa Isolette (German camera) but with an Ansco trademark for the North American market. The Ansco Speedex 4.5 had a 1/200 of a second shutter and the Ansco Speedex 4.5 Special and Special R had a 1/300 of a second shutter and the “R” stood for rangefinder. In 1946 the The Speedex 4.5 sold for $32.00, the Special for $44.00, and the Special R for $50.00. The Speedex 4.5 was produced from 1946 to 1950 but sold for some years later. Like its Agfa twin, the Speedex 4.5 “Special” was aimed to the advanced amateur. It allowed for variable focus and an extended range of exposure settings. In 1955 its advertised price was $47.50 with a leather case for $5 more. The Ansco Speedex, Speedex Special, and Speedex Special R are considered a medium format pocket folder Ansco. Originally the cameras were made by Anthony & Scovill but they merged with Argus in early 1938. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.

Argus: 3D Stereo camera  Argus: 3D Stereo1998 20175.00Argus, in 1998, sold a stereo camera that uses two mirrors called a beam splitter to create stereo exposure pairs that can be printed after conventional developing and viewed with a lorgnette (special pair of lenses or viewer). The camera sold for under $90 including the supplied viewer. The Argus 3D Stereo camera is a rebranded Loreo 3D camera and they both use ordinary 35mm film. The camera requires no special processing or printing. Simply have your film processed to prints as usual. The prints will automatically show two perspective views of your picture, which allows you to enjoy viewing full stereo depth using a 3D viewer. You will be able, through the viewer, to see your pictures with a realism no ordinary camera can give you. 3-D pictures require a wide sharpness range so that near and distant objects are shown with equal sharpness. Your cameras 28mm lens is set so that pictures can be taken from as close as 80 cm (2.5 feet) to infinity. The camera has no device for manual focusing adjustment. To activate the flash you have to push the Flash selector switch to the left and the flash will spring open. When using the flash the best results are obtained if your subject is between 1.5m (5 feet) and 2.5m (8 feet) from the camera with 200 ISO film. 400 ISO speed film increases that range to 3.0m (9 feet). To close the flash reflector you simply push the reflector hood down with your hand until it locks. To conserve the batteries always switch off the flash by closing the reflector hood when not needed. The camera has a flash ready LED next to the viewfinder view port and the flash is powered by two AA batteries. Unfortunately the batteries were left in this camera and the flash does not work due to corroded terminals. For this reason the camera is worth $5.00 in 2020.

Argus: Argoflex Seventy-Five camera  Argus: Argoflex Seventy-Five1949-1953 20174.00The Argus Seventy-five has a twin lens reflex design with a fixed-focus lens and everything between 6 feet and infinity will be sharp. For close up shots Argus manufactured lenses that could be fitted. The Argus Seventy-five produces 6x6 images and takes 620 film no longer available. Respooling a role of 120 film to fit the camera isn't hard. You'll need a dark room and two 620 spools if your camera hasn't got an integrated take up spool. This allows you to use the first to spool the 120 film on the first 620 spool, and then roll it onto the second spool. This way it's hardly ever necessary to adjust the tape that connects the film to the paper back. The Argus Seventy-five was manufactured from 1953 to 1958. Virtually indestructible this camera is constructed from thick Bakelite, glass lenses, and Aluminum. The predecessor of this camera was the Argoflex Seventy-five, which was manufactured from 1949 to 1953. The name of the Argoflex Seventy-five was changed to Argus Seventy-five in 1953, which is the same year the name of the Argoflex 40 was changed to Argus 40. This was a marketing campaign for reintroduction of both cameras. The Argus Seventy-five was followed by the Argus 75 (numbers not script), which was manufactured between 1958 and 1964 in a lighter brown color but the same exact camera. To recap the “Argoflex Seventy Five”, the “Argus Seventy Five”, and the “Argus 75” have interchangeable parts but the paint design plus name was changed on the aluminum. In essence Argus was able to manufacture the same camera for 15 years from 1949 to 1964. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth about $5.00 in 2017.

Argus: Argus C3 camera  Argus: Argus C31939-1966 201710.00The Argus C3 was a low-priced rangefinder camera mass-produced from 1939 to 1966 by Argus in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA. The camera was the best-selling 35mm camera in the world for nearly three decades, and helped popularize the 35mm format. Due to its shape, size, and weight, it is commonly referred to as "The Brick" by photographers (in Japan its nickname translates as "The Lunchbox"). The most famous 20th century photographer who used it was Tony Vaccaro, who employed this model during World War II
The C3 was constructed primarily of Bakelite plastic and metal castings. The design featured an unusual and simplistic diaphragm shutter built into the camera body, so the camera could make use of interchangeable lenses without the need for a complex focal plane shutter. The rangefinder utilized a separate viewfinder from that of the regular viewfinder and was coupled to the lens through a series of gears located on the outside of the camera body. The profusion of knobs, gears, buttons, levers, and dials on the camera lent it a "scientific" look that was found in customer surveys to be one of the things buyers most liked about the camera.
By virtue of its low price and reputation for rugged durability the Argus C3 managed to outlast most of its American competition and fend off precision German-built cameras and the cheap high quality Japanese cameras that began to enter the American market in the 1950s. But eventually the design simply became too outdated and clumsy and production ended in 1966 after sales had slumped. Interestingly, sales of the C3 had slumped many times during its production life, and each time Argus announced they were going to discontinue the camera, dealers and photographers would rush to buy what they believed to be the last of the cameras, leading Argus to reverse their decision to end production several times.
It has been argued the Argus C3 is responsible for popularizing the use of 35mm film, and considering the long production run and the high number of Argus C3 cameras made, this may very well be true, especially in its native United States.
Although the design is now over 75 years old, the C3 retains a strong following due to its simplicity and durability, as well as nostalgia value. Used C3s are cheap and plentiful, and their simple construction makes them relatively easy to repair. The C3 pictured here is in good condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.

Argus: Argus C44 camera  Argus: Argus C441956-1957 201520.00The Geiss Company of Chicago customized Argus C4 cameras for interchangeable lenses which were made by Enna in Munich, Germany. Argus took what they were doing and followed suit with the C44 (spelled out as "c-forty-four" on the camera itself). The camera shared the same body as the C4, including that model's improved rangefinder/viewfinder. The only real difference was in the lenses. The standard Cintagon 50mm f/2.8 was the first 4-element lens (Tessar-type) that the Ann Arbor factory produced. The design was said to have been computed with the help of an early digital computer, 'MIDAC (Michigan Digital Automatic computer),' belonging to the University of Michigan and developed in 1951. Three other focal lengths were offered as well: 50mm f/1.9; 35mm f/4.5 and 100mm f/3.5. These were manufactured by Steinheil in Germany, to a somewhat higher standard of finish, but also branded Cintagon. However the C44 bayonet is clumsy to use, as a lens cannot be mounted until pairs of small red guide marks inside the mount throat and the lens bayonet are aligned. The C44 employs a behind-the-lens leaf shutter (as do other Argus C-series models), offering speeds of 1/10 to 1/300 of a second and B. This fires with an unexpectedly noisy snap, not unlike a mousetrap closing. The camera's frame counter counts down to 0, so the user must remember to re-set it to the correct number of frames with each re-loading and hope not to bump it accidentally after that. A new C44 owner will search in vain for a rewind-release button. Instead, lifting and slightly twisting the advance knob disengages the film drive and allows the roll to be rewound. The camera does have a two contact hot shoe that went well with the Argus flash unit designed for it. The flash unit mount has a spring loaded center contact and a locking lever on the side to secure it to the camera. It operates using two 1.5 volt C batteries that are loaded in the unit and add quite a bit of weight. The camera pictured here is in poor condition due to a bad shutter and worth $10.00 for parts in 2015.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 164 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 1641968 20164.00The Argus Instant Load 164 started being produced in 1968 and ended in 1969 after Sylvania was sold and camera production was suspended. Sylvania owned Argus 10 years at that time. The camera weighs 4.6 ounces and is 4"x2"x2.5". It takes 126 Cartridge film and uses flash cubes that advance with the frame wheel. The flash cube mount is powered by two PX825 batteries that are housed in the film compartment. The PX825 battery is no longer available but replacements do exist. Frames are advanced with a right thumb wheel that also loads the shutter. The camera also has a ¼” by 20 thread tripod mount, optical viewfinder, film view window that shows the frame number, and has a handy carry strap. The 164 was one of the last of the Instant Load series and the cheapest. The Instant Load in the name denotes the ease of film change with 126 cartridge film. This is a point and shoot camera that is closer to a Box camera than cameras of that era. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 257 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 2571966  20165.00The following in quotes is from newspaper ad in 1966, the release year. "It’s automatically goof proof! Uses 126 film cartridge load for slides or prints. Has fully automatic electric eye that gives you perfect focus every time! Comparable Value $44.95, now only $27.63.” The camera weighs 13.4 ounces and the Dimensions are 4.75"x2.25"x2.75". It has a flash socket on the top center of the camera under a flip up shield with a flash bulb eject lever in the back. The socket takes the AG3B cap less type flash bulb used on many cameras of the era and rated to 30 meters with 100 ASA film. The flash is powered by two N type batteries held in a compartment with a sliding cover on the bottom of the camera. The lens is an Argus coated Cintar and focus range of 3 feet to infinity. This Instant Load 257 also has a thumb lever film advance, a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and a large shutter button on the front of the camera. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 260 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 2601965-1966 20165.00The camera was introduced by Argus in 1965 and discontinued in 1966. Argus was the first brand to follow Kodak at the launch of the cartridge 126. The camera weighs 13.4 ounces and the Dimensions are 4.75"x2.25"x2.75" and uses 126mm film. It has a flash socket on the top center of the camera under a flip up shield with a flash bulb eject lever in the back. The socket takes the AG1 cap less type flash bulb for black and white photos, AG1B (the B stands for blue that omitted the yellow cast of the clear tungsten bulbs that was not a problem with B/W photos) plus the high powered AG3B also for color photos and were used on many cameras of the era. Later models of the Instant Load series used a Flash Cube mount like the Instant Load 264. The flash is powered by two N type batteries held in a compartment with a sliding cover on the bottom of the camera. The f2.8 lens is an Argus coated Cintar and focus range of 3 feet to infinity. This Instant Load 260 also has a thumb lever film advance, a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and a large shutter button on the front of the camera. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $5.00 in 2016.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 260 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 2601965-1966 20185.00Argus was the first brand to follow Kodak after launching the 126 cartridge. For this, the brand gave the manufacture of its model 260 to Mamiya. This one was quite evolved, better than most Kodak 126 devices of the time. They followed that with a series of several models also manufactured by Mamiya (257, 264), then others (270, 284) manufactured by Sedic. To provide a full range of 126, Argus was also partnering with Balda to deliver low-end devices.
The 264 is the evolution of the model 260. The 260, equipped with an AG-1 bulb, was considered outdated when the flashcube was introduced (1966 by Sylvania). Argus then modified the 260 to use the flashcube. The other technical characteristics remained identical. The electronic shutter, exposure control, and flash was powered by two 1.5 volt size N batteries stored in the bottom of the camera. The exposure control is fully automatic determined by the sensitivity of the film. The Argus Instant Load 260 was manufactured in Japan by Mamiya from 1965-1966 and replaced by the 264.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 270 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 2701966-1967 201615.00The Instant Load 270 was introduced in 1966 and was discontinued in 1967. It is a 126 cartridge film (discontinued in 1999) camera with a 40mm f/2.8 lens. It also has a CdS light meter, optical viewfinder, a two connector hot shoe, right thumb lever film advance, and was made in Japan and relabeled Argus, probably made by Mamiya. Argus had not produced a camera in the US since 1963 but did have optics contracts but the era of US-designed and -manufactured cameras had ended. The 270 gives the photographer no help in focusing beyond marking portrait, group, and landscape on the focus barrel. The camera used a PX-13 mercury based battery no longer available or legal to sell. They do make a replacement like the Duracell 625A, Wein Cell Px625, and the Energizer A76. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2016.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 284 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 2841967  20165.00Argus entered the 126 camera market in 1964 with the Argus 260. The Instant Load 284 was released in 1967 as the top end of the Argus 126 cartridge lineup and originally sold for $87. At this stage in its history, Argus was having other manufacturers make a lot of its models and the 284 was made in Japan by Sedic. It has a hot shoe plus a flash cube socket, 40mm Argus Cintagon coated lens, right thumb film advance lever, and a PC socket. It has a CdS cell that could be used to set the shutter speed and aperture. The 284 also has manual aperture settings from f/2.8 to f/22. The shutter speed is around 1/50 of a second. It has two battery compartments, one 625 battery (mercury battery replacement 625A, PX625A, and MRB625) drives the CdS meter. It is worth noting that this camera like others using mercury batteries do not have voltage regulators because the mercury battery discharge was so accurate. The Alkaline replacement batteries will make the camera work but with erratic results without some wiring. The camera also uses two obsolete 1.5 volt PX-825 batteries to power the built in flash cube holder it has on the top. The PX-825 battery is also known as the LR53, EPX825, V825PX, HPX825, RPX825, BLR53, KA825, and Pertrix 7201 some may be available on line. In the case of the 825 battery, you can also find fixes, rigs, and add-ons on line. Focusing is by distance scale and the distance markings are both on the lens and viewable through the viewfinder. The camera pictured here is in Poor working condition and is for display or parts only. It is worth $3.00 in 2016.
Argus: Argus Instant Load 364 camera  Argus: Argus Instant Load 3641968 20206.00The Argus Instant Load 364 was introduced in 1968 and made by the Balda-Werke Company (Argus) out of Germany. The body is the same as the Instant Load 164, Carefree Instant Load, Instant Load 144 Skylark, Instant Load Sidekick, Instant Load 164, Lady Debutante (not branded "Argus"), Lady Carefree, and Lady Carefree Elite (all with no light measuring device)(Box cameras with flash). The body was also used for the Instant Load 364, Go-Light Carefree 366, Instant Load 374, and Instant Load 374 transparent front (all had light metering). The Instant Load 364 was the only one with a fake walnut finish surrounding the lens. The camera production ended in 1969 after Sylvania was sold and camera production was suspended. Sylvania owned Argus 10 years at that time. All the cameras take 126 Cartridge film and uses flash cubes that advance with the frame wheel. The flash cube mount plus electric eye is powered by two PX825 batteries that are housed in the film compartment. The mercury PX825 battery is no longer available but replacements do exist. It is worth noting that this camera like others using mercury batteries does not have voltage regulators because the mercury battery discharge was so accurate. Results with the replacement batteries may be sketchy. Frames are advanced with a right thumb wheel that also loads the shutter. The camera also has a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, optical viewfinder, film view window that shows the frame number, and has a handy carry strap. The Instant Load in the name denotes the ease of film change with 126 cartridge film. These cameras can suffer from electrolysis damage to the shutter assembly that leaves deposits on the blades if the batteries are left in. Removing batteries when not in use is always a good idea. The camera pictured here is in Poor working condition and worth $3.00 for parts or display in 2020.

Argus: Argus Seventy-Five camera  Argus: Argus Seventy-Five1953-1958 20172.00The Argus Seventy-five has a twin lens reflex design with a fixed-focus lens and everything between 6 feet and infinity will be sharp. For close up shots Argus manufactured lenses that could be fitted. The Argus Seventy-five produces 6x6 images and takes 620 film no longer available. Respooling a role of 120 film to fit the camera isn't hard. You'll need a dark room and two 620 spools if your camera hasn't got an integrated take up spool. This allows you to use the first to spool the 120 film on the first 620 spool, and then roll it onto the second spool. This way it's hardly ever necessary to adjust the tape that connects the film to the paper back. The Argus Seventy-five was manufactured from 1953 to 1958. Virtually indestructible this camera is constructed from thick Bakelite, glass lenses, and Aluminum. The predecessor of this camera was the Argoflex Seventy-five, which was manufactured from 1949 to 1953. The name of the Argoflex Seventy-five was changed to Argus Seventy-five in 1953, which is the same year the name of the Argoflex 40 was changed to Argus 40. This was a marketing campaign for reintroduction of both cameras. The Argus Seventy-five was followed by the Argus 75 (numbers not script), which was manufactured between 1958 and 1964 in a lighter brown color but the same exact camera. To recap the “Argoflex Seventy Five”, the “Argus Seventy Five”, and the “Argus 75” have interchangeable parts but the paint design plus name was changed on the aluminum. In essence Argus was able to manufacture the same camera for 15 years from 1949 to 1964. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth about $8.00 in 2017.

The mode button selects no flash, Red eye reduction, portrait, landscape, and night. On the top of the camera is the shutter button, the name of the camera (Argus M5700D), and printed in the center is “AUTO FOCUS/PROGRAMED EXPOSURE”. The view finder adjusts with the lens and a LED next to the eye piece indicates flash ready. On the bottom of the camera is the battery compartment that houses one CR123 3 volt lithium battery, the serial number, ¼ inch 20 thread tripod mount, and the words ”MADE IN CHINA” PRINTED IN THE CENTER. The camera also has auto film load, auto film advance, auto rewind, mid roll rewind, built in lens cover, built in flash, film view window, and a strap attach point. It is unclear if the camera was made by Argus or rebadged by Argus and the history of the Argus Company is vague during this period. The lens could be Canon, Minolta, or any number of Japanese companies. The Argus brand has been reestablished and is used on a variety of inexpensive digital cameras made by Argus Camera Company, LLC, located in Inverness, Illinois. But, the first cameras were made in 2009 and before that 1967. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.
Asahi: Honeywell Pentax Spotmatic (SP) camera  Asahi: Honeywell Pentax Spotmatic (SP)1964 201720.00The Pentax Spotmatic refers to a family of 35mm single-lens reflex cameras manufactured by the Asahi Optical Co. Ltd., later known as Pentax Corporation, between 1964 and 1976. The camera was also released as the Asahi Pentax Spotmatic about the same time. All Pentax Spotmatics used the M42 screw-thread lens mount which was developed before WW2 by Zeiss and Praktica. The cameras allowed the user to focus the lens at maximum aperture to give a bright viewfinder image, then a switch at the side stops the lens down and switches on the metering which can be determined by a needle located on the side of the viewfinder. The use of stop-down light metering was at the time revolutionary, however it limited the capability of the light meter especially on low light situations. Honeywell was the U.S. importer of the Spotmatic. Cameras officially imported by Honeywell were labeled Honeywell Pentax, instead of Asahi Pentax. The original 1964 Spotmatic was one of the first SLRs on the market to offer a through-the-lens (TTL) exposure metering system. The camera was presented as a prototype at the Photokina trade fair in 1960, and was originally designed to use spot metering. Shortly before production Asahi decided that spot metering would be too difficult to use, and so the metering system was altered to use center-weighted average metering. The change took place too close to production to change the name, and so Spotmatic stuck. The camera has a mechanical shutter with speed range from 1/1000 of a second to 1 second and Bulb. The lightmeter is activated by a lever on the side of the camera, which also stopped down the lens. A Mercury battery (1.35 V Mallory RM640) was used to power the light metering system; however due to the way the circuit is designed, silver oxide batteries can be used instead. The camera pictured here is in poor condition due to a corroded battery compartment for the light meter. The 55mm Mamiya lens is worth $15.00 and the camera body $10.00 in 2017.
Asahi: Pentax Auto 110 camera  Asahi: Pentax Auto 1101979-1983 201712.00The Pentax Auto 110 is a single-lens reflex camera made by Asahi Pentax that use Kodak's 110 film cartridge. The Auto 110 was introduced with three interchangeable lenses in 1978. Three more lenses were introduced in 1981, and then the Super model was released in 1982. The camera system was sold until 1985. The complete system is sometimes known as the Pentax System 10, apparently for its official Pentax name, although most Pentax advertising only uses the camera name or Pentax-110. This model represented the only complete ultraminiature SLR system manufactured for the 110 film format, although several fixed-lens 110 SLRs were sold. The camera system also claims to be the smallest interchangeable-lens SLR system ever created. The cameras and lenses were very small (the camera fits in the palm of a hand easily) and were made to professional SLR standards of quality. The camera was offered in a special edition "Safari" model, identical to the Auto 110 except for the brown-and-tan color scheme. The Pentax Auto 110 featured fully automatic exposure, with no user-settable exposure compensation or adjustments. Metering was TTL (through-the-lens) and center-weighted. Unlike 35 mm SLRs, the system's lenses did not have a built-in iris to control the aperture. Instead, an iris was mounted inside the camera body, and functioned as both an aperture control and a shutter. This mechanism was capable of programmed exposures between 1/750 of a second at f/13.5; and 1 second at F/2.8. Information found on Wikipedia. The camera pictured here in in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.
Asahi: Pentax Espio 115G camera  Asahi: Pentax Espio 115G1996 20175.00The Pentax Espio 115G QD point-and-shoot film camera was introduced in 1996. With an aperture range of f/10.5 to f/3.9, this Pentax camera lets you capture brilliant photos even in low lighting conditions. What’s more, the autofocus system in the Pentax Espio 115G QD film camera helps deliver perfectly focused photographs, with great ease and with auto-exposure, this Pentax camera lets you shoot photos under varying light conditions. The self-timer function in this point-and-shoot film camera lets you capture blur-free self-portraits and also allows you to be part of a group photograph. The camera also has a 38 to 115mm zoom lens and uses DX coded film only. The camera also has two bulb mode settings. The regular bulb setting that will expose for up to 5 minutes, as long as you hold the shutter release down that long and In addition, the 115G has something called “Bulb Sync” mode, which adds a flash burst to the beginning of the exposure. Like a lot of cameras from this era (the 1990s) the 115G has a panoramic mimic mode that crops the 35mm film and is processed to produce a panoramic print. The camera uses one CR-2 size battery and it is good for about 8 rolls of film. The cameras other features are the auto frame advance, auto rewind plus mid roll rewind, ¼”x1 ¼” LCD data display, red eye reduction, date imprinting, flash ready LED, optical viewfinder with focus adjuster, built in automatic lens cover, and a handy carry strap. The camera pictured here (with original box plus instructions) is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.

Bell & Howell: Auto 35 Reflex camera  Bell & Howell: Auto 35 Reflex1969-1973 2022giftThe Bell & Howell Auto 35 Reflex is a 35 mm SLR camera made by Canon, relabeled by Bell & Howell, and sold from 1969 until 1973. Canon released the camera as the Canon EX-EE that same year 1969. Its most characteristic feature is a rear lens-group (three elements in two groups) fixed on the camera and incorporating the helical focusing mechanism, to which any of a small selection of front groups can be attached by a simple screw fitting. The Auto 35 Reflex offers through-the-lens metering and shutter-priority AE. It has a focal plane shutter with cloth blinds, travelling horizontally. It offers shutter speeds from 1/8 to 1/500 second plus \'B\', and has a self-timer lever on the front of the body (approximately 10s max). Other features are a cold shoe, fold down rewind crank handle, plus a rewind release button on the bottom, a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod mount, a right thumb single action film advance lever, and a PC socket next to the left-hand strap lug (X-synchronization for flash is at 1/60 second). The aperture is set on a dial around the rewind crank, between f/1.8 and f/16; there are also \'EE\' (i.e. auto-exposure) and \'Off\' positions. The aperture set is displayed in the viewfinder on a scale with a needle. The CdS meter reads between EV 4.75 and EV 17 and it requires a 1.3V mercury battery or modern substitute. However, the shutter speeds are timed mechanically, so the camera functions without a battery (without metering). Some of the Zinc based replacement batteries are the WeinCell MRB625 and Exell MRB625. This camera also has Canon’s QL feature meaning quick load. The film leader is simply pulled across the film compartment to a mark, and the back closed, and the uptake mechanism then captures the leader when the advance is wound. The Canon EXEE sold for 33,000 yen (about $290) in Japan in 1969 and the Bell & Howell Auto 35 Reflex sold for about $160.00 in the United States in 1969.

Bell & Howell: EZ 35 Autofocus camera  Bell & Howell: EZ 35 Autofocusc1980  20174.00This is the later Bell and Howell EZ35 which was auto focus. They were both produced by Haking and made in Hong Kong, plus they have similarities with other cameras from that company in that period. The 38mm f3.8 lens is slightly wide angle for that format (normal 43.5mm). The thumb wheel advance and built in flash on the older camera suggest it was made around 1980 whereas the autofocus model is fully automatic and released about 1982. The camera has settings to accommodate ASA 50, 100, 200, and ASA 400 film. The older model has a fixed flash unit and the newer model is pop-up with an on/off switch in the front under the flash unit. Both cameras work with two alkaline AA batteries. The automatic model uses the flash before the shutter to indicate the frame is in focus and a red light in the viewfinder to indicate a need for the pop-up flash or low light condition. The camera has the EAF (Easy Automatic Focus) System, an optical viewfinder, frame counter, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. It does not have mid-roll rewind nor any adjustments other than ASA settings. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Bencini: Comet S camera  Bencini: Comet Sc1950 201810.00The original Bencini Comet cameras are viewfinder cameras for either 3x4 or 4x4 cm pictures on 127 film, made in Italy by CMF Bencini from 1948 into the 1950s. They are smaller versions of the 120 film Bencini Koroll range, solidly built from metal castings with a sheet metal back. Their controls are limited to instantaneous (1/50 second) or 'B' shutter and (in most models) a focusing lens. The focus range of the Comet S is 3.3 feet (1M) to infinity and it has a simple leaf shutter. The camera also has PC flash connector with M synch. The Bencini Comet S is a small and light camera. It is made from an aluminum alloy which was polished. It is a half frame camera using 127 film. The negative size is 3 x 4 cm which is approximately twice the size of 35mm. You get 16 negatives on a roll of 127 film. The viewfinder is very small and the eye piece only measures three millimeters across. You need to look at the two round red windows on the back when winding to the next frame. As this is a half-frame camera, each number is used twice - first in the left hand window and then in the right hand one. The Bencini Comet S was introduced in 1950 and made in Milano. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.

Bilora (Kürbi & Niggeloh): Stahl-Box (1952) camera  Bilora (Kürbi & Niggeloh): Stahl-Box (1952)c1952 20176.00Cameras were produced from 1935 in Radevormwald. From the first "Box" to the "Bilomatic" line and the fabrication stopped in 1975. Imagine, in 21 years there were more than one million cameras produced. In later years, the Bilora brand was used for camera accessories, particularly tripods.
The Bilora Stahl-Box camera was manufactured by the Kurbi & Niggeloh Company of Radevormwald/RHLD, Germany in circa 1952. This box camera is constructed of metal with an art deco etched face plate. It is capable of capturing 6 X 9 cm exposures on no. 120 roll film. It was fitted with a fixed focus Meniscus lens and a simple B & M shutter with two settings of I for instant plus B for bulb. It also has two brilliant viewfinders for portrait and landscape. A flash attachment could be fitted using the double hole receptacle on the top. The camera measures 4 1/2 x 3 /18 x 4 1/2 inches. The Stahl Box camera is also known by the name Wardette made by Bilora for Montgomery Ward. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Braun Carl: Mastermatic 330 camera  Braun Carl: Mastermatic 330c1970s 20197.00The Mastermatic 330 was a fixed focus camera manufactured in Allemagne Germany in the 1970s and used 126 sealed film cartridges. It has a Steinheil-Cassarit Color-objektiv 45mm lens and a selenium meter that adjusts the aperture accordingly. It also features a Flash Cube socket that does a ¼ turn to the next flashbulb, a film view window in the back cover for frame counting, optical viewfinder, a battery compartment for two AAA batteries in the bottom of the camera, a right thumb film advance wheel, and a large shutter release button on the side of the lens assembly. Interesting fact: 126 film cartridges were made by other companies besides Kodak. One of them was Triple-Print film labs from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the 1970s and they sold Triple color print film with photofinishing. For each negative, the user received a large photo and two mini photos. The “triple print” was a promotion to mail your film and get 3 prints per negative mailed back to you for a nominal fee. Another finisher with the same deal was Jet Age Service, also from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania but at a different address. The camera pictured here is in poor condition and worth $2.00 for parts in 2019.
Busch Corp.: Pressman (2x3) camera  Busch Corp.: Pressman (2x3)c1960s 201995.00Busch Pressman type C 2¼x3¼" (6x9 cm) exposures plate camera was sold with a Rapax shutter, Raptar 101 mm F4.5 lens and a Kalart rangefinder. Often times the lens was either changed or the camera was fitted by the owner with a Kodak Ektar f4.7 127mm, Kodak Ektar f4.5 101mm, or a Wollensak f4.5 101mm lens. The Busch Pressman cameras were produced by Busch Precision Camera of Chicago, Illinois, in the 1960s. It is an original press camera. This little press camera with double extension is very compact. Closed, it measures only 8 x 12 x 8 cm. The camera allows swings and shifts like a large view camera and a roll holder that accepts 120 films are available. Some versions have a viewfinder with parallax correction, a Kalart rangefinder, a wire frame finder viewfinder, and a ground glass rear viewfinder. In 1960 the Model C was sold for $US 73.40 without a lens. Busch Pressman cameras are relatively common in the United States. Two sizes (2x3, Model C; 4x5, Model D) of Busch Pressman were sold by Busch and by Sears & Roebuck, a large and then very important catalog department store, as Tower Press cameras. Note: There are two ways to use roll film with a 2x3 Pressman. Use 120 film in an Adapt-A-Roll 620 holder, which will feed on a 120 spool but must take up on a 620 spool or replace the Busch spring back with a Graflok back taken from a 2x3 Graphic, and then use any of the roll holders that can be attached to a 2x3 Graflok. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $150.00 in 2019.

Canon: Aqua Snappy (AS-6 / Acty) camera  Canon: Aqua Snappy (AS-6 / Acty)1986  20160.10Although the AS-6 was part of Canon's low-cost Snappy series, it has retained cult appeal due to it being capable of shooting up to 10m (32.8 feet) underwater. This 35mm model has a fixed focus 35mm f/4.5 lens, program auto exposure, and motorized film transport. It has DX coding for ISO 100 or 400 film and uses 2 AAA batteries. The camera came with a cowing that surrounded the flash, viewfinder, and lens with a spot for mounting a large underwater viewfinder and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. It also has a shutter lock slide switch, frame counter, flash on/off switch, flash ready light near the optical viewfinder, and a handy carry strap with the lens cap attached. The camera was introduced by Canon in 1986 and at the time of this blurb Amazon still sold it used for $59.99. The camera pictured here must have went 11 meters under water because it is full of salt. For this reason it is listed in POOR condition and worth $.50 for parts in 2016.

Canon: Canon AE-1 camera  Canon: Canon AE-11976-1984 201920.00The Canon AE-1 is a 35 mm single-lens reflex (SLR) film camera for use with interchangeable lenses. It was manufactured by Canon Camera K. K. (today Canon Incorporated) in Japan from April 1976 to 1984. It uses an electronically controlled, electromagnet horizontal cloth focal plane shutter, with a speed range of 2 to 1/1000 second plus Bulb and flash X-sync of 1/60th second. The camera body is 87 mm tall, 14mm wide, and 48 mm deep; it weighs 590 g. Most are black with chrome trim, but some are all black.
The AE-1 is a historically significant SLR, both because it was the first microprocessor-equipped SLR and because of its sales. Backed by a major advertising campaign, the AE-1 sold over one million units, which made it an unprecedented success in the SLR market.
The AE-1 has a Canon FD breech-lock lens mount and accepts any FD or New FD (FDn) lens. It is not compatible with Canon's later Canon EF lens mount, though adapters made by independent manufacturers can be found. Original FD lenses, introduced in 1971, did not rotate in the mounting process; instead, a locking ring at the base was turned to attach the lens. This was often criticized as being slower than the bayonet mounts of competing cameras. The counter argument, though, was that as the lens/body mating surfaces did not rotate, there was no wear that could affect the critical distance from lens to film plane. In 1979, Canon introduced the New FD series of lenses that rotate the whole outer lens barrel to lock. The inner lens barrel remained stationary, and thus the signal levers and pins still did not rotate. During the late 1970s, there were over 50 Canon FD lenses available for purchase. They ranged from a Fisheye FD 15 mm f/2.8 SSC to a FD 800 mm f/5.6 SSC, plus special purpose lenses like a 7.5mm circular fisheye, and a 35mm Tilt & Shift lens. The AE-1 pictured above is in good working condition and the camera, flash unit, plus lens is worth $45.00 in 2019.

Canon: Canon T50 (Canon T5) camera  Canon: Canon T50 (Canon T5)1983 201815.00In the early 1980s, the SLR still dominated and metering systems diversified as camera makers competed fiercely to offer the better camera. The confusion may have turned off buyers as more people began to avoid SLRs. In 1981, 35mm SLR production peaked at 7.67 million units. Two years later, this amount shrank by more than 30 percent to 5.37 million units. Amid such market conditions, the Canon T50 was introduced as a wave-of-the-future 35mm SLR camera. It was the first T-series camera. The camera was designed to respond to the user automatically. It was easy to use and anybody could take pictures with it. It had a power winder giving a continuous shooting rate of 1.4 frames per second, as well as an advanced auto-exposure mode and TTL program AE. In 1983 when it was introduced, the T50 won the Good Design Award from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry. The T50 did not have power rewind, relying on a manual crank. The camera's electric systems were powered by two AA batteries in the grip, which gave enough power to shoot 75 24-exposure rolls, or 50 36-exposure rolls. The T50 (and subsequent T series models) used a vertically travelling metal blade shutter which allowed for faster shutter speeds and higher flash X-sync speeds. The camera came with a FD 50mm f/1.8 lens and Canon made many lenses available to fit the Canon FD lens mount. The camera pictured above is in Poor condition and worth $3.00 for parts but has a $30.00 lens in 2018.
Canon: Canon T70 camera  Canon: Canon T701984  20165.00The Canon T70 was a 35mm FD-mount single-lens reflex camera introduced in April 1984 as the second in Canon's T series. The T70 started with the concepts explored in 1983's T50, took them further, and applied them to a more sophisticated camera. While the Program AE-only T50 was intended as a beginner's camera, the T70 gave the photographer a lot more control over the camera's operation while keeping the T-series philosophy of simplicity in control and operation intact. All film transport on the T70 was powered—loading, advance and rewind. The continuous shooting rate, at 0.7 frames per second, was slower than rival motor drives, but the drive was nonetheless faster than most people could manually wind. To load the camera, the photographer simply had to pull the film leader out to an orange mark and close the back—the camera did the rest, loading the leader onto the spool, and advancing to the first frame automatically. All powered camera functions drew on two AA batteries in the grip. A built-in lithium battery (BR-1225 or CR-1220) was used to store user settings; the batteries lasted for about five years, and had to be replaced by a technician, since replacing them required partial dismantling of the camera body. The T70 used an LCD mounted on the top of the right-hand side of the camera as a major component of its user interface. Two buttons above the display labelled 'UP' and 'DOWN' adjusted the selected parameter and the results were shown on the LCD. Buttons on the left-hand top of the camera selected the parameter to be modified. The T70 included two different through-the-lens metering methods; both used a silicon photocell housed above the viewfinder eyepiece. Center-weighted average metering was the standard metering method, averaging over the whole frame with a slight preference towards the center of the frame, where the main subject is most likely to be. With strongly backlit scenes, or ones where the subject is spotlit against a dark background, center-weighted averaging produces underexposure or overexposure, respectively. For such situations, the T70 also supported selective area metering, which metered only the center 11% of the frame. The metering mode was selected by a sliding switch on the top left-hand side of the camera (from the photographer's perspective). This switch also selected self-timer mode and had a Lock position. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2016. It has a Canon FD 28-55mm f3.5-4.5 lens worth $35.00 for a total of $60.00. (Info from Wikipedia)

Canon: Canon TLb camera  Canon: Canon TLb1974-1976 201722.00The Canon TLb is a 35 mm single-lens reflex camera introduced in the Americas by Canon in September 1974 and discontinued in 1976. It features a Canon FD lens mount, and is also compatible with Canon's earlier FL-mount lenses in stop-down metering mode. The TLb was a cheaper version of the Canon FTb for the export market, as was the slightly later TX. Compared to the TX, the hot shoe was omitted, although the camera included a PC terminal for flash sync and with a maximum shutter speed of 1/500s in place of the FTb's 1/1000s. It has TTL metering using a CdS cell, powered by a 1.35V HD mercury battery. The TLb was later (April 1976) sold in Japan. The shutter is a two-axis, horizontal-travel focal-plane shutter with cloth curtains. The speeds are X, B, 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500 of a second with no self-timer. The film speed range is ISO 25 to 2000 and film frame counter ends at 40. The camera was known as the Canon TLb in America, Japan, Europe, Asia, and Oceania. The camera also has a fold down rewind crank handle that when pulled up releases the back cover, thumb lever single action film advance, fixed eye-level pentaprism viewfinder, rewind release button, and two hard points for a strap. This camera has a Kiron Macro 70-210mm f/4.5 manual focus lens with a minimum aperture of f/32 with 6 blades. This zoom lens was produced for all major SLR camera brands and in fine condition worth $25.00. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $45.00 for a total of $70.00 in 2017.
Canon: Canon TX camera  Canon: Canon TX1975-1979 201115.00The Canon TX is a manual focus SLR produced by Canon, Inc. between 1975 and 1979. It was an export only model (i.e., not sold in Japan) and was basically a stripped down Canon FTb. It had no self-timer (the lever that looks like a self-timer is the depth-of-field preview lever). It also had center-weighted metering instead of partial, and shutter speeds of bulb plus 1 second to 1/500 of a second with a horizontal travel cloth focal plane shutter. It features a Canon FD lens mount and is also compatible with Canon's earlier FL-mount lenses in stop-down metering mode. The TX has a hot shoe for flash and a socket for accessories in the front. The match-needle metering is precise and powered by a V625u Alkaline battery or equivalent (625A, Px-625A, Px13, A625, Lr9). Because it is all-manual, it makes a perfect camera for a budding photographer. The match-needle helps you choose the correct aperture and shutter speed. The canon TX was also sold in the US as the Bell & Howell FD35. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.

Canon: Canonet 28 Bell & Howell camera  Canon: Canonet 28 Bell & Howell1968  201610.00The original Canon Canonet 28 viewfinder camera was launched in 1968. The lens is a fixed 40mm f/2.8 Canon lens. It has fully programmed auto exposure with shutter speeds from 1/30 to 1/600 (shown by the meter's needle in the viewfinder), and manual control of f-stops for flash (f2.8-f16). The film speed range for auto exposure is from 25 to 400 ASA. It uses a Copal leaf shutter and has a coupled rangefinder. It was made in Taiwan. The Bell & Howell Canonet 28 is more like the original Canonet launched in 1961. It has a flash socket but no hot shoe but has a right thumb film advance lever like the later models. This camera was made in Japan by Canon and has a Seikosha-L shutter. It was capable of using film from 10 to 200 ASA and it too used a Canon SE 40mm f2.8 lens. The year made was somewhere between 1961 and 1962. It also has a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, 1/30 to 1/250 of a second shutter, 3 feet to infinity focus range, easy load film method, rewind slid switch, fold down rewind crank that releases the film when pulled up, pull down back cover release, optical viewfinder with meter readings inside, and a hard point for a carry strap.

Canon: Canonet Junior camera  Canon: Canonet Junior1963 20193.00The Canonet Junior is a 35mm viewfinder camera with programmed automatic exposure controlling the shutter and aperture. It was made in Japan by Canon and introduced in 1963. A sibling of the Canonet, this camera was conceived for compactness and operation ease. The shutter speed and aperture were set automatically, making it easy to use by anybody. The zone focusing system divided subject distances into close, medium, and far with icons. Exposure was set automatically by the EE (Electric Eye) program. The film advance used a sprocket less spool. This made the camera 10 mm less wide and 60 g lighter than the Canonet. The lens is a Canon SE 40mm/f2.8 (4 elements, 3 groups). The shutter is a Seikosha-L programmed with speeds of 1/30 to 1/250 of a second and B. The camera has X-sync flash with a PC socket and metering by a Selenium cell; EV 7-17 (100ASA). The film speed range is ISO 10 to 200 and the original price in 1963 was about $108.00 (11800 yen). The camera also has a single action frame advance, cold shoe, flash socket in the front, rewind pop-up lever plus release button, plunger socket on the top of the shutter release, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket on the bottom. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $2.00 for parts in 2019.

Canon: Dial 35 II camera  Canon: Dial 35 II1968-1971 201715.00The eye-catching Dial 35 (1963 to 1967) and Dial 35-2 (1968 to 1971) had unique user-appeal and makes a good conversation piece. Half-frame cameras were in vogue in the early-to-mid 1960’s and were then predicted to supersede full-frame 35mm. Canon’s imaginative design offered motorized film transport and landscape format orientation as well as automatic exposure. But the Dial 35’s landmark features were more for show than go. The telephone-style ‘dial’ rotated when either the shutter speed (1/30 of a second to 1/250 of a second) or the film speed was set by the user, positioning one or other dial ‘lens’ (each had a different internal aperture) over the CDS cell. These adjustments were in full-stop increments only, intermediate film speed settings could not be made. Although the dial looked intriguing it was impractical. The ASA markings were too vague and obscure. Films between ‘ranges’ - 40, 100, 180 or 320 ASA – would have to have been half a stop over- or under-exposed throughout. The 49mm filter mount allowed filters to cover the whole dial and meter cell. Aperture setting was automatic, f-stops shown in the bright-frame viewfinder, with a manual override facility. The 28mm, 5-element f2.8 lens gave a useful field of view equivalent to 40mm on full-frame. Depth of field was thought sufficient for zone-focusing only, which was effected with a lever above the lens barrel, the zone being indicated in the viewfinder. The clockwork motor, which also rewound the film, was wound up by turning the cylindrical handle, grip provided by a ribbed rubber surround. An accessory shoe was inset at the side of the body. A tripod and cable-release sockets were provided, but no “B” shutter setting. The Dial 35, with its quality lens and reliable automatic exposure produced good results. The film transport mechanism is a weak point, and examples still in working order are unusual. The necessity of motor wind in a snapshot camera is debatable, it did lead to more shots being taken, an indirect benefit perhaps with half-frame, which needed up to 75 exposures to finish up a roll of film. The Dial 35-2 camera had an improved clockwork motor and a hot-shoe and was marketed in the USA as a Bell and Howell Dial 35 (1967 to 1972). The camera pictured here is in Poor condition because the shutter does not work. For this reason it is worth $3.00 for parts in 2017.
Canon: ELPH LT (Ixus M-1 / IXY 210) camera  Canon: ELPH LT (Ixus M-1 / IXY 210)1998  20205.00Equipped with a 23mm f/4.8 focal length lens that features a triplet lens design of 3 lenses in 3 groups (equivalent to 29mm on 35mm-format cameras). The ELPH LT's active autofocus system is fast and accurate, providing an effective focusing range as close as 2 feet (.6 meter) to infinity (3.3 feet (1 Meter) to infinity when the flash is set to OFF).

Canon: EOS 300 (EOS Rebel 2000 / EOS Kiss III) camera  Canon: EOS 300 (EOS Rebel 2000 / EOS Kiss III)1999  201615.00The Canon EOS 300 (EOS Kiss III in Japan, EOS Rebel 2000 in North America) is a consumer-level 35mm single-lens reflex camera, produced by Canon of Japan from April 1999 until September 2002 as part of their EOS system. Designed under the supervision of Yasuhiro Morishita, the camera was intended as a replacement for the Canon EOS 500N. The camera was a success for Canon, selling exceedingly well and dominating its market sector until it was replaced by the EOS 300V (Rebel Ti, Kiss 5). Canon EOS 300 won European Imaging and Sound Association Award 1999-2000. Like other low-priced SLRs of the time, the EOS 300 used a Penta mirror viewfinder instead of a pentaprism, and had a polycarbonate body.

Canon: EOS 620 camera  Canon: EOS 6201987  20165.00The EOS 620, marketed in May, 1987 - was introduced barely a few months after the debut of the Canon EOS 650 in March, 1987. Unlike the 650, the 620 was promoted as a camera with a higher technical specification; its shutter was designed to meet the needs of the mid- to top-level amateur, with the camera primarily aimed to assist both levels of photographers. Basically, it carries more technical specifications than the entry level EOS650. Its sales targets were mid-level and advanced amateur photographers but Canon did use the EOS 620 as a promotional tool to entice professional photographers at major sporting events in trying out the EOS System, an effort that went well until the 1988 Summer Olympics Games in Seoul. The EOS 620 was replaced two years after introduction in 1989 with the EOS 630 camera. Despite its relatively short appearance (for an analog SLR), the EOS 620 does have followers in the used market for a while as it has a higher sync speed of 1/250 second, a stop faster than what the EOS 630 has! Incidentally, the Canon EOS 620 was also the first EOS camera model that employed the Programmed Shift Function and an integrated Auto-Bracketing Control. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2016.
Canon: EOS 750 camera  Canon: EOS 7501988  20165.00The EOS 750 and EOS 750QD are autofocus SLRs for 35mm film introduced by Canon in 1988 and discontinued in 1990. The QD version is able to imprint dates through 2019 onto the film. Both 750's were a very simplified EOS models, primarily meant to use programmed auto exposure, with no manual alternative. Film handling is motorized, and the camera requires a 6-volt lithium 2CR5 battery to operate. (The date back requires its own separate CR2025 "coin" type battery.) A special "depth of field" metering mode is coupled with the (single) autofocus sensor: By half-pressing on the shutter release, the photographer selects two areas of the scene which are both meant to be in focus. The camera then determines the optimum focus distance, and stops down the lens to a sufficiently small aperture to achieve this. There's an elegant simplicity to the operation of this entry EOS model; the photographer simply sets the selector dial and presses the shutter release. The smooth EOS contours fit the camera snugly in the hand, with the selector dial and shutter release right at the fingertips for responsive operation. Along with the EOS 850, both series has an innovative pre-wind film advance mode in which all of the film was wound forward when the camera was loaded and then rewound back into the cassette one frame at a time as the photos are taken. The camera was replaced with Canon EOS 700 in 1990. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2016.

Canon: Pellix QL camera  Canon: Pellix QL1966-1970 20217.00The Canon Pellix is an unusual 35 mm SLR camera. Introduced in 1965, it was Canon\'s first 35 mm focal-plane shutter SLR camera with through-the-lens metering. The moving mirror normally used in an SLR camera is replaced with a fixed, semitransparent pellicle mirror. This divides the light from the lens, about two-thirds passing through the pellicle to reach the film, and the rest being reflected to the viewfinder. This arrangement has several advantages in comparison to a conventional SLR camera: A simpler mechanism, quieter operation (without the sound of the mirror mechanism), less inertial motion of the camera when the shutter is released, the viewfinder does not black out during exposure and the stationary mirror allows the use of a lens whose rear elements protrude further into the camera body. Canon made the compact Tessar-type FLP 38 mm f/2.8 lens exclusively for use on the Pellix camera. The mirror in the Pellix, being permanently in place, reduces the amount of light available to make the image on the film. To compensate for this, another standard lens for the Pellix is the fast Canon FL 58 mm f/1.2 with automatic aperture diaphragm operation; the camera was also available with the 50 mm f/1.4 (again, an FL lens, not the FD lens). The shutter gives a normal range of speeds from 1 second to 1/1000 of a second, plus \'B\'. A year after its introduction, the camera was equipped with the QL (Quick Load) feature, making film loading much easier, announced by a small QL badge on the front of the body (The Canon Camera Museum and Collectibled lists this as a separate model, the Pellix QL released in 1966); in addition to the QL feature, the updated model also has a lock on the stop-down lever, and could accept a meter booster device for use in low light. Other features are a flash port, utility mounting point, timer, side opening battery compartment, ASA from 25 to 1600, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod mount. In 1966 the Pellix QL camera body with the FL 50mm f/1.2 cost 72,800 yen or about $690.00 and with the FL 50mm f/1.4 II cost 60,800 yen or about $575.00. The all black camera body cost 1000 Yen or about $10.00 more for the Pellix and Pellix QL. The Pellix type camera is considered collectible because of its unusual features, and examples are sold even when unusable. Most of this information was gleaned from Camera-wiki.org, Collectiblend, and the Canon Camera Museum on line. The camera pictured here is in good condition with worn esthetics and is worth about $20.00 in 2021.

The film advance is a thumb slid bar on the bottom for the right hand. The model 108 camera came in black, blue, green, and a vivid pink. The 110 cartridge was introduced by Kodak in 1972 with Kodak Pocket Instamatic cameras. The new pocket-sized cameras became immediately popular, and soon displaced competing subminiature cameras, such as the Minolta 16 series, from the market. The 110 film width is 16 mm and a four frame strip measures 111 mm. Kodak stopped 110 production in 1994 and Fujifilm stopped manufacturing 110 in September 2009. Lomography re-commenced 110 film production in 2011 and still produces the film today. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and is worth $5.00 in 2020.

Continental: EF135 camera  Continental: EF135c1970s  20168.00The camera was produced during the 1970’s. It uses a Conar f4 38mm lens with two ASA settings of 100 and 400 that change the aperture from f11 to f22. The camera comes with a built in flash, flash on/off switch, a flash ready lamp, a flash off LED next to the optical viewfinder, frame counter, rewind release button, fold down rewind crank that opens the film compartment when pull up completely, a right thumb film advance wheel, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The camera uses two AA batteries to power the flash and will work without batteries. It is a mostly plastic 35mm camera that feels good in your hands due to the weights added and also looks the part from 3 feet away. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
Continental: Electroflash 555 S camera  Continental: Electroflash 555 Sc1970-1975  20172.00The Continental Electroflash 555-S is a 110 film cartridge pocket camera. As the name suggests, it has a built-in flash and the S after 555 stands for sensor. There is an Electroflash 555, which lacks the sensor and a slide switch selector on the top depicting a clouded sun plus just the sun as a second choice with numbers (80/125 plus 400) on the switch itself. This is for selecting the ASA, either 80 to 100 ASA or 400 ASA. A red LED in the viewfinder lets you know if you have enough light, or to turn on the flash and this LED is controlled via the sensor. Both cameras require two "AA" Alkaline Batteries plus on both the shutter is cocked by the perforations in the film, so the camera will not accept non-perforated reloads. Both cameras also have an on/off switch on top for the flash, a flash ready light, film observation window in the back that also is used as the frame counter, optical viewfinder, ¼” twenty thread tripod mount on the bottom of the camera, right thumb film advance slide lever, and a handy carry strap attach point. The sensor opening is between the lens and viewfinder on the 555-S model and “SENSOR” is printed directly under it. On the 555, in the same spot, is printed “OPTICAL LENS 1:8”. The shutter on both is a strange configuration consisting of a flapping door between the lens and the film. The lens is a single element meniscus so don't expect great results. This camera is not a very sophisticated imaging machine, however, it is adaptable to a pretty wide variety of photographic situations. A step up from a simple point and shoot but not a very big step. The 555 version was released early in 1970 then came the 555-S later that same year and Continental discontinued manufacturing both in 1975.
Coronet Camera: 3-D camera  Coronet Camera: 3-Dc1953  201622.00The Coronet 3D camera was manufactured by the Coronet Camera Company in circa 1954. A uniquely designed 3D camera advertised as two cameras in one, able to take stereoscopic pics or ordinary snap shot prints on standard number 127 roll film. It was constructed of plastic Bakelite with a built-in binocular viewer. The camera was made without and with a synchronized flash feature. A few variations in the body style was also made, including an early ribbed black body, a smooth black body and a speckled color body. This camera would take 4 stereo pair exposures, or a lever on the side allowed for blocking out the no. 1 lens and taking 8 single non-stereo exposures. The non-flash model was priced at $5.40 and the Synchronized flash model was priced at $5.80. The camera has two, meniscus fixed focus lenses, Single-blade guillotine shutter (spring powered) with a capping blade for the number one lens, and the format is 4, 42 x 50 mm exposures on 127 roll-film in consecutive stereo pairs. Film advance indicated by a round red window on the back cover. When taking stereo pairs the film is advanced until an odd number shows in the red window (1, 3, 5, and 7). When taking eight single exposures on a roll of film you would adjust the blanking plate over the number 1 lens. The film is advanced to show even and odd numbers in the red window starting with 1 and ending with 8. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $60.00 in 2016.

Craftex Products: Hollywood Reflex Sportsman camera  Craftex Products: Hollywood Reflex Sportsmanc1947  201616.00Manufactured in USA from 1947 until 1950. It is a tall, unadorned metal box twin lens reflex camera. It takes 620 film and inside the camera it suggests Ansco Plenachrome PB-20 or Eastman Verichrome 620 for best results. This same camera had other variants like the Hollywood Reflex A, B, C, D, and E plus the Sightseer and Sportsman. These cameras were pseudo TLR with no connection or gearing between the lens focus mechanics and the viewfinder lens. You have to guess at the distance and set the focus range to what seemed correct. Only the Hollywood Reflex Model E was a true TLR with the gearing required and is the standout. The sportsman II has three shutter settings of 1/50 of a second, 1/150 of a second, and Time. The camera also has two aperture settings of f8 plus f16, a 80mm Achromat main lens, plunger shutter attach point, flash two conductor attach point, red window frame observation window in the back cover, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, large brilliant viewfinder under a fold down cage on top, line of sight viewfinder within the fold down cage, and a right hand film advance wheel. The serial number for this camera is 804195. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.

Dacora Dangelmaier: Digna camera  Dacora Dangelmaier: Digna1954  201712.00The Dacora Digna is a medium format 120 film fixed-lens viewfinder camera introduced by Dacora-Kamerawerk in 1954 to 1959. There are several variants of the Digna with different lenses ranging from the relatively high end Enna Correlar 80mm f/2.9 to more basic offerings like my example’s Dacora 80mm f/7.7 Achromat. The Digna was also sold as the Ilford Sporti in the British market. The Digna employs a spring-loaded telescoping lens which can be extended by rotating the lens barrel counterclockwise. Once released, the lens’ focus can be adjusted by rotating the ring immediately surrounding the front element. Two toggles on either side of the front element choose between two shutter speeds (B for Bulb and I for instant) and two apertures (f/8 and f/11). A flash sync socket is located at six o’clock on the front of the lens barrel. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.

Daiichi Kogaku: Zenobia camera  Daiichi Kogaku: Zenobiac1949  201627.00The Zenobia (ゼノビア) is a series of Japanese 4.5×6 folders, successors to the Waltax. They were made from 1952 to 1957 by Daiichi Kōgaku, later Zenobia Kōgaku; and they were distributed by Hattori Tokei-ten at least until 1955. All the Zenobia models have a body copied from the Ikonta A and inherited from the Waltax. Two companies sold modified and rebadged Zenobia cameras: Union Kōgaku offered the Union Semi, also called Union C-II, in 1953–4 and Walz the Walcon or Walcon Semi in 1954–5. In both cases the lens and shutter are different and there are other minor changes. The Zenobia C and Zenobia P are continuations of the Waltax Senior, without double-exposure prevention. According to Kokusan kamera no rekishi, both appear in the Japanese camera announcements column of the January 1952 issue of Asahi Camera. The C has a synchronized D.O.C.–Rapid shutter with B, 1–500 speeds, the P I has a synchronized NKS shutter with B, 1–200 speeds and the P II is the same as the P I with a self-timer. The D.O.C.-Rapid is a copy of the Compur and the NKS is a copy of the Prontor, so it is possible that "C" stands for Compur and "P" for Prontor, but this is only a guess. It is the only appearance of the Zenobia P mentioned by Kokusan kamera no rekishi. A Zenobia with NKK shutter to 1/200 has been reported to exist, but no picture has been observed yet. Shortly afterwards in 1952, the Zenobia C I and C II were advertised together. They are explicitly mentioned as an improvement of the Waltax. The lens is a four-element Tessar-type coated Hesper 75mm f/3.5. (Many people seem to believe that the Hesper has three elements and the later Neo-Hesper four, but the advertisements clearly state otherwise.) The C I is the new name of the C and it is offered for ¥14,000[3] with a D.O.C.-Rapid B, 1–500 shutter (advertised as a Compur-Rapid copy), synchronized with an ASA bayonet connector. The C II is offered for ¥15,000 with a Seikosha-Rapid shutter having similar specifications. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $50.00 in 2016.

DIANA: Valiant Flash camera  DIANA: Valiant Flashc1960s  20165.00The Valiant Flash camera is a so-called "toy camera" that originated in the 1960s produced by the Great Wall Plastic Co. in China. This is a pure Diana-F "re-badged" for the name Valiant. Uses 120 roll and this camera is in the original box, with the original manual. The Diana F clone, was produced under many names for different markets. Some were sold as promotional items (there is a Readers Digest version, for example). Most all Diana’s use 120 film but some versions of the camera take 127 or 620 film. The lens is plastic with some anomalies that show up in photographs. A roll of 120 film will give you 16 frames. Focusing is done by twisting the lens to 3 zones, 4-6ft, 6-12ft, or 12ft to infinity. There are several variations in top-plate and lens-barrel style; some have fake light-meter windows and a few have flash sync. Diana’s have recently (in c.2007) become very popular for the effects their poor lens and build quality can impart to a photograph - so popular that it is now again possible to buy them new, and also possible to pay as much for a Diana as for a cheap -or even a mid-range - digital camera! Some popular Diana clone names: Acme, Anny, Altic, Arrow, Arrow Flash, Asiana, Avis, Banier, Banner, Barri-Shelli, Bergère- de France, Binaflex, Black Bird, Candy, Chase, Clicker, Codeg, Colorflash Deluxe, Debonair, Debro, Debutante, Diana, Diana+ / Diana Plus, Diana Deluxe, Diana F, Diana F+, Diana Mini, Dionne F2, Dories, Eikow, Flocon RF 222, Future Scientist Flash, Gray Line, Harrow, Hi-Flash, Hong Meow, Justen, Lina, Lina S, Mark L, MegoMatic, Merit, Mirage, Panax, Photon 120, Pioneer, Pokey, Raleigh, Rand, Reader's Digest, Reliance, Rosko, Rover, Samtoy, See, Shakey's, Sinomax, Stellar, Stellar Flash, Tina, Traceflex, Tru-View, Valiant, Windsor, Zip, and Zodiac.

Earl Products: Scenex camera  Earl Products: Scenexc1950 20185.00The Scenex camera is the same as Cub and the Snappy. They measure 3 1/8 inches wide, 2 inches deep, and 2 inches high. They are little miniature or subminiature novelty cameras. The Scenex candid camera was marketed in 1950 by Earl Products Co, for 25x25mm exposures on 828 film. A small metal mask supports the film frame in the exposure compartment in an arched position. This mask is usually missing, and the camera would appear to take a larger image, but the film would not travel properly or be in focus. The camera was formally marketed in the 1940’s under the Cub name by American Advertising and Research Co. and both Cub plus the Scenex were used for premiums by various companies. The Scenex was sold for 15 Cent to customers who also bought a carton of any Pepsodent product. The Snappy is the same camera as the Cub and Scenex, but made in England and uses standard S882 film. The Scenex had a white winding knob or a metal winder knob. The Snappy pocket size camera also has a white winding knob but the Cub’s knob was light red. A paper that came with the Scenex Candid camera reads: (Use Kodak 828 film / Note if your dealer does not stock 828 Film, advise us. Earl Products Co. 701 N. Sangamon ST. Chicago 22, ILL. / A SUGGESTION When / you have film developed ask for OVERSIZE PRINTS). The camera pictured here is missing the metal frame mask, has a bent rear cover with a large gap, and the shutter lever is very hard to activate but the shutter does work as intended. For this reason the camera is listed in Poor condition and worth $2.00 in 2018.

FED: FED 3 (Type b) (Revue 3) camera  FED: FED 3 (Type b) (Revue 3)1966-1976  201618.00The FED 3 is a Ukrainian rangefinder camera inspired by classic Leicas. Over two million were produced from 1961 to 1979. It takes 35mm film. The FED 3 is an evolution of the FED 2 and the dimensions of the two bodies are identical. The top deck is modified because the FED 3 has to have a shorter rangefinder base to make room for the slow-speed mechanism. Shutter speeds are 1 sec, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15, 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500s and "B". In common with many Soviet-era cameras, the shutter must be cocked before the speed is altered.
There are four definable models in the FED 3 series.
FED 3a was introduced in 1961. It retained most of the FED 2 features, including the mushroom-shaped advance knob. The rewind knob is larger. The diopter is no longer adjusted by a lever but is adjusted by the ring over the viewfinder.
FED 3b was introduced in 1963. It has a film advance lever and a flat top deck. It had no strap lugs, but an ever-ready case was originally available. The FED 3b is usually fitted with an Industar 26M or Industar 61 lens. These are interchangeable with other lenses with an M39 mount, but are not 100% compatible with the Leica standard. The camera pictured here is in fine condition with the Industar 31mm lens and worth $35.00 in 2016.
FED 3L was introduced along with the 3b in 1963, and has a body like the 3a but a different shutter speed knob. The knob on a 3L resembles the ones on the FED 3b; the speeds are engraved on a plate beneath the knob instead of on the knob itself. The shutter speed plate is clipped where the top deck steps down. Usually fitted with an Industar 61 lens.
FED 3L/D is a FED 3L with a multi-coated Industar 61 L/D containing Lanthane.
Federal: Fed-Flash camera  Federal: Fed-Flashc1947 201910.00This Bakelite camera was introduced circa 1947 and uses 127 roll films with eight 4x6.5cm exposures. The camera originally cost $9.95, case $3.95, and flash unit sold for $4.51. At the end of production in 1956 the entire outfit sold for $4.95. The camera was made by the Federal Manufacturing & Engineering Corporation of Brooklyn, New York, USA. It features a large detachable flash unit that accepted No. 5 bayonet base flash-bulbs, a two connector hot shoe, a red round window in the back cover for frame count, a built-in view optical finder, film advance knob, larg shutter release button, and a permanent fixed carry strap. It is fitted with a dual-element meniscus fixed focus, 64 mm Ultrafed lens, and a single speed Type A Flash-Matic 1/30 of a second Shutter for both daylight and flash photographs. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.

Fisher-Price: Fisher-Price Perfect Shot camera  Fisher-Price: Fisher-Price Perfect Shot1994-1997 20193.00Fisher Price tends to make some of the best all-around cameras for kids. These cameras are made to withstand the abuse only a five-year-old can render. They're sturdy, they've got a built-in flash and, the more modern variety has film compartments that are extremely unlikely to unexpectedly pop open. They're easy to use. Both Perfect Shot cameras have a good sized handle on both sides. This, coupled with the fact that the camera has some slight heft to it, make it unlikely there will be blur due to "camera shake". The straps on these cameras are quite durable and well attached. With the 110 camera, the five-year-old must remember to turn the flash on and off. In the case of the 35mm Fisher-Price Perfect Shot camera, the five-year-old must only remember to turn the flash on. This camera automatically turns the flash off after a certain period of inactivity. The blue with yellow trim camera uses 110 film cartridges. The red, black, plus yellow lens ring and shutter button camera is a 35mm camera. The 35mm also came in Yellow, blue, and red lens ring plus shutter button. Other differences were the film advance push bar on the 110 cartridge version and a right thumb wheel advance on the 35mm. The 35mm came with a plastic key called “Parent Key” for the film compartment and a rewind crank on the bottom. Both cameras used two AA batteries to power the flash unit. The 110 version was released in 1994 and discontinued in 1997. The 35mm version was released in 2000 and discontinued in 2006. Fisher Price still releases kids cameras that are sturdy, easy to use, and hold but today they are digital. The camera pictured here is a Perfect Shot 110 plus in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.

Focal: Focal Flip 11 camera  Focal: Focal Flip 111975-1978 20155.00Kmart is a chain of discount stores based in the United States and founded in 1962. They are known to use the brand name Focal for their photographic products. The cameras and accessories are typically rebranded products from major manufactures like Haking and Cosina. There was also a house brand Focal and cine films, which was early on and often manufactured by Ansco GAF but later changed to 3M Ferrania films. The Focal branding slowly disappeared in the 1990's, it was last seen on 35mm film. The Sears Holdings Corporation now owns the Kmart chain as of 2005 and have over 249,000 employees. The focal flip II was introduced in 1975 when the 110 cartridge format had 3 years under its belt. The frame size is 13 mm × 17 mm (0.51 in × 0.67 in), with one registration hole. The film is fully housed in a plastic cartridge, which also registers the image when the film is advanced. There is a continuous backing paper, and the frame number and film type are visible through a window at the rear of the cartridge. The flip 11 also has a window that takes advantage of that film cartridge window. Kodak introduced 110 film cartridges in 1972 and Kodak also produced Kodachrome 110 slide film until 1982 the same year they discontinued the film. In 2012 Lomography re-introduced slide film for 110 and Black and White Orca film at 100 ISO speed. The slide film however, is ASA 200 so a ND filter has to be used over the lens or the exposure compensation dial has to be used where available. The Focal flip II is one of the smallest fully enclosed 110 cameras ever made and was named for the Flip Flash Bar that it employed. These also are still available. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2015.
Focal: PC620 camera  Focal: PC6201985 20091.00The Focal PC620 is a focus free fully automatic camera introduced in 1985. It has auto load, auto rewind, built in flash, flash ready LED, built in lens cover, frame counter, and a handy carry strap. The camera was assembled in China and the parts were made in Taiwan. The camera pictured above unfortunately had the batteries left in much to long and they destroyed the battery compartment contacts. This camera is for parts only and worth about $1.00 in 2016.
Focal: Tele Focal camera  Focal: Tele Focal1977  20165.00The Focal Tele Focal uses 110 cartridge film plus for indoor photography it used disposable flip-flash and had a suggested retail price of $23.88. It was made in Japan, distributed by Kmart in the US, and introduced in 1977. The tele Focal included both "normal" and "tele" modes with an f11 42 or 25mm lenses. A selector slide switch slid a lens in front of the 25mm lens to combine for 42mm. The slide switch also cropped the viewfinder but did not change its optics. The camera also has a view window in the back for frame count, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, right thumb slide film advance, 1/60 of a second fixed shutter, flipflash socket, and a handy carry strap. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.

There was also a house brand Focal and cine films, which early on was usually manufactured by Ansco GAF but later changed to 3M Ferrania films. The Focal branding slowly disappeared in the 1990's, it was last seen on 35mm film. The chain acquired Sears in 2005 and both still sell products today.

Ginfax: Coca Cola Can camera  Ginfax: Coca Cola Canc1998 201915.00Manufactured about 1998 by Ginfax Development Ltd. of Hong Kong. Collapsed, it looks like a can of Coca Cola. Opened up, it’s a 35mm point-n-shoot camera! It has a built in flash that runs from a single AA battery kept in a compartment in the bottom of the can camera. The top of the can is used to wind and rewind the film—the rewind latch is the pull top and releases the film to be rewound. The camera was originally packaged with a 24 exposure roll of Kodak 400 Max film. Item # 861274 Coca Cola Can Camera new sold for $19.99 and came with an Ansco 3 Year limited warranty. Hong Kong business bought the rights to the Ansco name in the 1990s and this accounts for the use of the name in the 3 year warranty information on the back of the packaging for the cameras.
Ginfax Development Ltd. is a producer of electronic gadgets and optical goods including novelty toy cameras, single-use cameras, and even simple digicams. It was founded in 1990 in Hong Kong and has factories in Dong Guan and Kai Ping, China. Items from Ginfax seem to have been marketed under the British brand Zeon Tech for electronic gifts. Among the items produced were 35mm film cameras in the shape of beer cans with logos for Kirin, Carlsberg, Heineken, Budweiser, Baltika (USSR). Also Cigarette box camera, lighter camera, juice box camera, plus soccer ball camera, and soda can cameras including Fanta, Pepsi, 7up, Mello Yello, plus Coca Cola. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2020.
GOMZ: Lubitel camera  GOMZ: Lubitelc1949-1956 201530.00The Lubitel was produced by the Gomz factory (GOMZ stands for Gosularstvennyi Optiko-Mekhanicheskii Zavod (State Optical-Mechanical Factory). Founded in 1932 near Leningrad (now St. Petersburg)) from 1949 to 1956 and Over one million units were constructed. The shutter speeds range from B, 1/19, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/200 and no self-timer. The main lens is a 75/4.5 (coated) and the viewfinder lens is a 60/2.8. For taking pictures at eye level (shots have then more natural perspective) the frame viewfinder is used. This is more convenient when there is experience in estimating distances by eye and in correct focusing according to distance scale. This camera is the successor to the Komsomolets (1946-1950) with one major innovation that was inspired by the 1938 Voightlander Brilliant it copied, a coupled gearing system to connect the main lens and viewfinder lens, allowing each to be focused in sync. The main lens and viewing lens both opened up to a nice 'n' bright f/2.8 with a wider angle of view. The name 'Lubitel' roughly translates to a combination of ‘Hobbyist and Amateur.’ Like the Komsomolets, it was produced in Bakelite and a Chinese copy of this original Lubitel emerged in 1961 under the mysteriously hilarious name, 'Changle.' To be clear the Lubitel is a copy of the Voightlander Brilliant and the Changle is a copy of the Lubitel. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2015.
GOMZ: Lubitel 166 B (V) camera  GOMZ: Lubitel 166 B (V)c1980s 202035.00Gomz (1932-1965) (Gosularstvennyi Optiko-Mekhanicheskii Zavod - State Optical-Mechanical Factory) (LOMO (1965- today) Leningradskoe Optiko Mekhanichesko Obedinenie – Leningrad Optical-Mechanical Union) made this plastic-bodied Twin lens reflex medium format camera beginning circa 1980. It was a small revision to the 1976 Lubitel 166, adding a self-timer. Of its two lenses, the lower one, with the shutter, exposes the film, while the other serves as the viewfinder. The two lenses both screw in and out for focusing (rather than being mounted in a racking front-plate as in many TLR cameras); each lens has gear-teeth around the edge, and the two are meshed to couple their focus. There is a focus scale on the viewing lens that is marked 1.4m to infinity. Like the earlier Lubitel models, the 166B's viewfinder has a condenser lens rather than a ground-glass screen, with only a small central spot ground with a flip up lens for focusing using that spot. This (it is a design copied from the focusing model of the Voigtländer Brillant) requires some care in focusing, but gives a much brighter view for framing than would a full-frame ground-glass screen. The Lubitel 166B uses 120 roll film and exposes 6x6cm square images. Shutter speeds are from 1/15 to 1/250 of a second and a bulb setting; the manually loaded shutter is synchronized for flash, with a PC socket on the lens barrel, and a cold shoe on the left side of the camera. The lens is a coated 75 mm f/4.5 T-22 triplet lens, with aperture down to f/22, and the close-focus limit is at just over a meter. This accepts 40.5 mm threaded hood and filters. The camera was sold with a synthetic leather strap, a vinyl case, a push-fit lens cap and a cable release. Other features are an eye level viewfinder frame, a frame count red view window in the back cover with an internal cover that operated by a knob on the outside of the back cover, ASA/DIN dial on the side of the camera (not connected to any operation), and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $55.00 in 2020.
Graflex: Century 35 A camera  Graflex: Century 35 A1959 201815.00The 35A was built by Kowa Optical Works in Nagoya, Japan c1959. It's a range focusing camera with a top shutter speed of 1/300 of a second. The lever on the front requires two strokes to advance the film to the next frame and stops when in position. The camera usually uses a Prominar lens by Kowa and a Ceres Shutter. It has a very large size bright line viewfinder for its time, which has good back distance allowance for glasses users, and appears 100% match for the 45mm f/3.5 standard Prominar lens. The Century 35A also has the odd self-ejecting back with no hinge that lets the back be removed completely. It also has a frame counter that is manually set and counts down to zero, a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, an accessory mount but no synchronized flash port, a rewind release button, a rewind knob that pulls up to release the film cartridge, and double exposure protection by locking the shutter release after exposing a frame. The camera was focused by guessing the distance from 3 foot to infinity because it had no rangefinder is fitted. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2018.

Graflex: Ciro 35 camera  Graflex: Ciro 351950s 201515.00In 1949, Ciro Cameras purchased designs for the Cee-ay 35 camera. This 35 mm camera was produced by the Candid Camera Corporation of America. Though highly influential, the Cee-ay 35 was only in production for a matter of months before Ciro-flex purchased the design and remarketed it as the Ciro-35. Ciro Cameras and all of its models were sold on October 1, 1951 to Graflex Inc. The Ciro-35 and Ciro-flex models were continued for several years under the same name but identified as Graflex products. Eventually, Graflex rebranded the models to the Graflex 22, Ciro-flex, and the Graphic 35, Ciro-35. Therefore the years of production for the Graflex Ciro 35 are 1951-1953 though the Ciro 35 was produced from 1949-1953. This information was found on “The Ohio Historical Society” site and written by E. Higgins https://ohiohistory.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/ohios-camera/
This rangefinder camera had a unique sliding focus lever that had a pointer on one side of the lens and the lever on the other. The pointer scale was graduated from 3 foot to infinity and the mechanism was integrated with the rangefinder. The shutter was mad by Wllensak for Graflex and the camera has an f/3.5 50mm Rodenstock lens marked as a Graflex Graftar lens. Another interesting feature is the locking method for the film chamber. It is a large bar that turns from LOCK to OPEN and is easy to operate. On the inside cover of this Ciro 35 is the words “Ciro Cameras Inc, Delaware, Ohio”, to lend credence to the above paragraph. This camera pictured here is missing the mounting part of the hot shoe but I list the camera as good. The camera is worth $20.00 in 2015.

Gundlach: Korona (folding) camera  Gundlach: Korona (folding)c1920s  2009210.00The Korona Series III camera was manufactured by the Gundlach Optical Company in circa 1900. Designed as an improvement over the earlier models (except for the extended bellows) but with a reversible patent swing-back. It also can accommodate a special bed for use with wide angle lens which could be purchased separately and attached to this camera as an option. The camera was constructed of wood with a seal grain cover. It has Rack and pinion focus with a rising and falling wood front. The hardware is nickel plated and highly polished. Spring actuated ground glass focusing screen to accept Korona plate holders. A reversible brilliant finder and two tripod sockets. This one had a fold down cross hair view finder as you can see on top. In its original configuration it was fitted with an instantaneous symmetrical lens or a Turner-Reich lens housed in a model F automatic shutter. The camera was available in two sizes to take either 4 x 5 or 5 x 7. Price in 1902 was $22 and $27 respectively.
The company roots can be traced to 1879, when Ernst Gundlach and Lewis R. Sexton started working on optical goods manufacturing and trading. The Gundlach Optical Company name was registered in 1884 after Lewis died. In 1895 Ernst left the company, but it continued to bore his name. In 1896 Gundlach Optical acquired the Milburn Korona Company (founded in 1894). Later, in 1902, the company acquired another business - Manhattan Optical Company and the combined establishment was renamed to Gundlach-Manhattan Optical Company. The name was changed again several times: first to Gundlach Manufacturing Corporation, then to Seebold Invisible Camera Company, and finally to Dynamic Optics Inc., which closed its doors in 1972.
The camera pictured above has had the lens changed to a Kodak Kodamatic 170mm anasticmate lens with a serial number of 53635. The lens is younger than the body by about 14 years and is found on the Kodak Photographic Deluxe from 1916.
The Korona series 3, 4x5 camera, has a value of $150-$225 if it were to still have the original lens/shutter. Funny, but most of the time when a change is made to a camera it tends to decrease the value. However in this case the fact that the original lens/shutter has been exchanged is a good thing. According to McKeown's Camera Price Guide the original lenses were inferior and many photographers changed-out the lens for a better one. This has helped the value of these cameras, doubling the value. So the camera has a value of $300-$450 in 2014.

A big bulb flash was attachable on the camera top using the two plug-in flash sockets on either side of the viewfinder. The camera has a fixed-focus (approximately 24mm) lens that’s locked in at an aperture of f/11. The shutter is fixed at 1/60 seconds. This camera was also released as the Official Cub Scout Camera, Official Girl Scout Camera for Brownie Scouts (with red winder knob plus shutter button top), Herco Imperial (620 Snap Shot), Savoy Mark II (in light green plastic only) and the Roy Rogers and Trigger (620 Snap Shot Camera). The Herbert George Co. rarely missed a chance to appeal to a new market and by changing the faceplate, knob color, or body color they achieve just that. All aforementioned cameras were the same aside from the color variations and interchangeable faceplates. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $20.00 in 2019.
Herbert George: Roy Rogers & Trigger camera  Herbert George: Roy Rogers & Triggerc1950s 201912.00The Roy Rogers and trigger 620 snap Shot Camera was made by the Herbert George Company of Chicago Illinois in circa 1950. It was a simple box camera made of plastic Bakelite with a decorative metal faceplate depicting the famous television personality Roy Rogers and his trusted horse Trigger. It featured a built-in eye-level view finder, a removable synchronized flash unit, a fixed focus meniscus lens and a single speed snap shot shutter. It was capable of capturing twelve exposures, 2 1/4 x 2 ¼ (6x6cm) inch in size, on number 620 color or black and white roll films. The Herbert George Savoy Mark II, Adventurer 620, 620 Official Cub Scout, Official Girl Scout 620, Herco Imperial, and Imperial Six-Twenty used the same camera body and lens. The Herbert George Company main camera brand is the Imperial plus Herco but ownership changed and the company was officially renamed Imperial Camera Company in 1961. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $40.00 with the flash unit.
Herold: Flash Master camera  Herold: Flash Masterc1950s 201915.00The Herold Flash Master Bakelite viewfinder camera was just one of the cameras in the manufacturing debacle created by the sale of the Utility Manufacturing Company’s Falcon brand. The buyer then moved it and its product to 711/715 West Lake Street, Chicago, home of the Monarck manufacturing Company and Spartus Corporation. This started the complicated Company naming game. Some of the branding names were Falcon, Monarck, Seymour, Herold, Spartus, Galter, and Spencer, Cinex, Photo Master, plus more. This business model was repeated in Taiwan years later and continues today throughout the globe (cheap product with many names and brand names).
The Flash Master camera was marketed by the Herold Products Company in 1942. Designed as a simple candid camera that was capable of shooting under any lighting condition. The photoflash unit had a 3 3/16 inch diameter plated reflector, used two penlight batteries (AA), was electronically operated (synchronized), plus was labeled Spartus on the battery cover and could be used on the Spartus Box 120, Spartus 35, Spartus 35 F, Pho-tac Macy, Pho-tac Scout 120 Flash, and the Pho-tac Spectator Flash. The Herold camera was constructed of Bakelite with a built-in open viewfinder with no optics. It was fitted with a genuine Graf meniscus 50mm lens and flash-synchronized time and instantaneous 1/25 of a second shutter. The shutter lens combination was used on many cameras and if you remove the metal lens plate you will find the words Photo Master embossed on the plastic in all capital letters. The Herold Flash Master is a half frame camera with two red windows in the back cover for frame counting and for capturing sixteen exposures on no. 127 or A8 roll films. The exact camera (Flash Master) can be found with the Seymour Products Company Inc. name. The Photo Master Company’s Photo Master Camera with the Bakelite face is the same camera without the two flash posts but used the same molds. Spartus used the shutter assembly with an upgrade on the Spartus Miniature. The Miniature lens is a Graf Achromat 50mm F7.7 single element and it has two apertures of F7.7 and F16. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $25.00 with the flash unit in 2019.
Hi-Lite Industrial: Caprice Pocketpak 330 camera  Hi-Lite Industrial: Caprice Pocketpak 330  202010.00The Caprice Pocket 330 is a 110 film cartridge camera made by the Hi-Lite Industrial Company in Singapore in the 1970s. The camera used the popular 1970s Flipflash plug-in cartridge. The “flip flash” cartridge held 8 or 10 flash bulbs with individual reflectors, they were ganged up so that you could take one photo after another without pausing to swap bulbs. The camera also uses 12 to 20 exposure 110 film cartridges. The film could be Black & White, Color, or slid producing 110 film. The camera has an optical viewfinder, about a 45mm focus free lens with a minimum range of 1.25m (4 feet), right index finger or thumb push bar frame advance, FlipFlash socket, large shutter release button, film observation plus frame count window in the back cover, and a hard point to connect a wrist carry strap. The camera also has one shutter speed of 1/50 of a second and a fixed medium aperture of f8. The camera came in a hard plastic clam shell case that slid into a cardboard sleeve that showed the camera with a FlipFlash attached. The unattached wrist strap and a user’s pamphlet were in the box with the camera. The camera pictured here is in new condition and worth $8.00 to $10.00 in 2020.
Holga: Holga 120 CFN camera  Holga: Holga 120 CFNc1990s 20194.00The Holga camera was initially introduced to the Chinese public in 1982 as an inexpensive camera for everyday use. Shortly after its introduction, it became an underground artistic phenomenon. Using the Holga is an exercise in breaking free from dependence on technology, precision, and controllability. The slight softness of the images, vignetting and random light leaks produce dream-like, one-of-a-kind images. The Holga 120CFN (Model: 146120) is modeled after the original Holga 120N but includes a built-in flash with a spinning color wheel for your choice of red, yellow, blue or standard white flash. The camera uses 2 AA batteries for flash operation only, and 120 medium format film. This camera has 2 film masks for either 12- 6x6 cm images or 16- 6x4.5cm images. There are two shutter settings of 1/100 of a second and bulb. Also 2 aperture settings of f/11 for sunny and f/8 for cloudy. Other features are a hot shoe adapter, ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket, Lens cap, and strap. The camera uses a fixed focus f8 60mm lens with a focus distance of 0.9m to infinity. The CFN came in a variety of colors including green, orange, yellow, white, blue, pink, purple, red, camo, and color combination of the parts of the cameras. The cameras are selling used between $10.00 to $80.00 depending on condition, model, and colors. Sealed in the box, the cameras can fetch close to $100.00. The camera pictured here is in working condition but listed as poor. It is missing the film advance wheel but can be used and it is worth $5.00 in 2019.
Houghton: Ensign 2 1/4 B (box) camera  Houghton: Ensign 2 1/4 B (box)c1912-1920s 201910.00The Box Ensign 2¼B was made by Houghton-Butcher in the UK from 1912 into the 1920s. The camera was changed in 1923 by adding a wire frame viewfinder to the front and loading film from the back. It took 2¼×3¼ (6×9cm) negatives on 120 films (Ensign 2¼B film). It has a simple rotary 1/50 of a second Instant/Timed shutter. There was also a 2¼A model, for 2¼ square images. There are at least three models of the 2 ¼ B, one with a meniscus lens, and another with a Rapid Rectilinear (RR) lens. The camera has three (unlabeled but about 5.6, 8, and 16) apertures that are selected by a slider above the shutter release. Some versions have a plug-type lens cap that was made of leatherette-covered cardboard and attached by a string to the lens surround. The third model was manufactured under license for Australia and New Zealand under the "HR Ton" trademark. This model did not include the wire viewfinder and the Ensign model details were only included on a sticker on the inside. Besides the wire frame viewfinder (sports finder) the camera had two waist-level (Watson-type) finders for landscape and portrait. The Ensign 2¼B was available in black, red, or a leather-grain effect brown. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2019.
Houghton: Ensignette No.1 camera  Houghton: Ensignette No.1c1909-1920s 201932.00This Ensignette was patented in 1907 and started production release in 1909. The patent number is 28484 and continued production until 1920. The body of the camera is made entirely from brass sheet and painted flat black inside and has a gloss black exterior. The brass nickel plated bits and screws make up the rest of the metal parts. The front of the camera faceplate is etched with ENSIGNETTE in an arc over the lens escutcheon and etched at the bottom is MADE BY HOUGHTON LTD LONDON in a very small font. Also on the faceplate of later models is two round embossed emblems. One has PATENT 28484 1907 and the other round embossed emblem has a flag with ENSIGN on it and a small British flag at the top within the flag plus the word BRITISH MADE below the flag. The camera is one of the smallest billows cameras ever made. The Ensignette measures 98 x 48 x 20mm (3 7/8 x 2 x 3/4 inches) when closed and 80 mm (3 1/4 inches) when open. It weighs 220 g (7 3/4 ounces) without film. The camera also has 3 apertures of f/11, f/16 and f/22, a fold-out table top leg for landscape pictures, two shutter setting of Timed plus Instant, 1/30 of a second leaf shutter, frame number red view window in the camera back with a slid cover, right thumb shutter release arm, a fold-down paddle film advance winder, and one Brilliant type viewfinder. The camera used Ensign E1 roll film (128 roll film) that produced a 57 x 38mm (2 ¼ x 1 ½ inches) picture but the film was discontinued in 1941. The camera pictured here is in Fine working condition plus fine esthetic condition and worth $70.00 in 2019.

ICA: Icarette (6x6) camera  ICA: Icarette (6x6)c1912-1920s 201922.00The Ica Icarette 6x6 roll film "No.495" camera was introduced in 1912 and discontinued in 1926 when Ica merged with Goerz, Ernemann and Contessa-Nettel in 1926 to form Zeiss Ikon. The camera uses 120 films (some early versions for 117 roll film) for 6x6cm exposures (and 4.5x6cm on plates). It is a horizontal style folding billows camera also known as "Model A", "Icarette B", "Icarette", "Icarette I", "No.493" (roll film only), "No.495" (roll film only), and "No.496" (roll film + plates). The Icarette series of cameras are non-self-erecting. After the incorporation of ICA into Zeiss Ikon, the camera series was continued under the Zeiss Ikon name but keeping the former ICA product codes. In 1930 the cameras were given new Zeiss Ikon product numbers. They were discontinued around 1934. The camera has a Novar Anastigmat 1:6.8 F=7,5cm lens, Collapsible brilliant finder, some versions have Iconometer (wire finder), focusing Lever on the bed, 3/8 inch 16 thread tripod socket, and a screw in shutter release plunger socket. The years produced were Icarette I (495), Icarette A (US catalogs), or Ica Icarette I (495) (1912-1925), Zeiss Ikon Icarette 493 (1928-1929), and the Zeiss Ikon Icarette 509/16 (1930-c.1934). The camera also has a pull-out tab in the back cover. In one tab position, the red window is uncovered for checking film advance, in another position the tab served as eyesight for the wire finder. The back of the Icarette is easily removed by pressing two little buttons at once on the top and bottom of the one side. When retracting the lens assembly and closing the bed, the brilliant finder collapses automatically to fit in the closed body. The camera has a sturdy metal construction, covered with fine-grained leatherette. Many lenses were fitted to the camera including the one mentioned above was the Baldour 75mm ƒ/8, Helios 75mm ƒ/8, Hekla 75mm ƒ/6.8, Maximar 75mm ƒ/6.8, Icar 75mm ƒ/6.3, Dominar 75mm ƒ/4.5, and the Tessar 75mm ƒ/6.3 or ƒ/4.5. Along with the lenses were a few shutters like the Ica Automat mod. X (1/25-1/100), Derval (1/25-1/100), Compound (1 second -1/250), and the Compur (1 second -1/250) When Zeiss Ikon was formed (1926). The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $35.00 in 2019.
Ihagee: Auto-Ultrix (2860, Double-format) cameraIhagee: Auto-Ultrix (2860, Double-format) camera  Ihagee: Auto-Ultrix (2860, Double-format)1931-c1940 202022.00This 1931 to 1940 120 film folding camera initially only offered a 6x9 format but starting in 1933 it was able to take 6x9 and 4.5x6 exposures. The camera has an Ihagee Sol Anastigmat f4.5 105mm lens in a Prontor manual load shutter with speeds of 1/25 to 1/125 of a second and Time plus Bulb. The focus range is 2.5 feet to infinity and the apertures are 4.5 to 22. The camera also has a waist high brilliant and an eye level fold out frame viewfinder that came on the later models. The cameras came with a number of lenses and shutter combinations. 2860 refers to the catalog designation of the camera. Ihagee put a small catalog out every year other than the war years. The camera was manufactured by Ihagee Kamerawerk, Steenbergen & Co., Dresden, Germany. It produced a broad range of folding cameras with the name Ultrix before WW2. All Ultrix series were produced from 1922 to 1940. Before the camera will fold you have to set the focus range to infinity or you will bind up and risk damaging the struts. Other features of the camera are two 3/8 inch tripod sockets, delayed shutter timer, shutter plunger socket, closable red frame count window in the back cover, carry handle, and a removable front lens for cleaning only. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $50.00 in 2020.

Ihagee: Exakta VX IIa (Exakta Varex IIa) camera  Ihagee: Exakta VX IIa (Exakta Varex IIa)1957-1961  201922.00This is an Exakta VXIIa with a black and white “EXAKTA” name plate introduced in 1961. Ihagee never made lenses of its own brand for the Exakta cameras. Many of the major optical firms produced lenses for them, including Meyer, Carl Zeiss Jena, Schneider-Kreuznach, E.Ludwig, and many others. Exakta’s were rather expensive cameras, used by professionals and serious amateurs beginning with the Exakta Varex. The lenses, eye-level pentaprism, and waist-level viewfinders are interchangeable within all versions. This version has flash three PC sockets, M, F, X, synchronized (separate on the fast speeds knob). The back cover to the film compartment is hinged and detachable. The camera has a shutter locking cap, frame counter, shutter speeds of 1/25 to 1/1000 of a second plus B/T, self-timer, left handed shutter release with plunger socket, and an optical viewfinder. The camera pictured here has a Meyer-Optik Görlitz Domiplan 50mm 2.8 Versions for an EXA / Exakta mount worth about $35.00 and the camera body is in Fine condition worth $65.00 in 2019.
Ihagee: Exakta VX IIb (Varex IIb) camera  Ihagee: Exakta VX IIb (Varex IIb)1963-1967 201720.00Early Kine Exakta’s had a fixed waist-level viewfinder, but later models, starting with the Exakta Varex, had an interchangeable waist- or eye-level finder. Examat and Travemat Through-the-lens metering prisms were introduced in the mid-1960s. Most controls—including the shutter release and the film wind lever—are on the left-hand side, unlike most other cameras. The film is transported in the opposite direction to other 35mm SLRs. In classic Exakta’s—made between 1936 and 1969—two film canisters can be used, one containing unexposed film and a second into which is wound the exposed film. A sliding knife built into the bottom of the camera can be used to slice the film so that the canister containing the exposed film can be removed while preserving the unexposed film in the main canister. The knife was omitted in the Exakta VX500, one of the last "official" Exakta cameras. The shutter release on classic Exakta’s is on the front of the camera, rather than the top. It is pressed with the left forefinger. This is quite similar to the Praktina design (which adapted it from Ihagee's product), the shutter-release of which was located on the right-hand side of the camera-body front. Later lenses produced for Exakata’s (Ihagee did not produce their own lenses), known either as "automatic" or "semi-automatic" lenses, included a button in an extension that would align over the camera body's shutter release when the lens was mounted. The diaphragm of these lenses remained fully open, providing a bright viewfinder image, until the button was depressed halfway, when the iris would be stopped down to the shooting aperture; pressed farther, the lens button engaged the camera's shutter release button, tripping the shutter. There was a full line of specialized equipment available for these system cameras that included microscope adaptor, extension bellows, stereo attachments, medical attachments and various specialized finder screens. Equipment is fully compatible between all models manufactured between 1936 and 1969. The spelling found on cameras has traditionally been Exakta, but some early Kine-Exakta’s were marked Exacta specifically for marketing in France, Portugal and the U.S., perhaps for copyright reasons; and certainly a great number of American collectors refer to the whole range as the "Exacta." A related line of smaller, simpler cameras was the "Exa" line; these, too, existed in several variations. The Beseler Topcon line of 35mm cameras used the same lens mount as the Exakta. In the early 1970s the Exakta "RTL 1000" was introduced; it accepted the older models' lenses but had its own range of viewfinders, which included a model with through-the-lens light metering. M42 lens mount variants of the RTL line of cameras also appeared under the Practica name. After an economic collapse following Germany's reunification, the successor of the firm (Pentacon, which subsumed Ihagee) is now back in business. This company is not related to the Dutchman Johan Steenbergen, the founder of Ihagee, or with the Exakta, which was discontinued in the 1970s. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $40.00 in 2017.

At some point Kalimar put its name on the 35mm Kalimar Precision Zoom. The Kalimar Precision Zoom is unusual in that it is the only cheap plastic camera that I have seen with a zoom lens. I would guess it was made in the 1990\'s since that is when a zoom lens became the standard lens for many cameras. Other than its zoom lens the Kalimar Precision Zoom could be considered a standard toy camera. It has one shutter speed (about 1/50 of a second) and one aperture around f11. It doesn\'t need a battery (one AA Alkaline) if you want to use the flash. The Precision Zoom (35 to 55mm) does seem to be more solidly built than most toy cameras.

Kalimar: Kalimar SR200 camera  Kalimar: Kalimar SR200c1973 20180.00The Zenit E was a Russian-built SLR camera body for M42 screw lenses, made from 1965-1968. The Zenit range was quite popular since it was priced moderately; furthermore it was offered under several other brands: (Kalimar SR200 1973, Foto-Quelle Revueflex E 1967, and Wirgin Prinzflex E 1967 to 1970.
The camera offered only shutter speeds of 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250 and 1/500, plus 'B' for longer exposures. The distance scale was drawn against the calculator scale, showing the acceptable tolerance, depending on aperture. The minimal focusing distance was about 0.65m with the Industar 50 (50mm f3.5) objective (and 0.46m with the Helios-44 58mm f2) but a set of extension rings was manufactured for this camera, allowing close distance macro pictures. The Kalimar SR200 requires the user to manually stop down the diaphragm before exposure; the lens has an extra ring for this purpose. It has a selenium meter. The meter's photo cell was placed above the lens mount behind a protecting window, and its instrument was placed beside a two-slice analog exposure calculator. A ring in the meter was coupled to that calculator on which the film speed had to be preselected, and when the meter's needle matched the ring the calculator showed the correct shutter-speed/aperture combinations. This device was not connected to the actual speed/aperture controls. The camera has a self-timer release button in the front with a timer lever below it, a flash unit port front right, an accessory mount on the top, a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and a single action film advance lever. The Kalimar SR200 was produced in both black and silver; and there were commemorative versions for the upcoming 1980 Moscow Olympic Games with the five Olympic rings on it. There were two styles of markings, a Kalimar SR200 badge and Kalimar embossed in black on one side and SR200 on the other. The Kalimar SR200 like the Zenit E comes in all black or clad in black leatherette with a silver top and bottom. The camera pictured here is the Olympic version and in good condition. It is worth $20.00 in 2018

It was made to use three types of Polaroid pack film, 108, 107 and 88. It has automatic flash control with an electric eye sensor that only uses flash when needed and also an on/off switch in the front face. Flash is provided by a flash bar and the camera red warning light on the back of the camera will light after each fifth shot telling you to rotate or replace the flash bar. The shutter has to be manually set but is electronic at the same time and has speeds of 10 seconds to 1/500 of a second. The flash, shutter, and the rest of the electronics need four AAA batteries to function. The 750 has an f/8.8 40mm color corrected three element glass lens and you turn the lens escutcheon to the footage you think the subject is from the camera.

Keystone: Auto-Instant 115 X camera  Keystone: Auto-Instant 115 Xc1975 20082.00This is a 126 film cartridge camera introduced in 1975 that used the self contained flashcube so it needed no batteries.

The camera is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.
The flashcube was called Magicube (or X-Cube) and was superficially similar to the original Flashcube. However, the Magicube did not require electrical power- each bulb was set off by a plastic pin in the cube mount that released a cocked spring wire within the cube. This wire, in turn, struck a primer tube, at the base of the bulb, which contained a fulminate. The fulminate ignited shredded zirconium foil in the flash and, thus, a battery was not required.

The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $40.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Automatic 35 camera  Kodak Eastman: Automatic 351959-1964 202012.00Based largely on the Kodak Signet 50, the Kodak Automatic 35 utilized that camera’s basic body, film transport, and lens. The lens was a 44mm f/2.8 Kodak Ektanar (Lumenized), a 4-element Tessar design with front element focusing. Like many of Kodak's better lenses of this period, the lenses are somewhat radioactive but nothing to be concerned about. The camera had a drum take up spool and bottom mounted advance lever. The camera was introduced in 1959 and the last one made was in 1964. It had a list price of $84.50 and uses 35mm film. The shutter is a Synchro 80 and the camera has provisions for a screw mount flash unit on its left side. The lens produce's a decent picture when in focus. This camera is light but uncomfortable to shoot, it does not offer an image to match for focusing, and instead you had to speculate the distant of your subject (2.5f - Infinity). The camera pictured above is in Good condition and is worth $20.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Bantam f4.5 camera  Kodak Eastman: Bantam f4.51938-1948 202020.00Because 35mm film originated as a stock for movie cameras, a large fraction of its width is taken up with sprocket holes—not a requirement in a stills camera. Thus, Eastman Kodak introduced an alternative "miniature" format, 828 film, consisting of paper-backed rolls 35mm wide, but having only one registration hole per image. This permitted an image area of 28×40 mm, increasing the image area nearly 30% compared to standard 35mm. Kodak re-used some ideas from the 828 format (paper-backed film 35mm wide with only a single index hole per frame) in their wildly popular 126 cartridge, introduced in 1963 with Kodak Instamatic cameras. Camera-wiki.org
The Bantam F4.5 camera was manufactured by Eastman Kodak Co. from 1938 to 1948. It was a popular camera due to its ease of operation and compact size. The camera was constructed with an aluminum body covered in black morocco-grained Kodadur material and is a pop-up strut folder with a billows. It was capable of capturing 28mm (1.1 inches) x 40mm (1.57 inches) exposures on type 828 "Bantam" film. It is fitted with a Special Kodak F4.5 coated Anastigmat lens with stops down to f16. The body and linkage released manual load shutter provide speeds of 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/200 of a second, plus bulb and time. There was also a socket for a plunger shutter release that you had to remove a screw (in place for a light seal) to use. The camera measures 11.43cm (4 ½ inches) x 6.98cm (2 3/4inches) x 3.81am (1 1/2 inches) when folded and weighs 9 ounces. The Bantam F4.5 camera was priced around $40.40 with an optional leather case for $5.50. The top models in the Bantam series were outfitted with f/4.5 Kodak Anastigmat Special lenses. Some of this information was gleaned from camera-wiki.org and Historiccamera.com. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2020.

The geometrical figures are typical Art Deco and credited to Walter Dorwin Teague. The possible colors are black/brown, rose/pink, blue/light blue, green/green blue, tan/light tan and all black. The metal body is covered with imitation leather. The only adjustments were I & B shutter speeds and three choices of aperture, given by sliders on the top edge. It has a 1/50 of a second shutter, red frame count window in the back, leather handle, film advance winder that pulled out to release the internal film mechanism, two ¼” 20 thread tripod sockets, and two brilliant viewfinders for portrait plus landscape.

There are more color combinations for this particular camera than you can imagine; white, black, blue, and red bodies, some with different colored buttons. Kodak also released 2 other models using the name “Élysées” with an elegant cursive font, and faux mother-of-pearl finish and the S100EF with more classic design features. The cameras were manufactured in Hong Kong plus Taiwan and the retail price was approximately $59.00. New in the box you received the Camera, ASA 200 24 exposures Kodacolor film, two Kodak ‘Supralife’ AA batteries, wrist strap, warranty card, and instruction manual in multiple languages.

These cameras have a focusing distance of 4′ (1.2m) to infinity with a reverse Galilean type viewfinder. The lens is a 35mm, F/4.5 focus free Kodak Ektanar glass three element and a fixed shutter speed of 1/125 of a second. The camera also has a built in lens cover (acts as on/off switch), built in flash that recharges in about 7 seconds with a range of about 13′ (3m) with ISO 100 speed film, and 18′ (5.5m) with ISO 400 film, and uses two AA batteries to power the flash only. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $5.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Brownie Fiesta camera  Kodak Eastman: Brownie Fiesta1962-1966 20195.00The Brownie Fiesta has a molded plastic body with a clear plastic front, over the lens plate, and also has a direct vision viewfinder. This camera was made in many variations. In 1962 till October of 1965, the Brownie Fiesta was available in the familiar two-tone grey and silver model. Then in May of 1965 till June of 1966, a two-tone dark and light blue replaced the original model. There are models that were made with other color schemes that are not in any official information from Eastman Kodak or The Eastman House Museum. The two tone grey fiesta was a giveaway in the early 60’s as a promotion put on by Campbell Soup. You sent them about 15 soup labels and they would send you a camera. The camera uses 127 roll film and was manufactured in the US and Spain. It has a meniscus lens, f/11 aperture, a single shutter speed of 1/40th of a second, and originally sold for $5.95. The “Kodak Fiesta Camera Outfit” came with a flash unit, AG-1 flash bulbs, one roll of film, a carry strap in a little envelope, and two AA batteries. The flash unit has two contacts that slid into the back of the camera along with tracts on the camera and flash assembly that hold the unit on the top. The flash unit primarily used AG-1 flash bulbs with the Vertachrome Pan Black & White or the Kodacolor film but suggests AG-1B bulbs if using the color Ektachrome film. It is powered by two AA batteries that are placed in parallel and with both negative sides opposite the ejector tab. The camera produces a picture 3 ½” x 3 ½” and a 2” x 2” slide with a picture area of 1 ½” x 1 ½”. The camera pictured above and to the left is in good condition, comes with the original box, has the detachable flash unit, and is worth $10.00 in 2019.
Kodak Eastman: Brownie Fiesta R4 camera  Kodak Eastman: Brownie Fiesta R41966-1969 20205.00The Brownie Fiesta R4 has a molded plastic body with an aluminum lens plate and a clear plastic escutcheon. This simple camera has a medium sized optical direct vision finder and a fixed focus meniscus f/11 lens. The Brownie Fiesta R4 had the addition of a flashcube socket which was considered an improvement over the single bulb flash attachment available with all of the other Fiesta models. Other features are the red window in the back for frame counting with use of the numbered paper backing of the film, 1/40 of a second shutter, a manual flash cube socket on the top, frame advance knob on the bottom of the camera, and uses 127 size roll film. It was made by the Eastman Kodak Company in Rochester, NY, USA and originally sold for $9.00. It is unclear how many were produced but it is safe to say the hundreds of thousands. The flash unit used two PX825 mercury batteries for power that were discontinued for obvious environmental reasons. There are a number of replacement batteries like the EPX825, S825PX, LR53, BLR53, and the KA825 Silver Oxide 1.55V Battery. The camera did not have any double exposure protection and was only produced from 1966 to 1969. The camera pictured here is in poor condition with a corroded battery compartment. It still works otherwise and is worth $4.00 in 2020.

The camera was introduced in April of 1959 and discontinued October of 1962. The Rollfilm size was 620 and with a Meniscus f/11 three aperture lens this single shutter speed camera originally sold for $14.00.

Kodak Eastman: Brownie No.2A Model C (US) camera  Kodak Eastman: Brownie No.2A Model C (US)1924-1933 201712.00One of the interesting features for the 1907 Brownie 2A Model C is its two viewfinders – one for portrait mode and another one for landscape mode. Along with two viewfinders, in 1924 it was given two tripod ¼ inch 20 thread bushes so that you can mount the camera on a tripod in either portrait or landscape acclimation. The camera has two shutter settings of B and 1/50th of a second depending on the age and condition of the rotary shutter. The “B” mode is engaged with a slide tab on top of the camera that you pull out. When you lift the “B” tab, the shutter release will keep the shutter open until you switch it back to where you started in either direction. The shutter release also has no double exposure protection and it is possible to take multipole exposure on the same frame. The other pull tab next to the “B” tab is the aperture setting. It’s a metal slide plate with three holes in it and you can feel a stop at each location. The instructions just call the openings “Small”, “Medium”, and “Large”. The actual apertures are close to f/11, f/16, and f/22. The No. 2A Brownie was designed for 116 film that is no longer available, but you can use 120 film with some work. The focus range of the Meniscus lens is 2 meters (6 1/2 feet) to infinity but Kodak did sell a close up lens that could be fitted. The camera had a long production run, from 1907 to 1933 in the US, Canada, and from 1930 to 1933 it was manufactured in the UK. In Aug 1909-Eyelets were fitted to the lens opening and finder windows on the side and top.

Kodak Eastman: Brownie Target Six-16 (US) camera  Kodak Eastman: Brownie Target Six-16 (US)1941-1951 20213.00The Brownie Target Six-16 was produced in the USA between 1941 and 1951. It came with a number of art deco faceplate. The camera is interesting because of how large it is and its unusual film size. After producing no new film sizes for 16 years Kodak introduced two relatively short lived film sizes in 1932. These were the 620 and 616 which were designed to replace earlier sizes however the other sizes had become so well used around the world that the two new sizes failed to ignite the photographic world and had all but disappeared by the beginning of the 1960s. Kodak discontinued 616 production in 1984 and 620 followed eleven years later in 1995. 616 roll film produced 2 ½” x 4 ¼” pictures. The camera has a meniscus lens, rotary shutter, and sold for $4.00 when introduced originally. The cardboard casing housed the metal and glass components mounted on a black stained piece of wood. Other features of the camera are two brilliant viewfinders (portrait plus landscape), two shutter speeds (timed/bulb plus 1/50 of a second), and a two position aperture slide bar operated from the top of the camera (f11 plus f16). \"Target\" cameras were primarily made and sold in North America. The name \"Target\" was used for quite a few different cameras by Kodak including Hawk-Eye cameras as well for Brownie cameras. The camera pictured here is in good working order but has esthetic problems and one chipped lens on the portrait brilliant viewfinder. For this reason the camera is worth $5.00 in 2021.

The cameras continued to be produced as Hawk-Eyes from but after the end of World War 1 most of these were made for premium sales only and unfortunately were not always listed in catalogues. The camera was produced under the Kodak name exclusively from 1926 to 1934. Some models were made in the UK from 1927 to 1939, including models designed in and for the UK. The No 2 Hawkette was the first all plastic Kodak camera. The hyphen was dropped from the name making Hawk-Eye into Hawkeye for later models.

Kodak Eastman: Challenger camera  Kodak Eastman: Challenger1986-1990  20165.00The Kodak Tele Disc was introduced in the middle of the short-lived disc camera era in order to spice up Kodak’s lineup. Interestingly, the Tele Disc has two lens choices: a normal 12.5mm f/4 and 22mm f/5.6 telephoto. Unlike the Ricoh R1 which relies on the insertion of additional optical elements to modify the focal length, the Tele Disc actually has two separate lenses. Extending the flash rotates the telephoto lens into place and also swaps in a new viewfinder. The Kodak Challenger was introduced in 1986 and discontinued in 1990 at the end of the disc era that started in 1982 and ended in 1998 with the discontinuation of production of the film by Kodak. Kodak’s inventory of disc film ran out in 1999. The Challenger is a 'premium' version of the Disc 3600 and not as easy to find as one might anticipate. The shutter speed is 1/300 of a second and the camera used the VR Disc that gave you an 8 by 10mm picture size. The camera also has a carry strap, flash off slide switch, frame count window, flash ready light, built in lens cover, power film advance, and it uses two AA batteries to power it all. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
A disc film cartridge is a bit smaller than a 3.5 inch floppy disk and behaves much like the disk for a View-Master. Pressing the red-striped shutter button exposes an 8x11mm frame on the disk, which then rotates 24° for the next photo for a total of 15 frames per cartridge. Despite the convenience and foolproof loading procedure, disc film was a big commercial failure. Although new emulsion technology at the time meant that the tiny negatives contained a relatively surprising amount of detail, graininess, and poor image quality disappointed consumers and led to disc film’s ultimately forgettable demise.

Kodak Eastman: Champ Kodamatic camera  Kodak Eastman: Champ Kodamatic1982-1984 20201.00Kodak lost a major law suit with Polaroid over their version of instant film. Upon introduction of Kodak instant products, Polaroid filed a suit against Kodak in 1976 for patent infringement. The case dragged on for years. After the ruling against Kodak in 1985, The Eastman Kodak Company announced the discontinuation of their instant photo products including all cameras. They offered your money back and all you had to do was remove the nameplate off the front of the camera and send it to them with your purchase receipt. This is the reason why you see so many Kodak instant-film cameras without the nameplate. Before all the lawsuits this camera was Kodak\'s answer to the Polaroid SX-70 camera. The camers ended up being enormous in order for Kodak to try and get by Polaroid\'s patents. It is very large and becomes even larger when you attached the flash unit. The Champ used Kodak’s new film (no longer available) and Kodak\'s film is said to have turned out a finished picture that looked better than the Polaroid SX-70 equivalent. . The camera has an f/1:12.8 100mm fixed focus lens. The shutter was capable of speeds up to 1/300 of a second. The camera used Kodak’s PR-10 instant film but Fuji did make a film that could be used with the camera. Other features are the built in flash, optical viewfinder, carry strap, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera needs 6 volts and that was supplied by SIZE J battery held in a compartment in the back. Every collection needs at least one Champ. The camera pictured here has the label removed but is in good condition and worth $3.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Colorburst 250 camera  Kodak Eastman: Colorburst 2501979 20205.00This Colorburst 250 was manufactured by Kodak and introduced in 1979 then discontinued in 1982. The camera has an f/1:12.8 100mm fixed focus lens. The shutter was capable of speeds of 2 seconds to 1/300 of a second. The camera used Kodak’s PR-10 instant film but Fuji did make a film that could be used with the camera. Other features are the built in flash, optical viewfinder, rainbow carry strap, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera needs 6 volts and that was supplied by 4 AA batteries held in a compartment in the back. The Colorburst line was Kodak's answer to the Polaroid instant cameras...but Polaroid wasn't so happy about it! They sued Kodak for patent infringement and won (still the largest patent infringement case in history), Kodak was ordered to stop producing all their instant film and instant film cameras. Kodak gave the money back to owners of the camera after losing to Polaroid but only if you sent in the front name plate and so many of these cameras are without it. The settlement involved four groups of instant cameras made by Kodak with ten cameras in group 1 ($50), fourteen in group 2 ($55), six in group 3 ($60), and nine in group 4 ($70) for a total of 39 cameras. The Colorburst 250 was in the group 3 and the money was a combination of cash, 1 stock in Kodak, new camera replacement, and or redeemable Kodak coupons. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $5.00 to $10.00 in 2020.

Kodak disc cameras, manufactured by the Eastman Kodak Company, Rochester, New York, USA, were introduced by in the USA in June 1982 with the Disc 4000, 6000 and 8000 models. At the same time an international model, the Kodak Disc 2000, was introduced but this was not available in the USA. All four models reached the UK market in September 1982. Consumers failed to take to them in the way Kodak had hoped. Images were often described as “acceptable” but never exceptional. With sales falling, Kodak ceased camera production in 1988, and film production in 1998. Over the years of production Kodak made the disc 2000, 3000, 4000, 6000, 8000, 3500, 3100, 4100, 6100, 3600, and Hawkeye disc 7000, Medalist I, II, and Tele. Also the Kodak Tele disc, Kodak Challenger, Tele Challenger, and Kodak 460, 470 – both premium models.

The Kodak Disc 3000 is a camera for the briefly popular but ultimately unsuccessful disc film format. This particular model used a replaceable or alkaline 9v battery, had a two speed shutter, and was sold from 1983 to 1984. The lens consisted of 4 glass elements with a focal length of 12.5mm at f/2.8, offering a 58° angle of view. The shutter speeds are 1/200 sec f/6 in daylight and 1/100 sec f/2.8 with flash.

Kodak Eastman: Disc 3100 (red) camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc 3100 (red)1984-1987 20165.00This camera features a red faceplate, behind which lies a snapshot camera with electronic flash, all powered by a PP3 or as it is better known 9V battery. A variation of this model with copper-colored faceplate was sold by Kodak. The camera with the red front panel, was sold by J.C. Penney. Although the published marketing dates for the 3100 model are 1984-87, the camerosity date code in this example translates as 10-85 (CYIR). Some of the red front panel models Camerosity codes denote being made before 1984 so maybe J.C. Penney had this model before it was released for general sale. This camera uses VR Disc film and sold in the US for a list price of $48.00. It has a 12.5mm, f/2.8 lens and shutter speeds of 1/100 of a second plus 1/200 of a second. It also has a built in lens and viewfinder cover that seconds as the on/off switch. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.

Kodak Eastman: Disc 4000 camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc 40001982-1984 20172.00Having pioneered other innovations for amateur photographers such as the Instamatic and the 110 cartridge film camera, Kodak launched its disc camera and film in 1982. It was designed to capitalize on the popularity of the simplicity and easy film loading ability of Instamatics, combined with advances in film technology. The Disc 4000 was introduced in 1982 and stopped in 1984. In practice, the very small (8 mm x 10 mm) size of the negatives produced with disc film was unpopular, and Kodak stopped producing cameras for this format in 1990. Production of disc films ended in 1998. The 4000 disc camera had an aspheric lens patented by Kodak, and featured a low-light sensor to automatically activate the flash. This camera also had a power source located somewhere in the camera that you could not replace. Despite the years of use the camera pictured above still works on that same power source. The Disc 4000 above is worth $5.00 to $10.00 in 2017.
Kodak Eastman: Disc 4100 camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc 41001984-1987 20175.00This is an updated version of the Disc 4000, the bottom tier of Kodak's disc series and was introduced in 1984 and discontinued in 1987. According to Kodak's website, there's no difference in the specifications between the old and new models. The only real difference I can see is that this has the folding protective cover, which the 4000 model lacks. So really it's more like the 6000 model, except that they retained the bare-metal finish instead of black plastic all the way around. The lens consisted of 4 glass elements with a focal length of 12.5mm at f/2.8, offering a 58° angle of view. The shutter speeds are 1/200 sec f/6 in daylight and 1/100 sec f/2.8 with flash. Other features are automatic film advance, sliding close-up lens, automatic exposure, built in flash, built in twin 3V Lithium battery set, permanent front cover attached, and it came with a handy carry strap. According to Kodak's site, this was badged as the Medalist I also. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.

They have the unique distinction of being the only cameras at the time that Kodak manufactured for use with the HR Discs instead of film. The Disc system was almost entirely automated, making the loading of film and picture-taking itself much simpler for the consumer. Even the battery was not user-serviceable; the 3v lithium battery had to be replaced by Kodak but did last for an extremely long time. The lens consisted of 4 glass elements with a focal length of 12.5mm at f/2.8, offering a 58° angle of view. The shutter speeds are 1/200 sec f/6 in daylight and 1/100 sec f/2.8 with flash.

Kodak Eastman: Disc 6100 camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc 61001984-1987 20176.00The 6100 has a simple 12.5mm (roughly 40mm equivalent) f/2.8 lens with two preset focus zones of 0.5 to 1.2 meters (1.5’ to 5’) and 1.2 meters (5’) to infinity that can be selected by moving the slide switch underneath the lens. This moves a close-up lens in front of the main lens assembly. Exposure is automatically controlled and the built-in flash will fire when deemed necessary. The shutter speeds are 1/200 sec f/6 in daylight and 1/100 sec f/2.8 with flash. Other features are automatic film advance, sliding close-up lens, automatic exposure, built in flash, built in 3V Lithium battery, permanent front cover attached, and it came with a handy carry strap.

Kodak Eastman: Disc 8000 camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc 80001982-1984 20175.00The Disc 8000 was the top of the line. For the extra money you got a self-timer, single-shot and 3-shot burst modes; you got a little LCD clock-alarm built into the cover (which is not integrated with the camera at all, so it's just a tiny travel-alarm), and you got a spiffy gold finish. Modern Photography called it gaudy, but that was the 1980’s. The camera has two 3v lithium batteries, Part Number 227322. They were made by Matsushita Electric (aka Panasonic). You had to send the camera in to Kodak to get them changed. The camera also uses a CR2025 (or equivalent) coin battery for the clock located in the back of the cover. The Kodak Disc 8000 camera was initially priced at $143.00 and manufactured in USA from 1982 until 1984 when production stopped. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2017
The acetate film backing was thicker than 35mm or 110 film therefore more rigid which meant they gave a better format for a flat surface so the film was not the problem with picture quality. The cameras themselves were all fitted with fairly decent aspherical lens so no problem there. The real problem was was the processing. The film was meant to be processed by a 6 element system not the usual 3 element used for processing 35mm film. Few labs wanted to go to the expense of acquiring the new processing equipment so they processed the discs using their existing equipment. Of course they turned out badly, had they used the "right stuff", things may have turned out much differently and the format would have lasted till the digital age.
Kodak Eastman: Disc Challenger camera  Kodak Eastman: Disc Challenger1986-1990 20176.00This camera was produced from 1985 to 1986 for the VR Disc format.

Extending the flash rotates the telephoto lens into place and also swaps in a new viewfinder. Other features are automatic film advance, automatic exposure, built in flash, built in twin 3V Lithium battery set, permanent front cover attached, and it came with a handy carry strap.

Kodak Eastman: DX3500 camera  Kodak Eastman: DX35002001  20173.00The DX3500's 2.2-megapixel CCD can provide 600- by 900-pixel and 1,200- by 1,800-pixel resolution, the densest of any camera in its price range in 2001 when introduced. The Kodak DX3500 Digital Camera is the ultimate in point-and-shoot simplicity -- from snapping a picture, to downloading it to your computer, to making simple corrections, to printing (or emailing) the results -- Kodak fulfills its ongoing promise, "You press the button, we do the rest." The difference is not so much in the camera, since it looks and operates similar to many point-and-shoot models. What really sets it apart is Kodak's new EasyShare System -- a combination of digital camera, software, and docking station. Together, they take a lot of the "high-tech" out of the digital learning curve. The camera has an optical viewfinder, 1.8-inch color display, all glass fixed-focus lens (equivalent to 38mm), digital zoom (3x), built-in flash, internal 8MB storage, compact Flash memory slot, USB computer connection, Camera Docking receiver, and operates on 2 Lithium AA batteries. Originally the camera came with Kodak Picture Software for Mac and PC. The DX3500 makes all exposure decisions automatically. Its wide-angle lens is perfect for photos of small groups or individuals, indoor or outdoor activities, and environmental surroundings like gardens, street scenes, architecture, and landscapes. For people shots though, this is definitely a "Full-Res" lens. If you get closer than about 8 feet and try to focus in on the face, the 38mm equivalent lens will noticeably distort facial features. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and is none functioning. For this reason the camera is worth $1.00 for parts in 2017.

The Camera pictured here is in untested condition and listed as poor. It is worth $3.00 in 2019.

The DX3900 also features an Infinity focus mode, which reduces shutter delay for distant subjects. In addition to the camera's 2x optical zoom, a 3x digital zoom option is available. The camera has a 1.5-inch color LCD monitor with an information display that includes detailed exposure information, including shutter speed and aperture settings.

The camera utilizes either two AA-sized batteries or one CRV3 battery for power. The DX3900 features a USB jack for downloading images to a computer, Video Out jack, Real-image optical viewfinder, and Automatic exposure control with limited slow-shutter settings, CompactFlash memory storage, plus a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket.

Kodak Eastman: Ektra 200 camera  Kodak Eastman: Ektra 2001980-1987 20172.00The Kodak Ektra 200 is among many 110 film cameras made by Kodak. It used disposable flip-flash for indoor photography, was made in (West) Germany, and was produced from 1980 to 1987. A basic snapshot camera usually found with the metallic finish and black folding handle, it was also available in black and white. The cameras lens is a 22mm, f/11 Kodar and it has a 3 speed shutter. The picture size is 13 x 17 mm from the 110 film that is still available, but flip-flash is not. There were at least 13 Ektar cameras produced by Kodak and in Germany, many of these models are referred to as Ritsch-Ratsch because of the sound the film-wind mechanism makes. Kodak's range went from the most basic of snapshot cameras, which are very capable of excellent results, right through to range-finder cameras with wide-aperture lenses. So popular was the 110 format that more than 25 million cameras were produced within three years. Like many of these 110 Kodak cameras Kodak supplied a sheet of self-adhesive initials with these cameras so that the owner could personalize their camera. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Ektralite 400 camera  Kodak Eastman: Ektralite 4001981 20164.00The Ektralite range was developed at the same time as that of Ektra series. It corresponds to the same cameras, but with a built-in flash. This 110 film camera was announced in France November 1980 and was manufactured in Germany from 1981 to 1987. The Ekralite 400 was the basic model of the range during the launching of the Ektralite series. Its lens is a Reomar 24 mm F/6.8, fix-focus from 4 feet (1.2m) to infinity. A cursor makes it possible to choose between the mode “sun” and the “lightning” flash and the turns the flash on/off. The use of the flash regulates the aperture to 6.8 and speed to the 1/60 of a second. In the other position, if the film is Kodacolor 400, speed is 1/250 of a second and the aperture F/9.5. With the film Kodacolor II, the speed is 1/125 of a second and aperture 9.5. The flash and flash ready light is powered by two AAA batteries with a compartment accessed from the back of the camera. The camera also has a right thumb film advance slide lever, frame count view window in the back, optical viewfinder, and the cover seconds as a vertical handle when opened. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
Kodak Eastman: Fiesta Instant camera  Kodak Eastman: Fiesta Instant1979-1982 20197.00The Brownie Fiesta and the PartyTime instant cameras were identical other than the name. The Fiesta released first in 1979 marketed primarily to the Spanish speaking population. One side of the instruction pamphlet was written in Spanish, turn it over and you had English. The PartyTime released one year later in all markets and both cameras were discontinued in 1982 with the release of the PartyTime II. The most widely used film in the cameras was the Kodak Instant Color Film PR144-10 and the cameras used a spreader bar chemical dispersal method similar to Polaroids of the era. The PR144-10 film worked in all Kodak cameras that were not marked KODAMATIC and TRIMPRINT like the PartyTime II that is marked Kodamatic and used Kodak HS144-10 film. The cameras have an electronic shutter, electronic exposure, plus used disposable flash bars that were all powered by a ((# 539 Eveready) (# 7K67 Duracell)) size J 6 volt battery in a compartment in the back of the camera. The lens and optical viewfinder are made of plastic and about 30mm optically. The cameras also have a light/dark slide adjuster for exposure control and a landscape ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. In 1985 Polaroid won the ongoing legal battle with Kodak and along with a hefty fine, all of Kodak’s instant cameras/film was discontinued. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 with the bilingual instruction book in 2019.
Kodak Eastman: Film Pack Hawk-Eye No.2 camera  Kodak Eastman: Film Pack Hawk-Eye No.21922-1925  20158.00Film Packs were introduced in 1903. Initially known as the Premo Film Pack, after 1922 they were renamed as the Kodak Film Pack, and were available in a range of sizes from 6x4.5cm to 13x18cm (5x7"). Originally designed as a replacement for glass plates, indeed adaptors were available for many glass plate cameras. Up until the mid-1920's Eastman Kodak manufactured many cameras with the Premo and Hawk-Eye brand names specifically for this format. An interesting cross-over between old and new technology, the Film Pack comprised 12 cut celluloid films, stored in an (initially cardboard, later metal) outer case that was simply placed in the back of the camera, packed in such a way that the simple expedient of pulling a paper tab loaded a fresh film into place for each exposure, the previously exposed film being at the same time moved to the back of the pack. Each of the paper tabs, which protrude through a slot in the cameras top and were torn off after being used, had a number on it which acted as a basic, though perfectly efficient exposure counter. The camera is all metal with two reflecting finders, meniscus lens, 1/50 of a second leaf shutter with bulb setting, and a handy leather handle with the name embossed on it. On the back of this camera are the words “MOEHRING’S LYNN, MASS.” In white letters. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2015.

Kodak Eastman: Folding Autographic Brownie No.2 camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Autographic Brownie No.21915-1926  201510.00The camera was introduced in September of 1915 and discontinued in 1926. It used autographic No.A-120 or regular 120 roll film for a picture size of 2 1/4” X 3 1/4" and was manufactured in the US plus UK. The camera came with either an Achromatic or a Rapid Rectilinear lens from 1915 to 1923. The Achromatic lens and the Rapid Rectilinear less was coupled with the ball bearing shutter from 1915 to 1923. From 1924 to 1926 they used a Kodex shutter and in 1925 to 1926 you could have a Kodar f/7.9 lens with a Kodex shutter. A UK variation had an Anastigmat f/6.3 lens with a Kodex shutter in 1926. The numbers made are unknown but 540,000 were produced before 1921 at an original price of $10.13 and you could buy a carrying case for $1.25. The camera has black imitation leather covering, two position reflecting finder plus foot for portrait or landscape, sliding bed focusing with two lock positions (8’ plus 100’ from serial number 1,001 on), autographic port with metal writing pin, and a frame view port in the back of the camera. The camera had a style change to the Autographic attachment in 1916 after serial number 53,501 found on the back of the foot support locking lever. It also changed in 1917 from square ended cases to round from serial number 133,301 on. In 1919 the support foot shape changed from shallow S cure to shallow C curve from serial number 375,601 on. The serial number on this camera is 323,543 plus the camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $10.00 in 2015.

Kodak Eastman: Folding Autographic Brownie No.2A camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Autographic Brownie No.2A1915-1926  201715.00The Kodak No. 2A Folding Autographic Brownie was a folding camera for type 116 Autographic film with a frame Size of 2 1/2 × 4 1/4 inches. It was made by Canadian Kodak Co. Ltd in Toronto, Canada and in Rochester, NY, USA by Eastman Kodak Company. The years of production were 1915 to 1926 and 210,000 were produced before 1921 but the final count is not known. The uncommon early square box design was replaced in late 1917 with the rounded edge cameras and the camera had a price of $9.00 in 1922. The shutter was either a Kodex no.1 shutter with speeds B, T, 1/25, 1/50 of a second, or Kodak Ball Bearing shutter with an additional 1/100 of a second speed for "moving objects", as the shutter says. The lens was either a Kodar 122mm f/7.8 or an f9 Bausch and Lomb rapid rectilinear. Aperture was marked "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9" on early models and f7.9 to f22 on later models. The Bausch and Lomb version had f4 to f64. Focusing is by distance zone, 8, 25, 100 feet (2.5, 8, 30, meters) detents on bellows slide extension. The cameras originally came with a small metal styles that was kept in a holder provided on the cover of the autograph window on the back of the camera. The Autographic film never really caught on and was discontinued soon after 1932 for lack of sales. The purpose of Autographic film, introduced in 1914, was to allow a photographer to make notes about a photograph and have those notes appear in the margin of the processed print. Some of this film exists today with an expiration date of about late 1930’s. It is not being reproduced and the old film can be considered bad. Either type of film could be used in Autographic or standard cameras, but of course the Autographic feature requires an Autographic camera loaded with Autographic film. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $45.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Folding Brownie Pocket No.2A camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Brownie Pocket No.2A1910-1915 201723.00The Kodak No. 2A Folding Pocket Brownie is an early folding camera introduced by Eastman Kodak Company in 1910 at a price of $7 (about $170 in today’s money). The No. 2A is designed for the now defunct 116 film format which is very similar to 616 but with wider spool flanges. While we may think it’s a bit strange for Kodak to name this brick-sized camera a “Pocket” Brownie, it was considerably more portable than many of its contemporaries. To unfold the camera, a hidden button located between the hand strap lugs on the top plate must be pressed to release the lens. Once the camera is unfolded, set the focus distance by adjusting the focus tab on the user’s right side of the lens rail and pull the lens out to align with the tab. The viewfinder is set for landscape orientation by default but can easily be rotated 90 degrees for portraits. The aperture of the Brownie’s simple meniscus lens has four settings that can be selected by sliding the tab underneath the lens: “1” is f/8.8, “2” is f/11, “3” is about f/14, and “4” is f/16. The Brownie Automatic shutter has only three settings which can be set by sliding a similar tab above the lens: “I” (about 1/25 seconds), Bulb, and Time. This info was gleaned from Vintage Camera lab. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $35.00 in 2017.
Kodak Eastman: Folding Cartridge Hawk-Eye No.2A Model B camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Cartridge Hawk-Eye No.2A Model B1926-1934 201716.00The No 2A Folding Cartridge Hawk-Eye model B was made from 1926 to 1934 and used 116 Film. The Kodak 116 film cartridge came in two sizes. One had 12 exposures and cost 60 cents in 1926 and 6 exposures for 30 cents. The camera had four aperture settings numbered 1 (listed as US 8 or f11.13), 2 (listed as US 16 or f16), 3 (listed US 32 or f22.6), and 4 (listed US 64 or f32). The Kodex lens assembly shutter speeds are T (timed), B (bulb), 1/25 of a second, and 1/50 of a second. The cameras viewfinder is mounted to the top of the lens assembly and can be set for landscape or portrait position. On the fold down slid bed are three markings for focus distances. One marked 8 feet or 2.5 meters, fixed 25 feet or 7.62 meters, and 100 feet or 30 meters. The 100 or 30 meter setting is also the infinity setting. The other features of the camera are a cable release socket for a shutter plunger, a foot for setting the camera on a table top for portraits, small red window in the back of the camera for frame counting, Winding key, leather carry handle, and two tripod sockets. Adding or removing film from the camera involved removal of the works of camera to reveal the casing and the film spools at either end. Buying this camera new entitled the buyer to receive 6 months of “Kodakery”, if they simply filled out a postcard provided. Kodakery was a magazine published by Kodak that helped you take better pictures. The camera Pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $60.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Folding Pocket No.3 Mod C4 camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Pocket No.3 Mod C4c1907-1915  201515.00The No. 3 Folding Pocket Kodak Camera was manufactured by the Eastman Kodak company from 1900 to 1915. This camera had the most model variations of any Kodak camera made. The early models A, B & C produced through 1903 had the front lens and shutter enclosed and covered in leather, later models had metal stationary or rising front. The No. 3 Folding Pocket Kodak Camera Models included A, AB, AB-EX, ABX, B, B-2, B-3, B-4, C, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, D, E, E-2, E-3, E-4, F, G, and H. Constructed of aluminum and covered in seal grain leather. It took 12 images 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 inch size on No. 118 film. The cameras original list price was $17.50 in 1900 to $68.00 in 1914 with the model H. The C-4 pictured here has a patent dated November 6, 1906 on the inside of the back cover. The camera had to be introduced after that date sometime in 1907 or 1908. The F.P.K Automatic shutter has a manual release as well as one pneumatic release piston on the left side of the shutter lens assembly if looking at the front of the camera. The lens is a Bausch & Lomb Optical Company Rapid Rectilinear, with a 6 1/2 inch focal length, maximum aperture of US 4 and stops to US 128. The waist-level viewfinder can be rotated 90 degrees so it can be used to take portrait format photographs. The camera also has two tripod sockets allowing either vertical and horizontal time exposures or the use of glass plates. Although the No. 3 Folding Pocket Kodak was marketed as a camera for family photography, it was also suitable for the more 'serious' amateur photographer. One important accessory is the plate back. It replaced the roll film back so photos could be taken on glass plates. Glass plates had some advantages over roll film. They were perfectly flat (resulting in sharper images), they could be developed separately, the negatives didn't curl when dry, they were cheaper, and the image could be composed plus focused on a ground glass. Using glass plates had some disadvantages also like they were heavy, could break, taking a photo was cumbersome, and you had to place the camera on a flat surface using one of the metal foot supports provided or you needed a tripod to utilize this option.
Kodak Eastman: Folding Pocket No.3A Mod B2 camera  Kodak Eastman: Folding Pocket No.3A Mod B21903-1915 201915.00The camera was constructed as a vertical format folding camera for postcard-sized (3¼×5½ inch) pictures on 122 roll film (introduced for this camera) and glass plates. A waist-high reflecting finder fitted to the lens shutter assembly is standard on all models. The sequence of models runs in the following series: Model A, B, B2, B3, and B4 plus C all were produced from 1903 - 1915. Model B5 was produced from 1903 to 1912. Early variants were expensive and had, for example, a combination of Kodak Automatic shutter and Rapid Rectilinear lens of Bausch & Lomb. Later moderately priced variants got the Ball Bearing Shutter. Both shutters worked with a pneumatic remote operation or released by a lever. A glass plate adapter was available for the camera. A later expensive variant had a Compound shutter with Zeiss Kodak Anastigmat. As mentioned above a glass plate adapter with a ground glass focusing screen, available as an extra cost accessory, permitted the taking of photographs on glass plates. Eastman Kodak called this accessory the Combination Back. The Kodak catalog price of the back was three dollars and fifty cents. Double plate holders were priced at one dollar each. When introduced, the 3A FPK, fitted with Kodak's top-of-the-line lens plus shutter was priced as high as $78 US dollars. Seventy-eight 1903 dollars placed the 3A FPK in Kodak's top pricing tier and worth $2,924.39 in today’s dollars. The FPK shutter on the model B2 has a 6 1/2 inch focal length, a maximum aperture of US 4 and stops to US 128. The one-speed shutter is about 1/60 of a second and can be set to Timed, Bulb, plus Instant for the pneumatic or lever shutter release. The 3A FPK has a novel quick focusing aid. On the camera bed, opposite the focusing scale, is a metal slide that can be set to various distances. Once this slide is set and engaged, the camera front can be pulled along the track until it comes to a stop. The camera will now be focused on the preset distance. Some references for this information are Scott’s Photographica Collection, Collectiblend, and Camerapedia Fandom. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $45.00 in 2019.

Kodak Eastman: Handle camera  Kodak Eastman: Handle1977-1979 20208.00The Kodak Handle was produced during Kodak’s brief and ultimately doomed attempt at instant film. Polaroid took Kodak to court for patent infringement in 1981 in spite of some crucial differences in Kodak’s approach to instant film and instant cameras and eventually Polaroid won. Defeated, Kodak was ordered to cease production of all instant film and related products (including the Handle) as well as pay Polaroid $925 million and that was on top of reimbursing customers that had purchased that line of cameras. Both companies have faded into the background.
Although the Handle’s exposure is automatically controlled via an electric eye located above the lens, there’s still a rudimentary exposure compensation dial on the front barrel. Also on the front of the barrel is a battery test button located in the corner which activates a red light on the top of the nose. Just behind the battery test light is a socket for flash bulbs and on the side of the barrel is the blue shutter release button for the electronic shutter. After making an exposure, a black winder that folds out of the side is used to press the frame between two rollers starting the developing proses. This action also advanced you to the next frame, a pleasantly mechanical feature to an otherwise electronic camera. The camera used Kodak PR-10/PR-144 cartridge plus Spectra film and Size J 7K67-BPK J type/4LR61 six volt alkaline battery still being sold for home medical equipment. The camera sold for about $40.00 when new in 1977 and could be fitted with a Kodak Instant Flash Model A attachment. Other features are a 100mm f/12.7 lens, eye level optical viewfinder, print number view window in the back cover, and 2 second to 1/300 of a second shutter speeds. A version was also sold as the Kodak Happy Times (Coca-Cola) Camera with face plate, name plate, and coloring to promote Coca-Cola. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2020.
Kodak Eastman: Handle 2 camera  Kodak Eastman: Handle 21979-1981 20205.00Although the Handle 2’s exposure is automatically controlled via an electric eye located above the lens, there’s still a rudimentary exposure compensation dial on the front barrel. Missing on the front of the barrel is a battery test button that was located in the corner of the faceplate on the Handle and this activated a red light on the top of the nose. This battery test button and the Handle 2’s metal (plastic on the handle) shutter release was the only differences between the Handle and Handle 2. On the top of the lens assembly is a socket for adding a flash attachment and on the side of the barrel is the chromed metal shutter release button for the electronic shutter. After making an exposure, a black winder that folds out of the side is used to press the frame between two rollers, (just like the Polaroid), starting the developing proses. This action also advanced you to the next frame, a mechanical feature to an otherwise electronic camera. The camera used Kodak PR-10/PR-144 cartridge plus Spectra film and Size J 7K67-BPK J type/4LR61 six volt alkaline battery still being sold for home medical equipment. The camera sold for about $40.00 (about $150 today) when new in 1979 (production stopped in 1981) and could be fitted with a Kodak Instant Flash Model A attachment. Other features are a 100mm f/12.7 lens, eye level optical viewfinder, print number view window in the back cover, and 2 second to 1/300 of a second shutter speeds. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2020.
The Kodak Handle was produced during Kodak’s brief and ultimately doomed attempt at instant film. Polaroid took Kodak to court for patent infringement in 1981 and, (in spite of some crucial differences in Kodak’s approach to instant film and instant cameras), Polaroid eventually won the suit. Defeated, Kodak was ordered to cease production of all instant film and related products (including the Handle) as well as pay Polaroid $925 million (around $1.5 billion in today’s money).

These are Kodisk lens attachments were listed under Kodik attachments #320. The camera listed for Less than $18.00 in 1963 and if you were wondering where the Hawkeye name came from, here is the explanation. The Boston Camera Company was the original owner of the Hawk-Eye camera until the Blair Camera Company bought them in 1890. Hawk-Eye cameras then changed hands again in 1907 when Eastman Kodak bought Blair which was then changed into a division of Kodak called the Blair Camera Division after the plant was relocated to Rochester, NY. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $8.00 in 2020.

Magicube’s used mechanically triggered pyrotechnic detonators for each bulb, an improvement over flashcubes that needed batteries stored in the camera. Instamatics with Magicube sockets were denoted by an "X" in the model number (e.g. X-15, X, or 55X). The Hawkeye Instamatic X was introduced in 1971 and production was discontinued in 1978. It is a simple camera with a single action film advance lever, Plastic lens, optical viewfinder, shutter release lever, auto advancing Magicube socket, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket.

Kodak Eastman: Instamatic 154 camera  Kodak Eastman: Instamatic 1541965-1969 20174.00Very similar to the Instamatic 104, but with the addition of a clockwork motor wind. The "cocked" shutter button is not a fault, but a feature of the design. The camera was produced between 1965 and 1969. The lens is an f/11, 43mm and the shutter speeds are 1/40 of a second to 1/90 of a second. The winder is gone up while turning the enormous button located on the higher cap of the camera. Then, the clockwork ensures the advance of film and the rotation of flashcube after each release. It also makes it possible automatically to bring film to the frame 1 when the cartridge is in place and to entirely roll up film after the last snapshot. Only one spring makes it possible to advance 12 frames. The camera uses the 126 cartridge film to produce a picture size of 28 x 28 mm. The original list price (USD) was $30.00 in 1965.

Kodak Eastman: Instamatic 814 camera  Kodak Eastman: Instamatic 8141968-1970 20166.00This camera is similar in specification to the Instamatic 804 but the automatic exposure on this camera is provided by a CdS cell rather than the selenium cell of the 804. Although this makes the system more responsive in low-light situations, it is also dependent on batteries, whereas the selenium cell is not. A small button is fitted below the viewfinder, adjacent to the lens, which is used for testing the battery and the "Use Flash" lamp in the viewfinder doubles as a battery confirmation. Flash is provided by flashcube socket that turns with each shutter release. The camera has an Ektanar f/2.8 38mm lens that contains thorium oxide and is, in fact, radioactive (one of many Kodak lenses from the 40's, 50's, and 60's that share this attribute). The shutter has speeds 1/60 of a second, 1/125 of a second, 1/250 of a second, and B that are set with a dial on the front of the camera. The camera also has an optical viewfinder, rangefinder, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, strap attach points, frame view window on the back cover, and spring motor film advance that is wound by pulling on a long nylon strap that rewinds into the camera's bottom. The camera was introduced in 1968 and was produced till 1970. It used the 126 cassette film cartridge and the camera list price at the time was $139.50 in the US. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.

Kodak Eastman: Instamatic S-10 camera  Kodak Eastman: Instamatic S-101967-1970  20179.50The S-10 is a compact snapshot camera with a retractable housing for the Kodar f/9.5 35mm lens. Flash is provided by flashcubes and the film is advanced by the knob on the right-hand end of the body that also turns the flash cube to the next position. The camera has 1/40 of a second and 1/125 of a second shutter speeds and the lower of the two shutter speeds is only available when a flashcube is fitted, the fitting of a used cube is the recommended means of obtaining exposure in less than sunny conditions. The rather obvious shutter release also retracts when the lens housing is pushed home in the down position flush to the camera. The S-10 is one of the few Instamatics with an electronic shutter powered by two 1.55 volt EPX825 (S825PX, PX825, KA825, LR53, or BLR53) batteries. The battery cage will not release and it cannot be replace with the lens housing extended because of a contactor that contracts when the housing is depressed effectively turning of the camera. The shutter is somewhat difficult to release with no film and will not release with the back cover opened. The film activates the shutter via the spring post that enters a hole in the 126 film at each frame. The Instamatic S-10 was introduced in 1967 and discontinued in 1970. The camera uses the 126 cartridge film introduced by Kodak in 1963 to produce a 28 by 28mm picture size. The original manufacturers suggested list price in 1963 was $27.50. Some of the information here was gleaned from The Kodak Classics site. The camera pictured here is in condition and worth $ in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Instamatic X-15 camera  Kodak Eastman: Instamatic X-151970-1976 20173.00This is a truly nice, lightweight camera to use, and the last of the US Instamatics. The camera uses 126 film and was manufactured from 1970 to 1976. It has an f/11, 43 mm plastic, single element, meniscus lens that is fixed focused from 4 feet to infinity. The camera produces a 28x28mm image nominal. The shutter speeds are 1/90 of a second normal and drops down to 1/45 of second with a flash. The camera can use 100, 200, and 400 ASA film on a clear and sunny day plus indoors with the flash. The flash range is 4 feet to 7 feet with regular Magicube. Magicube flash cubes require no batteries so the camera is not equipped with them. The camera also has a standard 1/4 inch by 20 threads per inch tripod socket in the bottom and a direct, and an optical bright line with used flash indicator viewfinder. The camera allows you to insert a used flash cube to get lower shutter speed for shade shots with tripod. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Instamatic X-90 camera  Kodak Eastman: Instamatic X-901970-1973 20207.00The X-90 was produced by Kodak (Rochester, NY, USA) from July of 1970 to August of 1973. Whilst most Instamatics were simple "snapshot" cameras, made of plastic with very few, or no, adjustments, the range extended through designs with metal chassis, light meters or automatic exposure, rangefinders and even an SLR with interchangeable lenses. There were also add-ons such as tele-converter lenses and viewfinders. The X-90 is a rangefinder model with a spring motor frame advance and shutter release. The camera comes with a metal pull ribbon with a tab accessed at the bottom of the camera to wind the spring. It is pull like in a talking doll but you pull it out multiple times till the camera is wound and good for 20 exposures plus leading and trailing exposure. The X-90 uses 126 cartridge film with a whole every frame to stop the film advance and load the shutter. The camera has a Kodak Ektar 38mm f/2.8 lens and shutter speeds of 1/60, 1/125, and 1/250 of a second plus B. It also has 1/30 of a second set by exposure control with 1/40 of a second for flash (this is set automatically when you insert a flash Magicube). The viewfinder is an optical projected view frame type with parallax marks for 5 feet with illuminated signals for insufficient light plus used flashcube. The focusing range is 3 feet to infinity and the lens opening is set automatically by the electric eye, the ASA is set by the 126 film cartridge, and these are powered by a PX-30 (Now the PX30-L lithium replacement for the mercury PX30) battery. The camera has a test button for the battery on the front, when pressed a green light will appear in the rangefinder window (middle front) if the battery is good. The camera dimensions are 8.8 × 13.2 × 6.1 cm (3 7/16 × 5 3/16 × 2 3/8 inch) and weighs about 2.5 pounds. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Jiffy Kodak Six-20 Series II camera  Kodak Eastman: Jiffy Kodak Six-20 Series II1937-1948 202010.00The camera used 620 roll film that produced a picture size of 6x9cm. The engraving on the back cover opening catch reads Six 20, Jiffy Kodak, Series II, and Made in USA by Eastman Kodak Co. Rochester, N.Y... The camera has a Twindar 105mm lens with two aperture settings of f/8, f/11 (some cameras have f/16 also) that set by a pull-out tab on the left of the front plate of the shutter/lens assembly. The Jiffy Six 20 has a turning focus ring surrounding the lens with a setting of 5 to 10 feet and a setting of 10 feet to infinity (not very precise with no stopping points). It also has a simple spring rotary one speed shutter of 1/50 of a second, and settings of I (Instant) plus T (time) with a lever on the top of the shutter/lens assembly. The camera has two small waist high reflecting bright viewfinders, one for portrait and one for landscape mounted on the pop-out shutter/lens assembly. The Kodak Jiffy Six 20 Series II is a single extension, strut folding, self-opening Bellows camera. It has a silver button on the right side of the camera that you press to spring open, pressing the face plate/shutter/lens assembly will close the camera. The back of the camera has a small cover that is hinged with a latch on top and when opened reveals a red window to view the frame number on the film backing. It also has a slide release on the top of the camera to open the film compartment.

The Jiffy also has a Camera leg that swivels for vertical and a smaller leg attached to the larger one for horizontal table top standing on the back of the shutter/lens assembly. The body and shutter/lens assembly is made of metal with a leatherette covering weighing in at 753g. The camera was introduced in 1937 and discontinued in 1948. The suggested retail original price was $9.00. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Kodak 35 camera  Kodak Eastman: Kodak 351938-1948 201712.00Speculation is that the unusual external RF gearing is a result of a rush to market to compete with the then-popular Argus rangefinders. Basically they took their handsome Bakelite-and-steel Kodak 35 and put an external rangefinder mechanism on it to allow it to focus instead of merely having a pop-up viewfinder. The back comes off just like on an Argus c-four (literally - it even has the same twist-lock as the c-four). The shutter release is a lever on the front next to the RF focus wheel instead of on top. Once you get used to that odd placement it gets pretty quick to focus and shoot. It's also a bit front heavy and doesn't weigh well in the hands (but then, that's somewhat true of the c-four as well). The camera was available with either a Kodak Anastigmat Special lens or an upgraded Anastar lens as found on its contemporary the Reflex II but the one pictured has the former. The Kodak 35 with the Anastigmat Special f/3.5 lens and the Kodamatic shutter was produced from 1940 to 1948. The camera with the Kodak Anastigmat Special f/3.5 lens and the Flash Kodamatic shutter was produced from 1946 to 1948. The Kodak 35 with the Kodak Anastar f/3.5 lens and the Flash Kodamatic shutter was produced from 1947 to 1948. The focal range is 4 feet to infinity and the shutter speeds are T, B, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, and 1/200 of a second. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Kodak KB 10 camera  Kodak Eastman: Kodak KB 101997  20162.00The Kodak KB 10 introduced in 1997, was made by Kodak's Mexican plant. It is a simple point-and-shoot camera. It has a 2-element aspherical 30mm f/8.0 fix-focus lens, an optical viewfinder and a built-in flash. It looks like a modern compact camera but is just a primitive viewfinder camera, with no focusing and a flash that could not be switched off. The focus range is 4 foot (1.2m) to infinity and uses two AA 1.5 volt alkaline batteries. The camera is set up to work best with ISO 400 speed film. Other cameras of the Kodak KB series were derived from the KB 10. The camera pictured above is in good condition with some corrosion in the battery compartment and worth $5.00 in 2016.

Kodak Eastman: Kodak Kodamatic 960 camera  Kodak Eastman: Kodak Kodamatic 9601982 20207.00 This is a viewfinder instant camera produced by Kodak from 1982-1986. It used Kodamatic Instant Film, and originally cost $77.95 and at the end of its sales it sold for $29.95. The camera used Kodak HS144 Instant film no longer available. The shutter is Electronic and it has speeds of 1/15 of a second to 1/250 of a second. The camera also has a fixed 100mm f/12.8 lens and has a built in flash unit. The camera pictured her is in good condition and worth $10.00 in 2020.
In 1976, Polaroid’s only great competitor, Eastman Kodak, launched its own line of instant cameras. Kodak’s lawyers and engineers believed that they’d dodged and weaved their way around Polaroid’s patents; Polaroid emphatically disagreed, and a week later sued. After a 14-year legal battle, in 1991 Kodak was finally ordered to pay Polaroid a total of $909 million, $925 million with interest. Kodak had to write a check for the largest settlement ever paid out in a patent trial and Judge Rya Sobel, in a serious rebuke, barred the company from the instant-photo business altogether. Owing to a class-action suit, Kodak had to buy back all the cameras for which it could no longer supply film. Kodak had already stopped all production in 1986.
Kodak Eastman: Kodak Power Flash camera  Kodak Eastman: Kodak Power Flash  20191.00The Kodak HD Power Flash single use camera comes loaded with Max 800 ASA/ISO film. This is a snapshot camera where you fire away as there are no controls other than to wind the film to the next exposure and turn on the flash if necessary. It’s also very small and lightweight, and will fit in a shirt pocket! It costs between $6 and $9 each depending on whether you buy a single camera, or a multi pack. The Power Flash comes in a cardboard box with the camera sealed in a foil wrapper with no instructions but it does have a battery for the flash. It has a fixed focus two element plastic lens, and uses a curved film gate for further corrections. The approximate focal length is between 25-28mm and the approximate fixed aperture is F/16. The fixed shutter speed averages about 1/100 of a second and the flash charge time is about 15 seconds with a range of 4 to 14.5 feet (1.2 to 4.5m). You get 24 exposures on the Max800 film but can yield up to 27. It is possible to re-load the film and reset the exposure counter by opening the film door at the bottom of the camera but you will need to address the stickers/labels hiding seams, modify the new film canister, and hope the battery lasts so not a good idea. The cameras were launched in 2008 and are still sold today. Most of the information here was gleaned from the “Photo Jottings” site review posted in 2017. The camera pictured above was produced about 2010 and has an expiration date of September 2013. It has 23 exposures left and worth about $1.00 in 2019. This is the last entry of a single use camera I will be entering or saving (12/20/2019).
Kodak Eastman: Kodak XL 320 camera  Kodak Eastman: Kodak XL 320  20233.00The Kodak XL320 Our Gang movie camera was marketed from 1978 when introduced until 1981. It used the silent super 8 type G 160 film cartridge and has a Kodak Ektar f: 1.2 F: 9 mm fixed focusing lens. The camera has auto exposure control for 160 ASA film only and shoots at 18 frames per second. The camera also has a ¼” 20 thread tripod socket and a film counter that counts down from 1 to 0 in 1/4s. It operates by use of a DC micro motor that uses 4 alkaline AA batteries stored in a side compartment. The shutter button can be locked for ease of use and the view finder emulates the degree view of the lens. This camera is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2023.

Kodak Eastman: Mickey-Matic camera  Kodak Eastman: Mickey-Matic1988 20212.00Kodak released two cameras under the Mickey-Matic name, themed around Mickey Mouse. One of these was introduced in 1988, and is very similar to the Kodak Gimini, Kodak Winner, Kodak Trimlite Instamatic 18, Kodak Kids Camera, My First Camera, and the abortive Kodak Galactic. It takes still available 110 film cartridges. Not to be confused with the Mick-A-Matic camera, which is a non-Kodak camera for the 126 film cartridge format. Children\'s cameras for the 110 and 126 formats were relatively common, due to their ease of loading. The Mickey-Matic came in two colors of pink plus blue and they have a Mickey Mouse sticker with Disney printed on it over the viewfinder. The camera also has a Flip-Flash socket on top and came with a handy braded string type wrist strap. The Flip-Flash requires no batteries and automatically uses the next forward facing flash bulb. The shutter speed is 1/90 of a second with or without a Flip-Flash plugged in. The lens is a 25mm fixed focus f/11 and has a focus range of 5ft to infinity. The camera was sold in a blister pack with a roll of 110 ISO 200 Kodacolor film, a wrist strap, the camera, instructions, and a coupon mail-in offer of a limited-edition ceramic frame featuring Mickey Mouse for the low price of $4.49. This original Mickey-Matic sold for about $12.99 in 1988. Disney and Kodak upgraded the 110 Mickey-Matic in 1993 by relabeling the Kodak Star 110 that has a built-in flash unit. This unit needs two alkaline AAA batteries to power the flash and has a 28mm fixed focus f/8 three element lens with a single 1/125 of a second shutter speed. This camera came in black and sold for about $18.99 in 1993 when newly release.
Kodak Eastman: Monitor Six-16 camera  Kodak Eastman: Monitor Six-161939-1948 201823.00The Kodak Monitors were robust folding roll film cameras manufactured by Eastman Kodak from 1939 to 1948. They were available in two different models (both introduced in October of 1939), one using 620 roll film and the other 616 roll film. They were called the Monitor Six-20 and the Monitor Six-16. With the exception of the very rare and fragile Kodak Super Six-20, the Monitors are arguably the most sophisticated American Kodak folders of the 1930s and 1940s. They are solid and very well crafted. The Kodak Monitor six-16 is a viewfinder camera; it lacks a rangefinder. The viewfinder is a surprisingly pleasant to use pop-up unit on the center of the cameras top plate. It has a parallax adjustment that can be varied from infinity to 4 feet. Surprisingly, the cameras also have the older style waist level reflecting finder common on older Kodak folding cameras. All Kodak Monitors feature automatic film spacing, double exposure prevention, and top-plate-mounted accessory shoes and shutter releases. A top-plate-mounted depth of field dial was present on the models featuring the Anastigmat Special lens. The all metal bodies are covered with embossed leather. Flash synchronization was an option from 1946 on. According to Kodak literature, the Monitor Six-16 originally sold for $48.50 USD and the Monitor Six-20 for $66.00 USD ($707 and $960 USD in 2007). Presumably, the Six-20 price was for the more expensive lens (the Anastigmat Special) and except for the dimensional differences for the two film formats, the cameras are identical. Each of the Monitor models came with a choice of lenses. All are in a front-element-focusing mount. The Six-20 had a Kodak Anastigmat f/4.5 f=103 or 105mm and or a Kodak Anastigmat Special f/4.5 f=101mm. The Six-16 had a Kodak Anastigmat f/4.5 126mm or a Kodak Anastigmat Special f/4.5 f=127mm. All are believed to be a four element Tessar type. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $45.00 in 2018.

Kodak Eastman: Party Star camera  Kodak Eastman: Party Star1983-1984 20195.00A Party Star Kodamatic Instant Camera, manufactured by Kodak Limited in 1983 and discontinued in 1984. This camera for taking 'instant' photographs is fitted with an f/2.8, 100mm fixed-focus lens and an electronic shutter - 1/15 of a second to 1/250 of a second. The camera's built-in electronic flash can fire automatically on each exposure if needed and the flash, shutter, and other electric components are powered by four AA batteries in a compartment on the back of the film door. This camera was produced by Kodak for distribution at Tupperware parties that were the big rage at the time. The Party Star is a partial folding camera with rubber billows instead of paper. It also has light to dark slide selector, frame counter that counted down to zero, a large viewfinder, a flash ready light, a flash auto switch, and came with a handy carry strap. Kodak began to manufacture instant cameras in 1977. Polaroid, who had pioneered instant photography in 1948, took legal action. In 1985, after prolonged litigation, judgment went against Kodak who had to discontinue the production of instant cameras and film. This camera pictured above is in good condition. The Party Star Kodamatic label next to the tricolored pyramid is on this camera. The original tag could be sent back to Kodak by the owner so they could get their money back after the lawsuit. The camera sold for $78.00 new and is now worth $10.00 in 2019.
Kodak Eastman: Partytime camera  Kodak Eastman: Partytime1980-1982 20197.00The PartyTime and the Brownie Fiesta instant cameras were identical other than the name. The Fiesta released first in 1979 marketed primarily to the Spanish speaking population. The PartyTime released one year later in all markets and both cameras were discontinued in 1982 with the release of the PartyTime II. The most widely used film in the cameras was the Kodak Instant Color Film PR144-10 and the cameras used a spreader bar chemical dispersal method similar to Polaroids of the era. The PR144-10 film worked in all Kodak cameras that were not marked KODAMATIC and TRIMPRINT. The cameras have an electronic shutter, electronic exposure, plus used disposable flash bars that were all powered by a No539 size J 6-volt battery in a compartment in the back of the camera. The lens and optical viewfinder are made of plastic and about 30mm optically. The cameras also have a light/dark slide adjuster for exposure control and a landscape ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. In 1985 Polaroid won the ongoing legal battle with Kodak and along with a hefty fine, all of Kodak’s instant cameras/film was discontinued. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $5.00 for display or parts.
Kodak Eastman: Partytime 2 camera  Kodak Eastman: Partytime 21982-1984 201910.00The Kodak PartyTime II instant camera was almost identical to the Fiesta and PartyTime. The Fiesta released first in 1979 marketed primarily to the Spanish speaking population. One side of the instruction pamphlet was written in Spanish, turn it over and you had English. The PartyTime released one year later in all markets and both cameras were discontinued in 1982 with the release of the PartyTime II. The most widely used film in the cameras was the Kodak Instant Color Film PR144-10 and the cameras used a spreader bar chemical dispersal method similar to Polaroids of the era. The PR144-10 film worked in all Kodak cameras that were not marked KODAMATIC and TRIMPRINT like the PartyTime II that is marked Kodamatic and used Kodak HS144-10 film. The cameras have an electronic shutter, electronic exposure, plus had a flash bar socket that was all powered by a ((# 539 Eveready) (# 7K67 Duracell)) size J 6 volt battery in a compartment in the back of the camera. The lens and optical viewfinder are made of plastic and about 30mm optically. The cameras also have a light/dark slide adjuster for exposure control and the PartyTime plus Fiesta have a landscape ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket that was dropped on the PartyTime II. In 1985 Polaroid won the ongoing legal battle with Kodak and along with a hefty fine, all of Kodak’s instant cameras/film was discontinued. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 with the bilingual instruction book in 2019.

Kodak Eastman: Pleaser camera  Kodak Eastman: Pleaser1977-1982 20215.00The Kodak Pleaser was an instant Kodak pack film camera introduced in 1977 and discontinued in 1982. The camera shutter and other electronics were powered by a size J six volt alkaline battery that was housed in the bottom of the lens assembly cone and accessed from the outside. The camera did not have a motorized exposed picture ejector but used a manual fold in crank handle to eject the frame and start the development portion. The Pleaser, The Pleaser II, The Handle, The Handle II, EK2, EK20, EK22, and the (Coke) Happy Times were the same camera with different color schemes. The Handle and others had a battery test button that the Pleasure does not have. Other features of the Pleaser are a 100mm f/12.7 lens, eye level optical viewfinder, print number view window in the back cover, rudimentary exposure compensation dial on the front barrel, and 2 second to 1/300 of a second shutter speeds that were set by the camera with some feedback from the exposure compensation dial.

Patent infringement case: 1986 ended Kodak’s instant camera phase after the patent infringement case was won by Polaroid. Polaroid was to be paid $909,000,000 out of the 5.7 billion they sued for. Kodak was also ordered to stop producing all their instant film and instant film cameras. Kodak gave the money back to owners of the cameras after losing to Polaroid but only if you registered the camera, filled out the paper work, and sent in the front name plate and so many of these cameras are without name plate. An estimated 4.3 million owners were registered with the company for compensation since Kodak dropped the product line out of 16.5 million instant cameras Kodak sold over a 10-year period in the United States. The settlement involved four groups of instant cameras made by Kodak with ten cameras in group 1 ($50), fourteen in group 2 ($55), six in group 3 ($60), and nine in group 4 ($70) for a total of 39 cameras and the money was a combination of cash, 1 stock in Kodak, new camera replacement, and or redeemable Kodak coupons.

It does have a used bulb warning that shows up in the viewfinder when appropriate.

Kodak Eastman: Rainbow Hawk-Eye No.2 Mod C camera  Kodak Eastman: Rainbow Hawk-Eye No.2 Mod C1930-1933 201710.00The Rainbow Hawk-eye was based on the Cartridge Hawk-Eye camera, but in a variety of colors, including blue, green, brown, maroon, red and black. Oddly enough, the black seems to be the least common, yet has the least value. In addition to color, they can be found with different grain patterns to the outer covering. The Rainbow Hawk-Eye was available in the two sizes that are common to many of the hawk-Eye line, No. 2 and 2A. The No.2 used 120 film, creating images that are 2-1/4 x 3-1/4 inched. The 2A made 2-1/2 x 4-1/4 inch images on 116 film. To open the camera, you unlatch the two latches, then turn the wind knob while pulling, and it will pull partway out. The back of the camera will then slip off. Both sizes of the Rainbow Hawk-Eye were available in two models, Model B and Model C. The Model B had two viewfinders, the Model C was a simplified version with only one. The Model C is the more common of the two. The Rainbow Hawk-Eye was also produced in Canada. The Hawk-Eye No. 2 model C of 1913 was as is noted a simpler model with just one viewfinder, and no choice of aperture. The camera was reissued in 1930 as anniversary giveaway of Eastman Kodak Co. for children at the age of 12. This special edition came with a round sticker denoting the same and also had paper work plus a box with similar markings. The camera had a standard meniscus lens and a rotary shutter. It is reported that 52,000 of the early cameras were made and much more of the anniversary edition. The camera was produced from 1930 to 1933.

Kodak Eastman: Retina Reflex IV (051) camera  Kodak Eastman: Retina Reflex IV (051)1964-1966 2017100.00 This is a Kodak Retina Reflex IV type 051 35mm Single Lens Reflex camera made by Kodak AG in Stuttgart, West Germany between the years 1964 and 1966. The Retina Reflex series was a continuation of the earlier rangefinder Retina, and shared many of the same parts, including the body, lens mount, and leaf shutter. The leaf shutter in the Retina Reflex would prove to be problematic over the years which prevented them from being considered a serious SLR platform. Despite the unreliable shutter, the Retina Reflex series maintained the high quality standard of earlier Retinas, and included well-built lenses that had excellent optics. The Retina Reflex IV was not only the last Retina Reflex, it was also the last “true” Retina camera, and the last time Kodak would ever build their own analog SLR. The camera has the synchro Compur-X leaf shutter with speeds of 1 second to 1/500 of a second plus B. The camera also has a Gossen selenium cell exposure meter with a match needle visible in viewfinder. The 50mm Schneider-Kreuznach Retina-Xenon f/1.9 coated 6-elements lens was the one that came with the camera and very fine ones can command $90.00 today. The camera has a Retina bayonet mount (front group only) lens mount and a Hot Shoe plus PC socket X sync. The Retina Reflex IV originally sold for $277 USD and over 524,000 were made of the 051. In 1977 an unknown quantity of Retina Reflex IV (051/N) cameras were hand assembled from spare parts at Kodak A.G. in Germany. The only difference was the lack of a serial number on top of the pentaprism and the body number is embossed on the leather of the back cover rather than printed in the film compartment. The N stands for New. Some of this information was gathered from the mikeeckman.com web site, Wikipedia, and McKeown’s Price Guide. The camera pictured her is in Poor condition due to shutter reliability. The camera has three lenses with it worth $80.00 (50mm), $20.00 (35mm), and $30.00 (135mm). The camera is worth $10.00 for parts in 2017.
Kodak Eastman: S 100 EF Kodak camera  Kodak Eastman: S 100 EF Kodak1988-1993  20164.00This camera was introduced in 1988 and discontinued in 1993. From the Kodak S-series point-and-shoot line, the S100 featured a (plastic?) 35mm f/4.5 lens and 3 aperture settings. The camera required 2 AA batteries to power the flash but was otherwise a manual camera. The aperture was set by way of either the "film speed" switch (100/200 or 400) or by the flash switch. The smallest aperture was used with the film speed switch set to "400" and the middle aperture setting was used when the switch was set to "100/200." The aperture was the most open (f/4.5) only when the flash switch was enabled. However, if the photographer removed the batteries, the camera could still be used with the flash switch enabled, thus giving 3 different aperture levels. The camera also has a built in lens cover that locks the shutter button when closed, a frame counter, optical viewfinder, right thumb film advance wheel, fold down rewind crank that pulls up to release the film, rewind film release button on the bottom of the camera body, flash read light, and a film view window in the back cover. The camera was made in Taiwan R.O.C. (Republic of China) and distributed by Eastman Kodak Company out of Rochester New York.

Kodak Eastman: Startech camera  Kodak Eastman: Startech1959 201816.00The Startech is a specialized version of the Brownie Starflash supplied with two close-up lenses, red marked 4-8 inches and green marked 10-16 inches, as are the aperture settings on the camera. They used the Starflash body and just plugged the external fash ports. The left-hand side of the body shows painted metal plugs that have the shutter electrically connected to them on the inside of the camera. To facilitate the calculation of the distance, a chain (not with USA kit) with three colors (metal, red, green) was attached to the camera and was to be tended by the photographer, between the camera and the subject. The color of the chain in contact with the object determined the cap to install. A metal framework placed under the camera made it possible to maintain the minimum distance between the lens and the object (not with the USA kit) and facilitated framing. The lens apertures are very small with f27 and f64 to achieve a depth of field at close-up distances and a correct exposure level for the short working distance of the flash unit. The USA kit came with a camera with a built-in flash unit and attachable flash shield. Two color-coded close-up lenses, two AA batteries, one roll of 127 Kodak Ektachrome film, and 12 M-2 flashbulbs. Also, a cardboard easel (miniature studio) is included along with instructions for use of the camera. This Flashtech was introduced in 1959, two years after the Brownie Starflash. One of the other differences from the Starflash is that the flash reflector on the Startech is a dull grey, not the reflective mirror of the Starflash. Another difference is that the Startech exists only in white. The camera set pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2018.
Kodak Eastman: Stereo-Kodak 35 (brown) camera  Kodak Eastman: Stereo-Kodak 35 (brown)1954-1959 202040.00Seton Rochwite was a camera hobbyist who began designing and building his own stereo cameras in 1929. In 1938, he began work on one that would be suitable for commercial manufacture; he built the first prototype in 1940. He brought it to the David White Company of Milwaukee who, interested in the design, hired him in 1943. The company began advertising the "Stereo Realist" in photography magazines in 1945, although it would not end up being produced until late 1947. The Stereo Realist system proved so popular that several companies, such as Revere, Bell and Howell, Three Dimension Company (TDC) and Kodak came out with their own cameras using the same format. The Kodak Stereo Camera in particular, which was both less expensive and easier to use, might have outsold the Realist, had it been released prior to the end of 1954.
The Kodak Stereo Camera was a 35mm film stereo camera produced between 1954 and 1959. Similar to the Stereo Realist, the camera employed two lenses to take twin shots of scenes, which could then be viewed in dedicated image viewers. The lenses supported adjustable apertures and variable shutter speeds. The camera had a reputation for being easy to use, and sold approximately 100,000 units during the time it was produced. The camera has self-cocking shutter with double exposure prevention which could be overridden by the manual shutter cocking lever located on the bottom of the camera, a fold down rewind crank handle, optical viewfinder directly between the two taking lenses (A spirit level was visible in the view finder making it easier to avoid camera tilt, one of the pitfalls of stereo photography), a frame counter that counted down, shutter speeds of 1/25 of a second to 1/200 of a second plus B, f stop numbers of 3.5 to 22, focusing distances of 4 feet (1.2m) to infinity, and a bayonet type flash connector. By the mid to late 1950s the public's fascination with stereo imaging was fading, and by 1960 the White Stereo Realist was the only stereo camera of the 1950s era that was still manufactured. Realist production limped on at much-reduced numbers throughout the 1960s and finally ceased in 1971. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $110.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Tele-Ektralite 20 camera  Kodak Eastman: Tele-Ektralite 201979-1981 20172.00The Kodak Tele-Ektralite 20 is a 110 cartridge film camera. It featured "normal" and "tele" mode, and a built-in flash. It was made in Canada, introduced in 1979 and discontinued in 1981. The camera has a 22mm and 44mm f/9.5 lens plus a 2 speed shutter. The lower of the two shutter speeds is only available when the flash is being used. The built in flash on this Canadian-made dual-lens camera normally folds flush with the end of the camera when off, only flipping out when needed. When the lens is changed from its 'norm' setting of 22mm to the 'tele' setting of 44mm, the Brightline viewfinder changes in magnification to match the lens. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price in 1979 was $58.00. The camera also has a view window in the back cover to view ASA plus frame count, and it is the cover release. By putting your finger in the window opening and sliding it in the down position the cover opens. The camera does not have a tripod mount but does have a flash ready light. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $1.00 for parts in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Tele-Instamatic 608 camera  Kodak Eastman: Tele-Instamatic 6081975-1979 20178.00The Tele-Instamatic 608 has a 25mm (f11) and 43mm (f11) lenses. One of the first cameras to let you choose between a normal and a telephoto lens with a flick of the finger. This is a fixed focus, fixed exposure camera introduced in 1975 and discontinued in 1979. It has a depth-of-field from 5 feet to infinity (25mm) and 6 feet to infinity (43mm). It also has shutter speeds of 1/125 of a second (1/45 of a second for flash), flip-flash socket, and a spring-loaded lens cover/viewfinder cover (does not lock shutter). It does not have a tripod or cable shutter release socket. Overall size is 2 1/4 x 5 x 1 1/8". The camera originally came with stick-on monogram letters to personalize your new purchase. An extra you could purchase and pictured here is the Kodak “Model A” Ektron Electronic flash unit that fits in the flip-flash socket and uses two AA batteries. This camera pictured here is in Fine condition and with the flash unit worth $20.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Tourist II camera  Kodak Eastman: Tourist II1951-1958  20205.00The Tourist II, introduced in May of 1951, features a redesigned top cover and a new viewfinder, which contains frame lines for the optional 828 roll film adapter. Production was discontinued in July of 1958. The Tourists use 620 film making 8 2¼×3¼ exposures. The use of 828 roll film for 8 28×40mm exposures was an option. The Tourist's most unusual feature is its back; through the use of cleverly engineered latches, it can be opened on the left side, right side, or removed completely. Removing the back allows the use of the multi-format Kodak Tourist Adapter Kit, which consists of: a camera back with red windows for 4 different formats; 2¼×2¼ inch, 2¼×1⅝ inch and 28×40mm masks; 828 roll film supply and take up spool adapters; and viewfinder masks for each of the three additional formats. The Tourists are well made and feature a die cast aluminum body, covered in black Kodadur, a synthetic leather of remarkable durability. All models feature a tripod socket, a lens door mounted shutter release, and eye-level viewfinders. All Tourists feature flash synchronization. The Anaston and Anastar lens models feature cable release sockets on the shutter, front-element focusing, and top mounted accessory shoes; the fixed-focus Kodet lens models lack these features and had smaller viewfinders. Frame spacing and shutter cocking are completely manual. A variety of lens/shutter combinations were available on the Tourists; at the low end, the camera is little more than a folding equivalent of a box camera; at the upper end, the camera is capable of producing professional level results. This is a low end camera with the Kodet lens and the Kodon shutter. The camera pictured above is in poor condition and worth $5.00 for parts in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Trimlite Instamatic 18 camera  Kodak Eastman: Trimlite Instamatic 181975-1979 20201.00This camera offered no exposure adjustments other than different film speed and flash. It is a basic camera with a fixed-focus lens and two shutter speeds of 1/90th of a second (Daylight) and 1/40th of a second (with Flash). The negatives are .5 inch (12.7mm) x .6 inch (15.24mm) much too small to take good photos but the size of the camera makes it easy to put in your pocket. Produced from 1975 to 1979 the camera went the way of 110 film cartridges but film is now available. The camera uses flip-flash bars that plugged in the top and you flip them over to use the other four flash bulbs eight in all without the need of a battery. The camera has an F-stop of f11 and a Fixed Focus (5 feet (1.52m) to infinity) 25mm lens. Other features are the film view window that seconds as a frame counter using the back of the film cartridge, one stroke thumb film advance that loads the shutter, optical bright frame viewfinder, a precise fit carry case with a pocket clip, and you could stick your initials on the back with the included letters and provided area. The camera apparently spawned many similar cameras that emerged later, such as the Kodak Winner and Kodak Gimini, with the others being Kodak Kids Camera, Kodak Mickey-Matic (first model), My First Camera and the abortive Kodak Galactic. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $5.00 in 2020.

Kodak Eastman: Vest Pocket Autographic camera  Kodak Eastman: Vest Pocket Autographic1915-1926  20185.00The Vest Pocket Autographic Kodak was the version advertised in the U.S.A. as the "Soldier's camera" during World War I. It was very successful, selling 1,750,000 units. It was of the compact strut folding type and had the meniscus lens or a U.S.-speed 8 Rapid Rectilinear lens. The camera back had an area through which notes could be written onto the paper backing of the A127 film (A for Autographic) by use of a metal stillest that rested in a holder opposite the hinge of the door to the film paper back. The writing became visible along the border after the film was developed. The "autographic" feature was invented by Henry J. Gaisman and launched in 1914. The autograph film fell from popularity and all renditions of the film were discontinued in 1932. The Vest Pocket Autographic camera can also use regular 127 film. The camera was introduced in 1915 and the last one was made by Kodak in 1926.

Kodak Eastman: Vigilant Six-16 camera  Kodak Eastman: Vigilant Six-161939-1948 201812.00The Kodak Vigilant Junior Six-16 is a folding roll film camera produced from 1939 to 1948. It has a three speed shutter (approximately1/25, 1/50, & 1/100 of a second, plus B- and T-settings) in a DAK shutter assembly with f-stops from f/8.8, f/11, f/16, f/22 and f/32. It produced 2-1/2 x 4-1/4 inch images on 616 roll film. It can have a Kodak No.2 Kodamatic f-4.5 or an Anastigmat f/8.8 lens, both 126mm. The Vigilant 616 is a sturdy, well-designed folding medium-format camera. Manufactured by Canadian Kodak Co. Limited in Toronto, Ontario and offers a variety of aperture and shutter speed combinations to ensure proper exposure. Although originally designed for 116 film, which is no longer manufactured, it works with current 120 film, achieving 6 panoramic exposures per roll. Features include standard ¼” 20 thread tripod mounts for both portrait and landscape orientation, 2 cable-release ports, foldout tabs for level camera placement on any flat surface plus is designed to fold up, protecting the camera and bellows while taking up less space. The camera has a few limitations, but none that prevent it from being highly functional. These limitations are to be expected in any piece of photographic equipment of this era and include the (expected) viewfinders that only approximate composition, fragile and leaking bellows, a failing mechanical timer and no sync port for studio lights or off-camera flash. The camera has one fold-up viewfinder and one angled mirror finder. It weighs 32.9 ounces and its negative size is 63mm x 107mm (2½” x 4¼”). The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.
Kodak Eastman: Vigilant Six-20 camera  Kodak Eastman: Vigilant Six-201939-1949 201915.00The Kodak Vigilant Six-20 medium format camera was manufactured from 1939 to 1949 and originally sold for US $38.00 (about US $670 in 2019). The Vigilant cameras came with one of at least four types of Kodak lenses. Three were Kodak Anastigmats (later called Anastons): the F/4.5 105mm, F/6.3 105mm and F/8.8 100mm. The top of the line Vigilant came with the excellent f/4.5-32 101mm Anastigmat Special (later called Anastar) lens in a Kodak Supermatic shutter with speeds of 1 to 1/400 second plus B&T. There are also several shutter types including the Dakon, Diomatic, Kodamatic, and Supermatic. The Vigilant series shared a common body with the Kodak Monitor series. The main difference was that the Vigilants had a simplified top and completely manual film advance; you needed to watch the small red window in the back of the camera to make sure that you didn't advance past the next number else you risked overlapping exposures or losing a picture. The Vigilant's top plate contained the shutter release, a reverse Galilean viewfinder, the folding bed release, and the film advance knob. Cameras equipped with f/4.5 lenses also had a parallax adjustment on the viewfinder. An old style waist-level reflex viewfinder was located on the lens mount. Most of this information was gleaned from Wikipedia and the Matt Denton site. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.
Kodak Eastman: VR 35 K10 camera  Kodak Eastman: VR 35 K101986-c1990s 20175.00Kodak's VR35-Series was a line of 35mm point-and-shoot cameras, introduced in 1986, marking Kodak's return to making 35mm cameras after a 17 year gap. The range continued until 1993. They had varying degrees of sophistication, ranging from the basic fixed focus models, with one aperture, no built-in flash and manual wind, to models with motor drive, programmed auto exposure and autofocus. Manufacturing sites included Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand and Taiwan. The Vr35 K10 uses a standard 9V battery for the flash and automatic functions. It also has a 35mm f3.5 Ektanar lens, DX-coded film speed with no manual setting, electronic shutter, auto focus, frame counter, lens cover, fill flash switch, film view window in back cover, shutter speeds of 1/8 of a second to 1/500 of a second, 24 x 36mm picture size, rewind fold down crank handle, and a right thumb film advance wheel. The flash is 4 inches above the lens to prevent red eye and flash glare. The camera was made in Japan, introduced in 1986, and discontinued in 1988. The original list price for the US was $130.00 in 1986. The camera picture here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.

Kodak Eastman: Winner Camera camera  Kodak Eastman: Winner Camera1979  20164.00The Kodak Winner was introduced in 1979 for $11.95 and uses 110 film. It is a basic fixed-focus pocket camera, and has a Flipflash socket. A version in red was marked "Kodak Official Sponsor of the 1988 Olympic Games". 110 film is still available so a working example can still be used by those with a case of nostalgia. It is extremely similar to Kodak Gimini, Kodak Trimlite Instamatic 18, Kodak Mickey-Matic (first model), Kodak Kids Camera, and Kodak Galactic. All these cameras use a Flipflash that had four or five flash bulbs on each side facing front. Once one side is used you flip the assembly over for the other side. The flipflash was produced by many of the camera and bulb companies (Agfa, Phillips, Polaroid, Sylvania, and GE to name a few). Another camera (other than using flashcubes) that resembles the line is the Kodak Hawkeye Pocket Instamatic. The Winner camera using 110 film produces a 13 x 17mm picture with a 25mm f11 meniscus lens. The shutter speeds are 1/90 of a second and 1/40 of a second with Flipflash installed in the provided socket. The optimum Flash Distance is 5 to 16 feet with various Flipflash units available. The camera also has a right hand side film advance lever, optical viewfinder, film observation window in the back cover for frame counting, and a handy carry strap. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.

The Kodak Winner is extremely similar to Kodak Gemini, Kodak Trimlite Instamatic 18, Kodak Mickey-Matic (first model), Kodak Kids Camera, and Kodak Galactic. Other than using different flashcubes, it also greatly resembles a Kodak Hawkeye Pocket Instamatic. The original Kodak Winner was introduced in 1979 and sold for $11.95. The Kodak Winner “Official sponsor of the 1988 Olympic Games” camera was announced in 1987 and was packaged with an ISO 200/24 exposure roll of Kodacolor VR-G film. It also came with a mail in offer for a Kodak Winner Olympic watch for $3.99 with a fabric watch band that seconded as a wallet and uses Velcro to attach to the wrist. Now although the original 110 film is still available but out of date you can buy 110 film produced by Lomography for slides and 110 black & white photo film as of 2011. The camera pictured above is in new condition and worth $30.00 in 2018.
Kodak Eastman: World"s Fair Flash Camera camera  Kodak Eastman: World"s Fair Flash Camera1964-1965 20205.00The Kodak World's Fair Flash is a camera for 127 roll film and was released for the 1964/1965 New York World's Fair. It featured a single-speed shutter, and used the 4x4cm picture format. Its original price was $7.95. The camera has a fixed focus lens and Single Speed Rotary shutter. It is similar to the Hawkeye Flashfun and was sold only at the New York World's Fair. The camera had a fixed plastic roof over the lens with the emblem of the World’s Fair and its name on the sticker. The 1964-1965 World’s Fair was the third to be held in New York City. It was held over two six-month periods and showcased American culture and technology. Other features were a built in flash that used the AG-1 flash bulbs, an optical viewfinder, clear plastic escutcheon around the lens, two strap attach points, frame advance knob on the bottom of the camera, a red round window for frame count on the back of the camera, and a battery compartment that housed two AA batteries to power the flash unit. The back of the cameras flash unit has an instructional chart for use of the flash with distances when using Verichrome Pan or color film. It also recommends use of a flash guard that was available for the camera. With Kodak it is always unclear how many were sold but the Fair was very successful so 20,000 or more. By Kodak standards this is a small number. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2020.

Konishiroku (Konica): Baby Pearl cameraKonishiroku (Konica): Baby Pearl cameraKonishiroku (Konica): Baby Pearl camera  Konishiroku (Konica): Baby Pearlc1934-1946 202020.00The Baby Pearl is a vertical folder inspired by the Zeiss Ikon Baby Ikonta, but not a dead copy. It has incurved struts and a folding optical finder. The body edges are either black or chrome finished. The name BABY PEARL is embossed in the leather covering at the front. The film is advanced by a knob at the bottom right, and there are two red windows in the back to control its position. On most cameras, the main release is on the shutter casing and the folding bed release is close to the advance knob, but the last postwar examples have a body release and bed opening button symmetrically placed around the viewfinder. Four different lenses were mounted on the Baby Pearl, all with 50mm focal length and focusing by turning the front element. The Optor f/6.3 and f/4.5 lenses are triplets designed by Konishiroku; they were reputedly manufactured by Asahi Kōgaku (predecessor of Pentax), but their production was perhaps taken back by Konishiroku at some time. The Hexar Ser.1 f/4.5 is a four-element lens, designed and made by Konishiroku, and an f/3.8 version was introduced in June 1937. The Hexar lens option was the more expensive in 1934. The shutter speeds are 1/25, 1/50, and 1/100 of a second plus B. The pop-up optical viewfinder had two lenses and some examples have a hairline cross sight on the viewfinder's front window. The camera was produced from 1934 to 1946, made in Japan, and used 127 roll film. The camera pictured here is in good working condition and worth $25.00 in 2020.

Konishiroku (Konica): Konica Autoreflex T camera  Konishiroku (Konica): Konica Autoreflex T1968-1970 20165.00The Autoreflex T was the first focal plane shutter 35mm SLRs with auto-exposure and TTL metering combined in one body. In Japan it was sold as FTA, in Germany as Revue Autoreflex TTL. It was introduced in 1968 and discontinued in 1970. The AutoReflex line started in 1965 and continued till 1982 with the last of them being the Autoreflex TC. The Autoreflex T is fully mechanical with shutter-priority auto exposure. The batteries (two PX 675 type mercury cells) were only needed for the CdS light meter. The shutter speed range is from 1 second to 1/1000 of a second and B. The camera has a right thumb film advance lever, locking shutter button, ASA plus shutter speed selector knob combination, time delay lever, two flash sockets M plus X, check batteries button, film rewind fold down crank, rewind release button, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, frame counter, and more. There is one rare and special version of this model, known as the Autoreflex W. This is a camera fitted with a special timing back, for use at sporting events. It imprints the time of the exposure on each frame of film. The back is similar in function to the one offered in 1963 on the Konica FS-W, an F/FS mount camera. The camera pictured above has a stuck rewind release button and is listed in Poor condition. In this condition it is worth $5.00 for parts in 2016.

Konishiroku (Konica): Konica C35 camera  Konishiroku (Konica): Konica C351968  201615.00The Konica C35 of 1968 is a 35mm camera and first of a series of four cameras from Konishiroku. The Konica C35 was the first of a number of compact cameras that swept the marketplace in the early seventies. It brought together a number of desirable design strands into one camera, not simply light weight and compact size, but a CdS meter in the lens mount (eliminating worries about filter correction factors), a rangefinder and most importantly of all, the simple operation of "auto only" exposure. The camera was available in black or silver with a 38mm f2.8 four-element Hexanon lens with 46mm filter thread. It also has a coupled rangefinder, self-timer, 3.3ft closest focus, Copal B mat programmed shutter, shutter speeds 1/30 to 1/650 of a second, lever wind, double-exposure prevention, resetting frame counter, bright line finder, and a handy carry strap. The price in Britain £42.15 (£42.75, in April 1970). In Japan, the C35 was nicknamed and advertised by Konishiroku as the Konica C35 "Journey", an ideal travel camera thanks to its compact size. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.

Kowa: Kowa SER camera  Kowa: Kowa SER1965-1970 201920.00The Kowa SER was produced from 1965 to 1970. It is a 35mm SLR camera with a coupled CdS meter. The camera was capable of using ASA 10 to 800 film and has shutter speeds of 1 to 1/500th of a second. The interchangeable lenses (Kowa proprietary mount) have a fully automatic diaphragm and is coupled to the cameras built-in CdS light meter plus shutter. The single action film right thumb advance lever makes it easy to ready yourself for the next shot. When new the camera came with a 6x4 inch 28 page manual, camera strap, and an f2 50mm Kowa SER lens mounted on it with a focus range from 2.5 to infinity (0.76 m). Kowa insisted on using leaf shutters when pretty much every other Japanese maker (and many Germans) were using focal-plane shutters. The big advantage to leaf shutters is that you get flash-sync at all speeds, whereas focal-plane shutters of the 1960s usually topped out at 1/60th or 1/90th of a second. Kowa is a Japanese company, which manufactured cameras from 1954 to 1978. It continued to make binoculars, telescopes and medical optics (among much else), and in 2005 marketed a "spotting scope TD-1" with integrated digital camera, thereby again becoming a camera manufacturer of a sort but in early 2009 this was discontinued also. The camera pictured above is in poor condition and worth $5.00 for the camera and $15.00 for the lens in 2019.
Krasnogorsk: Zorki 4 camera  Krasnogorsk: Zorki 41956-1973  202019.00The Zorki 4 was possibly the most popular of all Zorki cameras, with 1,715,677 cameras made by the KMZ factory in Krasnogorsk, Russia. The Zorki 4 was also the first of the Zorki cameras to be exported in large numbers to the west. Inspired by the screw mount Leica, It is a fully manual camera, and does not have a light meter. When the Zorki 4 rangefinder was introduced in 1956, its contemporaries included the Zorki S, Zorki 2S, FED 2b, Leica M3 (introduced two years before), Leica IIIg, Nikon S2, Canon VT, and Canon L1. The Zorki 4's production run outlasted all of them. When it morphed into the Zorki 4K by 1973, its contemporaries included the FED 4b, Leica M4 and M5, Nikon F2, and Canon F-1 and Canon Canonet QL 17 GIII. The Zorki 4 is basically a Zorki 3S with a self-timer. It retained all of the features and strong points of the 3S. The early bodies have a vulcanite body covering, engraved shutter speeds, and strap lugs. Later bodies have fabric covering and the shutter speeds (1/60 and 1/30 instead of 1/50 and 1/25). Also the later bodies are silk-screened and by the mid-1960s, the strap lugs had disappeared. As with other Soviet-era rangefinders, the shutter speed selector rotates when the shutter is released, and should not be changed until after the shutter has been cocked. If the shutter speed is changed without cocking the shutter first, the setting pin can be broken when the film is advanced. This info was gleaned from Wikipedia with some minor adjustments. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2020.
Kuribayashi (Petri): Petri 2.8 Color Corrected Super camera  Kuribayashi (Petri): Petri 2.8 Color Corrected Super1957-1958  201918.00The Petri 2.8 35mm camera was introduced in 1957 and discontinued in 1958. The Petri 2.8 color corrected was released 1958 at discontinued in 1961. It gets confusing because on the name tag of the 1957 Petri 2.8 is printed “Petri 2.8 Color Corrected Super”. The 1958 camera also has “Petri 2.8 Color Corrected Super” on the name tag but includes “Kuribayashi Camera Industry, Inc. Japan” under that. The words “Kuribayashi Camera Industry, Inc. Pat. Japan” is printed on the top of the 1957 2.8 camera under a Winter/Summer exposure guide. The 1957 Petri 2.8 uses a large font on the word Petri with a capital P and lower case after that on the name tag (Britannic Bold 24pt font(Petri)), whereas the 2.8 Color Corrected font is about a 14pt font and in all caps (PETRI). The 1958 camera (2.8 Color Corrected) has a larger bright-line viewfinder and the Petri name embossed on its top plate. Both cameras use the Kuribayashi A.C. Petri Orikkor 2.8/4.5cm lens and both are coupled rangefinder cameras. The 1957 Petri 2.8 instruction book had “Petri 2.8” only printed on the cover so I will call that camera model the Petri 2.8 and the 1958 model I will call the Petri 2.8 BV (Big Viewfinder). The styling differences between the two cameras force you to separate them. The Petri 1.9 camera has the same problem with the same changes made. There is also the Petri 35 that is the same camera as the Petri 2.8 when it has the Kuribayashi A.C. Petri Orikkor 2.8/4.5cm lens but it comes with a Kuribayashi A.C. Orikkor 2.8/4.5cm lens that dropped Petri from the name on the lens ring. Kuribayashi only made the Petri F2 (2.0) with the smaller viewfinder and it used the Kuribayashi A.C. Petri Orikkor 2.0/4.5cm lens.
Features: The Petri 2.8 can use films of ASA 5 to 800 and has aperture settings of 2.8 to 22. The focus range is 2 feet (60.96 cm) to infinity and shutter speeds are 1 second to 1/300 of a second plus B. The camera also has a PC synchro socket, a cold shoe, Carperu shutter, right thumb single action frame advance lever, frame counter, rewind crank that when pulled up released the back cover, and a small optical viewfinder. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.

Kuribayashi (Petri): Petri 7 S camera  Kuribayashi (Petri): Petri 7 S1962 20187.00The Petri 7s was introduced by Petri in 1963 as a variant of the Petri 7 which was introduced in 1961. The main difference being an improved film advance lever and frame counter. It took 35mm film, had a coupled rangefinder. Production of the 7s ended in after 10 years in 1973. Compared to its predecessor, the 7s is very advanced. It has ATL (around the lens) selenium metering with a match-needle visible both in the viewfinder as well as the top of the camera. From the 7s came the compact Petri Color 35, which was wildly popular when released in 1968. The 7s was available with either a 45mm f1.8 or f2.8 lens and both are coated plus have a 52mm filter thread mount. The shutter is a Petri MVE leaf (in-lens) with speeds up to 1/500 of a second, and the viewfinder used Petri's Green-o-Matic system. It also has a timer on the side of the lens along with a flash setting lever with W and X settings plus PC external flash connection. The retail price in 1963 was about $60.00 to $80.00. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $1.00 for parts in 2018.

KW (KameraWerkstatten): Praktica LTL 3 camera  KW (KameraWerkstatten): Praktica LTL 31975-1978 201525.00KameraWerkstatten Produced the camera under Kombinat VEB Pentacon in Dresden and the responsible constructor was Rolf Noack. The production period went from November 1975 to March 1978 and the number that was produced was 349,919. The shutter is mechanically controlled with a vertical-moving metal-blade focal plane for shutter exposure time. The possible shutter settings are B, 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/15 1/30, 1/60, 1/125, 1/250, 1/500, and 1/1000 of a second. The view finder is a fixed eye-level view finder (Pentaprism) with a Fresnel lens and it has a micro prism range finder for a focusing screen, built-in shutter speed meter mirror with instant-return mirror. The cameras lens mount is an M42x1. The camera also has a mechanical 10 second self-timer, TTL-metering system, X-synchronization (1/125) flash system, accessory shoe at the top of the pentaprism, and uses a Varta V 625 battery. This is the last of the LTL series, and while it lacks some of the refined feel of the MTL3 it predates, it’s a great user and said to be an improvement of the previous LTL. The shutter release is on the front of the camera rather than the top and there is a reminder tab in the viewfinder that pops up to indicate that the shutter needs to be cocked! The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $25.00 in 2015.
KW (KameraWerkstatten): Praktiflex FX camera  KW (KameraWerkstatten): Praktiflex FX1953-1954  201515.00The Praktiflex FX was introduced in 1953 with flash contacts for bulbs (F) and electronic flash (X). The main change was just the name of the camera. The Praktiflex FX was a 35mm SLR camera with a waist-level finder, M42 lens mount, non-instant-return mirror, a removable back and a cloth focal plane shutter. The Praktica FX was The Praktiflex FX's finder is a reflex waist-level finder that shows a horizontally reversed image. As the mirror doesn't return automatically, film must be wound first in order to place the mirror in the viewing position. The focusing screen is a flat ground glass screen on one side and a condenser screen on the other side, providing a very bright image. There is a folding loupe that magnifies the whole screen to aid critical focusing. Despite not having micro prisms nor split image rangefinder, focusing is very easy and effective using just the magnifier. The screen produces remarkable images and watching the screen is more pleasant than the real world, the colors seem more vivid. The finder cover can be used as well as a frame finder or sports finder, but it doesn't allow focusing. Carl Zeiss Jena manufactured an accessory pentaprism finder that allowed eye-level viewing and focusing. Unfortunately, the pentaprism finder produces a smaller and dimmer image and the magnifier can't be used, so it's harder to focus, but as an accessory it is a valuable collectable. The original list price for the Praktifles FX was $139.50 with any of a number of lenses. The camera producer was KW (VEB Kamera-Werke Niedersedlitz) in Niedersedlitz, Dresden, and part of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). The shutter speeds are 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, 500, and B. The speeds are selected by pulling up the outer ring on the shutter speed selector and moving the small black dot to the speed desired. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2015.
Lacon Shinkoh Seiki: Lacon 35 cameraLacon Shinkoh Seiki: Lacon 35 camera  Lacon Shinkoh Seiki: Lacon 35c1954  202016.00This camera was launched in 1954 by Shinano Optical Co., Ltd. Japan and was equipped with Shinanokoki Lacor f3.5 four-element 45mm lens. In the same year the Lacon C (top cover's shape was different) were introduced plus in the next year, Lacon R was introduced which employed a rangefinder. The Lacon is a 35mm with a Shinano leaf-shutter with speeds of 1 second to 1/200 second. The Lacon Camera Co. was likely only a marketing name applied to cameras made for the Lacon name by Shinano. The Lacon line of cameras were a fairly obscure cheaper cameras made by the Shinano Camera Company, who also made the somewhat better known and slightly better quality Shinano Pigeon. The Lacon is a straightforward viewfinder camera without many thrills, but in terms of looks clearly inspired by the Leica screw mount cameras, especially when viewed from above. The single viewfinder window looks oddly out of place in a top housing large enough to accommodate a rangefinder. The functionally of the Lacon was not that different from the Pigeon, both were simple viewfinder cameras with front cell-focusing lens, a leaf shutter with a limited range of speeds and a removable camera back to load film. An early version with a small single viewfinder mounted directly onto the top plate also existed and I think it is known now as the Lacon J and is almost a copy of the Lacon without the Leica look alike top. Other features of the Lacon are a frame counter that counts from 0 to 40, aperture settings of 3.5 to 16, flash socket on the shutter assembly, utility mount bracket, shutter-timer (10 second), rewind release button, rewind knob, focusing from 2.5 feet to infinity, and two ¼ inch 20 thread tripod sockets on the bottom of the camera. The camera pictured here is in poor condition, (the shutter speed adjuster is froze, timer won’t release the shutter, plus the lens is froze at infinity) and worth $10.00 for parts in 2020.

Lifetime: Synchro Flash 120 camera  Lifetime: Synchro Flash 120c1955 201712.00The Synchro Flash 120 uses 120 film for a 6x6cm exposures and it is a box-type camera with an all metal body produced by Lifetime Camera Company in 1955. It has a 110mm f5.6 Zellar lens with two shutter speeds of 1/50 of a second and TIME. The camera also has an optical viewfinder, flash contacts behind the shutter selector, round small red window in the back of the camera for viewing the frame number on the backing of the film, and a handy carry strap connected to the viewfinder. It is extremely difficult to change the film in this camera. You have to remove the front of the camera or the whole lens shutter assembly from the body while pulling up the film advance knob. The Lifetime Camera Company was out of Chicago Illinois and the identical camera was also released under the United States Camera Company name as the Vagabond 120. The Pho-Tak Corporation used the body and lens housing to produce the Traveler 120 with no flash and the Scout 120 with female flash sockets on the side of the lens housing. The Traveler 120 Synchro Flash was also produced with both the posts on top and female flash sockets on the side of the lens housing. The Traveler without flash capability was affectionately or mistakenly known as the “Time Traveler 120” because of the labeling for the pull tab (poorly placed) for timed shutter speed. The Pho-tak Corporation was active from approximately 1948 to 1960 and was connected with United States Camera Company plus the Lifetime Camera Company both based in Chicago, Illinois also. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Both were introduced in 1995 with an ISO equivalent of 84. They have 4MB’s of internal memory and shutter speeds of 1/30 to 1/175 second. In 1995 the manufacturer’s suggested retail price for the Logitech version was $995.00 nearly three times the Kodak. The camera was among the first consumer digital cameras sold. Its features included a 756x504 resolution (
Logitech: Fotoman Plus camera  Logitech: Fotoman Plus1992  201528.00This was the first truly digital camera to be sold on the market. It has a resolution of 320 x 240 and later models of the same camera had 376 x 284 resolution. It produces black and white photos with 256 gray levels and has 1Mb of internal RAM. The lens is a fixed focus f4.5 and the suggested retail in 1990 was $980.00 or £499. The FotoMan digitizes its monochrome images inside the camera. These images are ready to be imported direct from the camera into a personal computer running Microsoft Windows 3.0 or 3.1. The only additional hardware needed is a special cable, supplied with the camera, to connect FotoMan to the serial port of the computer. FotoMan is an important landmark in still camera design because it removes the hitherto important area of mechanics almost entirely. This makes it the first totally digital camera. Unfortunately the resolution of the camera is low and unlikely to help you produce any images of useable professional quality. The camera's monochrome image sensor has only 106,784 pixels (individual basic picture elements) on a CCD chip in an array of 284 by 376 pixels. The picture aspect ratio (height compared to width) is thus 1.32:1, which is virtually identical to that of television with each picture about 100k. Images were imported into the computer using FotoMan software, usually in conjunction with the FotoTouch software which is used to edit and print them and both came with the camera. After establishing connection with the camera, the FotoMan software displays a screen full of small images, reassuringly bounded by sprocket holes reminiscent of 35mm film! This same screen also tells you how much charge there is in the camera battery, using a very clear indicator with a line around an icon of a battery that had a percentage figure, too. Once you have imported your images you have the option to delete them from this same window. One drawback is the need to use the software to turn the flash on and off. The camera only has a shutter button with no on/off switch or flash control. Sensitivity is about ISO200, reduced to ISO25 with the neutral density filter, supplied to prevent overexposure which results in CCD overload in very bright light. The electronic shutter is stated to have a speed range of 40 milliseconds with flash (1/25 second), 1 to 32 milliseconds (1/1000 to 1/30 second) without flash. A built-in flash illuminates subjects within a range of 1.2 to 3 meters. The camera weighs 284 grams (10 ounces) and has an unusual shape. Worth $30.00 in 2015

Lure Camera: Lure camera  Lure Camera: Lurec1973 20185.00The Lure is a little plastic camera for 16mm film which weighed only 1.5 ounces and was produced in the middle 1970s. It contained a roll of unperforated Technicolor film for 12 13×17mm exposures. The whole camera had to be sent to the manufacturer Lure Camera Ltd. for film development, just like 85 years earlier the Kodak No. 1 had to be sent to Kodak. The developed film came back with 3.5×4.5" full-view borderless silk-textured prints. The camera was also marketed as Blick, X2, and Love camera. The carton it came in has instruction labels for opening the carton, for how it operates, what the camera has, and mailing instructions. You advance the film by manually turning the Magicube tower. The frame numbers on the back of the film can be seen through a window in the back of the camera. The carton boasts a high speed fixed focus f/11 lens, optical viewfinder, and double exposure protection. Provided inside the carton was a self-sticking label with spots for a return address with name plus zip-code, a place for 3 first class stamps or airmail stamps, and a partially addressed (Lure Camera LTD P.O. BOX NO) mail to an area. You needed to pick the nearest Lure address near you and 10 were provided, all with P.O. Boxes. Also provided in the carton was an envelope that you had to put a name, address, city, state, and zip on along with $3.99 plus 44 cents for return postage in the form of a money order or check. The envelope states “NO CASH”. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $5.00 in 2018.

Mamiya: Mamiya Auto Lux 35 camera  Mamiya: Mamiya Auto Lux 351963-1967 20185.00The Auto-Lux 35 is a 35mm fixed lens SLR introduced in 1963 by Mamiya. It features a Copal-X leaf shutter with a Mamiya Sekor 48mm f/2.8 3 group, 3 elements lens. The camera has an external selenium metering. This allows for shutter priority auto-exposure although the camera can also meter in manual mode. The camera also has a Bulb setting which is accessible after pressing a switch on lens barrel. The leaf shutter allows flash sync at all shutter speeds. The Mamiya Auto Lux 35 was rebranded in European markets as the Rank Mamiya Auto-Lux 35, Revue Auto-Lux 35, and the Porst Autoflex. The shutter speeds were 1/15 to 1/500 of a second plus B and capable of using ASA 10 to 400 film. The camera also has an X type by PC-sync socket in the front and mount point on camera viewfinder head. The lens filter thread is 40.5mm and the lens minimum focus range is 3 feet or .08m. The camera also has a single action film advance lever, fold down rewind crank handle, recessed rewind release button on the bottom, frame counter, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The last Mamiya Auto Lux 35 in all its iterations was made in 1967. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $3.00 for parts or display in 2018.

Mamiya: Mamiya NC 1000 camera  Mamiya: Mamiya NC 10001978 20205.00Released in 1978, the Mamiya NC1000 was a dramatic departure from the Mamiya SLR's before it. It weighs only 16 oz. (compared to 26, 25 and 24 oz. for the DTL, XTL and MSX/DSX, respectively) and was considered remarkably easy to handle. It had an electronic focal-plane shutter, with speeds from 1 to 1/1000 sec. and a hot shoe mount with 1/60 sec. sync. The meter was a center-weighted CdS cell powered by two MS76 batteries, with the indicator and micro prism split-image visible in the finder. Shutter-priority AE could also be set manually. This series from Mamiya included two cameras: the NC 1000 and NC 1000s. Both had a bayonet mount (CS mount) that was different from other Mamiya bayonet mountings. The NC1000s was released later the same year. Perhaps its most distinctive feature was cosmetic: a pocket holder on the back door that allowed you to keep a film-box end for reference. The NC1000s also allowed for five changes in the focusing screens from the typical rangefinder-spot Fresnel screen to a transparent cross-hair screen. The NC1000s also had a new shutter design at some point of its construction that was claimed to be more stable. There was a name variant of the NC1000, sold by Sears and called the Auto CS 1000MXB in black and Auto CS 1000MX in chrome. Info gleaned from Camerapedia. This camera is missing the threaded batter holder and is worth $2.00 for parts in 2020.

Mamiya: Mamiya ZE camera  Mamiya: Mamiya ZE1980 20205.00The Mamiya Z-Series cameras were the last 35mm SLR's produced by Mamiya. Innovation was still apparent. It was the first Japanese SLR to use an electronic coupling system to transmit information between the camera body and its interchangeable lenses. Previous interactions between lenses and camera bodies had been by mechanical pins, cams or levers. While many manufacturers were reluctant to make changes that would render their lenses obsolete, Mamiya aggressively pursued the new mount configuration. In addition, ergonomics, as applied to the functionality and use of the camera, began to play a stronger role in their design. The Mamiya ZE (left; some were also designated ZE Quartz) was introduced in July 1980. It has a metal, quartz-controlled, focal-plane shutter and a center-weighted photo diode. An aperture-priority AE, exposure can be corrected ± two stops, and a previously-metered exposure can be locked in "AEL" position (same dial as the orange "Auto" button in the picture). It requires four (4) MS76 or equivalent batteries, which are still readily available. The ZE can also be used without batteries. If you set the shutter mode selector to "X" the shutter operates at 1/90 second. Simply use the Sunny 16 Rule to figure the aperture setting for your weather conditions. Most ZE's were solid black, but there is a rare version that used a silver top plate (see picture, below left). A version of the Mamiya ZE, also with a silver top plate, could be found in the USA, rebranded as the Bell & Howell Z. The camera pictured above is missing the battery holder plus ASA set knobs and is worth $2.00 for parts in 2020.

Mamiya: Mamiya ZE-2 Quarz camera  Mamiya: Mamiya ZE-2 Quarz1980 20205.00Introduced in December 1980, the Mamiya ZE-2 continued the quartz-regulated metal focal plane shutter that begun in the ZE camera. Both cameras have automatic exposure with aperture priority and, once it is determined, the aperture setting on both can be locked. The ZE-2 added a shake-prevention warning and a shutter-speed dial, and allowed a manual override (you can't select a shutter speed manually on the ZE). An electronic sensor coupled each lens to the camera through six gold contact points. The sensor automatically selected the slowest hand-held shutter speed possible for that focal length. Like the ZE, the Mamiya ZE-2 requires four (4) MS76 or equivalent batteries. It also uses the same sharp, Mamiya-Sekor E or EF optics that were found in the entire Z-series. However, perhaps because the ZE-2 is seen less often than its ZE cousin, it frequently brings a slightly higher price in auction. The Mamiya ZE-2 was also rebranded and sold in Germany as the Revue AM. The camera pictured here is missing the threaded battery holder and worth $2.00 for parts in 2020.
Mansfield: Skylark camera  Mansfield: Skylarkc1962  201715.00Skylark was the name for no less than four rebadged cameras distributed by Mansfield Industries of Chicago, Illinois. The 1957 Skylark was rebadged from the Argon rangefinder camera which was the export version of the Windsor 35 by Toko Photographic Works. This rangefinder camera featured a 45mm / f1.9 lens, shutter speeds B, 1s to 1/500s. The Mansfield Skylark E, released in 1957 was a Royal 35M by Royal Camera Company, rebadged for Mansfield. Like the 35M, this rangefinder camera had a Tominar 45mm / f1.9-f16 lens, shutter speeds B, 1s to 1/500s with an uncoupled selenium meter. The 1957 Skylark V from the Royal 35P, was a meter less rangefinder camera with a Cimenar 45mm / f1.9-f16 lens, shutter speeds B, 1s to 1/300s. The 1962 Mansfield Skylark was a slightly modified Palmat Automatic by Yamato Optical Company. This last Skylark was a fixed-focus automatic-exposure viewfinder camera with coupled selenium meter, Mantar or Luminor 40mm / f4 lens with shutter speeds B, 1/10 of a second to 1/200 of a second. It does not take a battery, its selenium meter was driven by light alone. Exposure compensation was set by a lever on the numbered scale on the lens, based on an ASA/DIN film guide inset on the camera’s lift-off back. This was the only Skylark that was actually engraved with “Mansfield” as well as the “MI” crest logo seen on the earlier versions. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2017.

Minolta: Hi-matic AF 2 camera  Minolta: Hi-matic AF 21981 201713.00The Minolta Hi-Matic AF2 was one of the first viewfinder cameras for 35mm film with active infrared autofocus when it was launched in 1981 as successor of the Hi-Matic AF. It was one of the last of Minolta's long-lasting Hi-Matic series of quality viewfinder and rangefinder cameras with automatic exposure. In addition to its autofocus the camera has a buzzer which indicates too small object distance or low light. The built-in flash needs two AA-batteries as well as camera operation. The camera has the same kind of lens as most other 1970s Hi-Matics, a four-element construction with focal length 38mm. It has also the typical CdS-meter window inside the filter-thread in the front of the lens barrel. Even the film speed selector around the lens is typical 1970s Hi-Matic design, as well as film advance lever and rewind knurl. The variant Minolta Hi-Matic AF2-M of 1982 had in addition motorized film transport, thus being the only modern compact camera of the Hi-Matic series. But then 1970s design was definitely out so that the series was discontinued. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $40.00 in 2017.

Like the other Hi-Matic’s it had automatic exposure. And like other 1970s Hi-Matic’s it had the CdS window inside the filter ring plus a two contactor hot shoe for the flash. With this camera Minolta overcame the "Electro Control" system which needed two batteries. Its CdS controlled exposure program set speed/aperture combinations from 1/30 second f2.8 to 1/650 second f14. The focusing ring had four distance symbols. F-Stop and shutter speed were shown in the viewfinder. The camera can use film up to 400 ASA and has a 38mm 2.8mm 4 element lens plus leaf shutter. The dimensions are 116×71×53 mm and it weighs 375 grams. The camera also has a right thumb film advance leaver, fold down rewind crank handle that releases the back cover when pulled up, electronic shutter release port, frame counter, and an optical viewfinder. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition with a bad shutter. For this reason it is worth $3.00 for parts in 2016.

Minolta: Maxxum 7000 AF camera  Minolta: Maxxum 7000 AF1985 20185.00The Minolta MAXXUM 7000 (7000 AF in Europe and α-7000 in Japan) 35mm SLR camera was introduced in February 1985. It was the first camera to feature both integrated autofocus (AF) and motorized film advance, the standard configuration for later amateur and professional single lens reflex cameras. The Minolta 7000 had its AF sensors and the focusing drive inside the camera body, and as a result, the lenses could be much smaller and cheaper. The aperture and focus were mechanically driven through the lens mount from the camera body. However, electronically controlled buttons on the camera body now replaced the mechanical aperture ring on the lens, and the setting was electronically displayed on the body and in the viewfinder. The metal housing of older Minolta SLR cameras was replaced with a lighter, cheaper body made of plastics. In other respects, the Maxxum offered most of the standard features of other cameras of the day, with the exception of a rather low flash sync speed (1/125 sec.) and no multi-exposure capability. Minolta introduced a new lens mount, the A system, breaking compatibility with its earlier manual-focus lenses in the MC and MD system. The A lens mount is still the same today, but some modifications have been made to the electronic contacts to facilitate new functions such as motor zoom (xi lenses, now discontinued) and a more sophisticated flash metering system (ADI). Early Maxxum 7000 cameras were inscribed "MAXXUM 7000" with a crossed 'XX' The oil giant Exxon considered this to be a violation of its trademark because the XX in its logo was linked in a similar fashion. As a result, Minolta was allowed to distribute cameras that were already produced but was forced to change the stylistic XX in Maxxum and implement this change in new production. All Maxxum cameras produced thereafter had a regularly scripted double 'X'. Also, Minolta's autofocus design was found to infringe the patents of Honeywell, a U.S. corporation. After protracted litigation, Minolta in 1991 was ordered to pay Honeywell damages, penalties, trial costs and other expenses in a final amount of $127.6 million. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $2.00 for parts in 2018.

A very similar in size to the 16EE and it features a CdS meter in place of the selenium meter and requiring a PX625 battery or a Wein Cell MRB625 1.35v. The shutter speed was not pre-selected by the film speed but the film speed is set by a dial surrounding the CdS meter. On back, left hand side, of the camera is a dial to set the shutter speed L= low for 1/50 of a second and H= High for 1/200 of a second. When shooting with a flash the switch is set to F=Flash and this fixes the aperture to f11 and the shutter speed to 1/30 of a second. The CdS meter adjusts the aperture from f2.8 to f16. The shutter release has a built-in cable release socket and the base has a ¼ inch 24 thread tripod socket which is used to hold the flash bracket / cold shoe. A switch on the base sets focus to portrait 2.5 meters (6-7 feet) for close up and landscape 5 meters (16 feet) to infinity. Two close up lens where available. No. 1 is designed for close-up of 1.2M (about 4 feet), No.2 for close-ups of 0.7m (about 2.5 feet). The viewer has a line to indicate a parallax correction when taking subjects at less than 1m (about 3.3 feet). A UV filter was supplied with the camera when new and is removable. Filters and close up lens where supplied in a plastic case. 1A, 81A and 80A as the filter set and the Y48 (Yellow) filter supplied with No.1 and No.2 close-up lenses. Filters are interchangeable with the 16EE. The camera was also supplied with a zip up case and wrist strap. The Minolta 16 Cds is the same model as Minolta 16 EE2 for the USA market. The name change is shown on the handbook that comes with the camera. In 1964, the camera cost about £29 ($36.00). The last list price, in 1965, in the USA was £72 ($89.50). The Lens is a 25mm Rokkor with apertures of f2.8 to 16 and the film speed the camera is capable of using is ASA 25 to 320 or DIN 15 to 26. The camera also has a flash sync socket and a large optical viewfinder. The dimensions are 112x55x32mm (4 9/16 x 2 1/8 x 1 1/4 inches) and it weighs 275g (9 1/2 oz). The camera set came with a case, wrist strap, UV Filter Y48 (Yellow), 1A-skylight (1.1x), 80A (3.2x), 81B (1.3x), and manuals in English: MEB304 I plus MEB304. The camera pictured here is good condition and worth $20.00 in 2020.

Minolta: Minolta 16 P camera  Minolta: Minolta 16 P1960-1965 20195.00The first Minolta 16 camera was the 16 Automat (1955), which was almost identical to the Konan 16 Automat. It featured a fixed-focus 25mm lens, apertures from f/3.5 to f/11, and shutter speeds from 1/50 to 1/200 plus bulb. Film advance was via a Minox-style push-pull housing. The 16 was the second Minolta 16 model, introduced in 1957. Basically a more streamlined Automat, it was modified to allow for slip-on filters and close-up lenses and had fewer shutter speeds. It was available in six colors in addition to the standard chrome. This was followed three years later by the 16 II, which appeared identical to the 16 but featured an improved lens and expanded shutter speeds (1/30 to 1/500 plus B) and aperture ranges (2.8 to 16). There was also a version of the 16 II with a built-in transistor radio, which was sold as the Sonocon 16 MB-ZA starting in 1962. The 16 P, came out in 1960. It had a rigid body, and aperture range of f3.5-f16. The 16 EE, introduced in 1962, featured a built-in selenium light meter and shutter-priority automatic exposure. In terms of other features (lens, aperture range, etc.) it was basically similar to the 16 II, though it was larger, had a rigid plastic body, and offered no manual settings. It was replaced in 1963 by the 16 EE2, which used a CdS cell instead of a selenium meter. As its 16mm cameras had been growing increasingly large through the addition of more features, Minolta introduced a new and much smaller model, the 16 MG, in 1966. It lacked automatic exposure, but included a light meter and match-needle that were almost as easy to use and offered the added bonus of manual exposure control. The aperture and shutter speed were set at the same time using a single "exposure" dial. The meter was a selenium unit, which did not require a battery and hence allowed the camera to be made smaller. The 16 MGS of 1970 was similar but used single-perforated film, which allowed the negative size to be increased and picture quality improved. The last Minolta 16 was the 16 QT, which was produced from 1972 to 1974. It was a simplified version of the MGS, designed to compete with the new 110 format. The QT had a 23mm lens, apertures from f/3.5 to f/22 and two shutter speeds, 1/30 and 1/250. It also offered manual focusing, a departure from previous models.

Minolta: Minolta Autopak 270 camera  Minolta: Minolta Autopak 2701977  20165.00This is as the name suggests a 110 pocket camera released by Minolta in 1977. It has a Rokkor 1:3.5/26mm (4 glass elements in 3 groups) lens with a continuous slide button with 5 symbols and 1 click stop on the top of the camera. Exposure control is programmed with two automatic changed apertures of f3.5 plus f8 and an electronic shutter with step speeds from 1/330 of a second to 10 seconds. The usable film speeds for the 110 16mm film cartridges are ASA 64 to 125. The camera uses a 4.5v K-size #538 battery to power the flash cubes, exposure control, and shutter speeds. The viewfinder is a bright frame finder with an LED indicator for insufficient light and distance symbols. The flash mount is for magi-cubes and the camera has a cable shutter release. It also a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, a two conductor hot shoe, and a built-in slide-across close-up lens at 50cm with automatic parallax correction in viewfinder. The dimensions are 132×58×26mm and the weight is 190g with the film. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.

Minolta: Minolta Disc-5 camera  Minolta: Minolta Disc-51983 20166.00The Minolta Disc-5 is a simple, flat camera for Disc film cartridges, a format introduced by Kodak in 1982 and this camera was introduced soon after in 1983. The Disc-5 has 2 shutter speeds, 1/100 of a second and 1/200 of a second. It uses a fixed focus 12.5mm f/2.8 lens combined with a selenium cell controlled aperture to expose the film. A sliding door in front of the viewfinder also closes the lens so both are covered when not in use. This model was also available in designer patterns and colors but named the Courrèges AC 101. Like many of the Kodak disc cameras it has a lifetime battery that should not be exchanged by the user for it is very difficult. It was amazing how many years the battery lasted even with a built in flash. The camera also uses a slide selector under the lens for close-up and landscape. When slid in the close-up position a lens is placed in front of the original but does not change the viewfinder. Although the quality of the pictures with this camera was better than most, it still was not great and this led to the demise of the disc film. The only other feature is a swivel hard point for a carry strap. This camera like most Disc-5’s has a dead battery but is listed in fine condition for its historic value. The camera pictured here is worth $10.00 in 2016.
Minolta: Minolta Disc-7 camera  Minolta: Minolta Disc-71983 20164.00The Minolta Disc 5 and 7 were the first Minolta cameras that use the film disc launched by Kodak in 1982. They both have automatic exposure by Selenium cell, with automatic flash, advances automatic film, and are powered by a long life lithium batteries that at that time were replaced by the manufacturer but the internal OEM lithium batteries can be replaced with two common 123A batteries with a soldering iron and some difficulty (not worth it). The camera is provided with an f2.8 12.5mm lens, consisting of 4 elements in 4 groups. The optical glass is treated. The focusing is fixed to 1.2 meter to infinity, with a sliding lens position of closer focusing from 0.4 to 1.2 meter. The viewfinder has luminous framework with correction of parallax and indications of the symbols of focusing. The shutter speeds are 1/100 to 1/200 of a second and the aperture CDS controlled. The Disc 7 was introduced and sold by Minolta in 1983. The Disc 7 had one remarkable feature which stood it apart from other disc cameras. In the center of the front plate was a small convex mirror, which could be used by the photographer to compose a self-portrait. It also has a pivot arm with a carry strap hard point, shutter release socket, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The pivoting arm allows you to set the camera on a flat surface for a timed photo. The timer is set with a slide switch next to the mirror that has a LED that flashes when engaged. The camera retailed for $122.50 when new and you could buy an extender kit for $40.00 plus $10.00 for a case. The camera pictured here is in Good esthetic condition but the batteries are dead and for that reason it is worth $10.00 in 2016.

Minolta: Minolta SRT-101 camera  Minolta: Minolta SRT-1011966 201910.00The SR-T has an extremely bright finder with a central micro prism focusing aid that proves to be very accurate in most cases, since even when no visible lines are present in the subject, all out-of-focus objects appear to shimmer. Two exposure meter needles and the selected shutter speed are shown in the viewfinder. A small rectangle to the right indicates the acceptable needle deflection range for a healthy battery when the ON/OFF switch on the camera base is set to the battery check position labelled BC. Battery power is saved by placing the switch in the OFF position whenever the camera is not used. Battery power may also be saved by keeping the lens cap on whenever possible, since the exposure meter draws current in proportion to light intensity entering the camera lens. The metering circuit is dependent on an obsolete mercury battery. It may be replaced using a zinc-air hearing aid 1.4-volt battery, which usually comes in a six-pack and is not very expensive.

Several internal parts may fail on a forty-year-old camera, and the SR-T 101 is no exception. The only serious trouble is related to the exposure meter movement itself, in which the tiny coil tends to break, this situation requires a replacement. The back door rubber sealing foam will usually need replacement, and so will a small strip of the same cushioning material sealing the mirror when it goes up when you hit the shutter release. A strip of this may be cut from a similar sealing material from a hardware store. All other problems are easily put right with a minimum of effort and tools, unless the camera is worn out, which rarely happens. In fact, anybody who figures out how to remove the top cover without causing any damage can do the rest.
The Minolta SR-T 101 is a 35mm SLR camera made by Minolta Camera Co. Ltd, Japan, premiering in the March 1966 Japan Camera Show . Sales began in April 1966 and it stayed in production with only minor changes for ten years, the result of the thorough development effort that was put into the camera. The body is a direct continuation of the Minolta SR-7 Model V of 1962, itself an innovative camera. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2019.

Minolta: Minolta SRT-200 camera  Minolta: Minolta SRT-2001975  201615.00The SRT 200 was introduced in 1975 and the base model SRT 100 was updated in 1975 when the other models were altered. The cameras remained similar to the previous budget models but with the top shutter speed increased from 1/500 of a second to 1/1000 of a second. The major specifications of the budget SRT bodies were as follows: (1) Single lens reflex camera with through-the-lens CLC (Contrast Light Compensator) meter coupled to shutter and film speed. (2)Meter sensitivity EV 3 to EV 17 at ASA 100. (3)Film speeds supported ASA 6-6400. (4) Fully mechanical cloth focal plane shutter with speeds from 1-1/1000 of a second plus B. (5) Shutter speeds 1-1/60 sec with electronic flash. (6) Oversized quick return mirror for no image cut-off even with super telephoto lenses. (7) Exposure control needle visible in viewfinder. (8) Flash synchronization (X and FP). (9) Automatic reset film counter. (10) Accessory shoe. As with the original SR-T 100, the later budget models do not have a lot to recommend it when other more fully featured models are now available for similar prices. At the time, however, it remained an attractive option for someone seeking a fully mechanical body with a limited budget. The Minolta SRT 100X (or rebadged SRT 200 released in the U.S. and Canada in 1975) launched in 1977 and was the last camera of Minolta's SRT series of robust SLR bodies with TTL match-needle-meter instrument in the viewfinder. A variant in 1979 had a simpler single cell meter instead of the CLC meter of the SRT series. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2016.

Minolta: Minolta X-570 camera  Minolta: Minolta X-5701983  201610.00The Minolta X-570 (X-500 in Europe) was introduced in 1983 as a lower cost alternative to the X-700. It used the same chassis as the rest of the Minolta X series and the standard Minolta SR mount. The primary difference between the top-of-the-line X-700 and the X-570 is that the latter lacked the fully automatic Program exposure mode. However, the X-570 added an important feature that would be part of all subsequent X series cameras, but never added to the X-700, a match LED exposure meter. This system indicated the selected shutter speed with a blinking LED and the suggested shutter speed, based on the exposure value and the selected lens aperture, with a solid LED. Some consider the X-500 more of an enthusiast's camera than the X-700, since it offered no P mode and therefore required some photographic knowledge. The camera takes two 675 pill batteries to power it including the shutter. It also was designed for a motor drive attachment (model M-1), complete with 3 contact points and a ground contact. The camera also has a hot shoe with three contact for the flash unit. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and does not respond. For this reason it is worth $3.00 for parts in 2016.

Minolta: Minolta X-700 camera  Minolta: Minolta X-7001981-1982 201830.00This is Minolta's best mass market manual focus camera, ever. A testament to its lasting and great design, it was introduced in early 1981 and was in continuous production until the beginning of 2001. It uses all of the Minolta manual focus lenses made since the 1960s, although you'll have better luck in program mode if you stick to the newest MD lenses. It has program and aperture-preferred automation modes. Manual mode only indicates the suggested shutter speed in the finder; you have to take your eye away from the finder to see what you've actually set. It weighs 17.5oz (520 g) unlike amateur cameras like the $1,000 Nikon F100, the Minolta X-700 has a stainless steel lens mount. "MPS" on the front stands for "Minolta Program System," which was hot stuff when Program automation cameras were novel in 1985. Today it just means it has program mode, like every other camera. It has a cloth horizontal focal plane shutter. It runs on two S76 button cells or #357 in Eveready Energizer. The camera pictured above is in Fine condition and is worth $45.00 in 2018. It has with it a Minolta MD MD 28-70mm f/3.5-4.8 Lens worth $10.00, 2 Minolta md Rokkor-x 45mm f2 worth $30.00 each, Sigma zoom 100-200mm f4.5 worth $25.00, and a Samigon 28mm f2.8 worth $20.00.

What’s more, with shutter speeds of 1/1000 to 4 seconds in the auto-exposure mode and 1/1,000 to 1 second in the manual mode, the Minolta X-9 delivers blur-free images even while shooting fast-moving objects. The X9 is the last of the manual SLR in the Minolta line and is fully capable of all the magic: meter-coupled, aperture and shutter-ready settings, and much more. The X9 had all the features of the popular X-700 with a fresher look. It is powered by two #357 pill batteries. The camera was introduced in 1990. The camera uses Minolta's SR (MC/MD) mount, which means that all of Minolta's incredible manual focus lenses will fit naturally onto this camera. Further special features include one of the most accurate metering systems made by any manufacturer, enabling full auto-exposure and aperture priority shooting modes that are extremely accurate. Additionally, the focus screen, reflex mirror, and viewfinder are all exceptionally large compared to other cameras, enabling very easy focusing even in low-light conditions. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and will not turn on. For this reason it is worth $10.00 for the lens and $1.00 for the body in 2018.
Minolta: Minolta XE-5 camera  Minolta: Minolta XE-51975  201610.00The Minolta XE-5 is one year younger and the less advanced sibling of the Minolta XE 35mm SLR cameras. It was introduced in 1975 and was not sold on the Japanese home market. The XE-5 also has a fixed finder and the vertical running metal blade shutter, as well as the bright viewfinder with the convenient exposure meter scale to the right, for either manual or automatic operation. However, the double exposure facility has gone, as has a few other minor details. The on/off switch is at the rear, but the film advance indicator is gone. The traditional two conductor hot-shoe is at the top of the finder. The prism housing is all black and when new it came with a MC Rokkor-X PF 1:1.7 f=50mm lens. The exposure setting is either meter-assisted manual or aperture-priority automatic. In the manual mode, the recommended shutter speed on the meter scale in the viewfinder must be compared to that set on the dial. The automatic mode is selected by setting the shutter speed dial to A. The electronically controlled shutter has manually selectable speeds from 4 seconds to 1/1000 second and a backup mechanical 1/90 second plus B. The shutter-speed dial locks in the A position, easily released by a tiny button reached when gripping the dial. The film speed is set on a dial surrounding the rewind knob. A small button just next to the viewfinder housing releases the ASA-dial. To the left on the same dial is an exposure compensation scale of ±2 EV, which may easily be set depressing a button on the dial edge. The camera operates on a 3V silver battery or two 1.5V SR44 batteries. The XE-5 also has a battery check lever with a red LED, lens release button, PC X sync socket, lens diaphragm stop-down button, a traditional self-timer with trigger button, rewind release button, tripod socket, and the battery compartment. The camera pictured here is in blank condition and worth $0.00 in 2016.

Minolta: Riva Zoom 70 W camera  Minolta: Riva Zoom 70 W1995  20166.00This stylish pocket-sized "capsule" 35mm Minolta Freedom Zoom Explorer camera was introduced in 1997 and features a built-in wide-angle 28 to 70mm lens. Designed for both scenic shots and close-ups, the Minolta Freedom Zoom Explorer lets you select panorama mode and date imprinting at any time. Users may also choose between selectable exposures mode to ensure proper exposure for close-up, night portrait, or landscape/night view shots every time. This camera also offers precise, three-beam active infrared autofocus for sharp pictures. The built-in automatic flash system includes "soft flash" for close-ups, along with red-eye reduction, auto flash, flash fill, and cancel flash.

The Minolta Freedom Zoom Explorer also features a 10-second self-timer setting and wireless remote control release. The camera originally sold in a kit and along with the camera, the kit includes a carrying case, strap, film, batteries, remote control, and a two-year warranty.

The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.

Minolta: Vectis S-1 camera  Minolta: Vectis S-11996 201715.00The Minolta Vectis S-series comprises two APS system models of film SLR cameras made by Minolta, the flagship model Vectis S-1 and the Vectis S-100. The cameras feature a compact design, owing to the use of mirrors instead of prisms in the viewfinder. The Vectis V-lenses used by these models are not compatible with any other lens mount, including Minolta's 35mm A-mount and SR-mount systems, and there are no options to adapt them to other camera systems since the aperture and focus are controlled electronically, the image circle of the lenses captures the APS formats, and the flange focal distance of the V-mount is only 36.00 mm. Only an early DSLR camera body, the Minolta Dimâge RD 3000, also used the V-lens mount. The Vectis brand was also shared with a number of small APS rangefinder cameras with fixed lenses, including the waterproof Vectis Weathermatic and Vectis GX series. The model numbers of these cameras don't include the S prefix used for the SLR series. S-1 cameras sold in the United States came in a silver/pewter color only, but in some other countries (Australia, United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands and perhaps elsewhere in Europe) a black (some say dark slate gray) body was available. Combined with the 22-80 and 80-240mm zoom lenses, the S-1 makes a light and compact kit for travel photogaphy. Both of these lenses allow switching to manual focus. Some users prefer the 25-150 lens for the range covered in a single lens. The 25-150 does not have the manual focus option. Standard "kit" lenses for the S-1 were the 28-56 and 56-170mm. The autofocus is switchable to manual focusing by pressing the shutter release button halfway and turning the focusing ring of the lens tube. Some lenses don't support that feature but can be switched to manual focusing with the AF/M button on the lens barrel. The Vectis S-1 was released in 1996 and manufactured by Minolta’s plant in Malaysia. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2017.
Minolta: Weathermatic 35 DL (Dual) camera  Minolta: Weathermatic 35 DL (Dual)1987 20158.001987 fine condition worth $20.00 in 2015
Minolta: Weathermatic 35 DL (Dual) camera  Minolta: Weathermatic 35 DL (Dual)1987 201710.00The Weathermatic 35DL issued by Minolta in 1987 is basically the same dual-focus compact camera as the Minolta AF-DL. The difference is the watertight camera body of the Weathermatic which makes it a real camera for aquanauts, with waterproofing to 5m (16.4ft). The electrically driven dual focus lens is hidden behind a water-tight window and the one 6V lithium or four AAA battery compartment is sealed. A big sports finder can be mounted to ease usage under water with goggles. A button on the back of the camera enables "macro" close-ups underwater. The camera was originally supplied in a bright yellow kit bag with several accessories like a two roll film carrier, underwater viewfinder frame, and a carry strap. The 35 DL is solid and made from high-quality plastics. Below water, it operates in fixed-focus mode. Above water, it utilizes an infrared active-type autofocus with a range of 0.75 m (2.5ft) to infinity. A focus hold feature is available. Shutter lock is indicated by a red light next to the viewfinder. The flash is fully automatic; it cannot be turned on or off and has no adjustable settings. Film loading, transport, and rewind are also fully automatic and the camera lacks a button to rewind film in mid-roll. The camera has a 3.5/35mm, switchable to 5.6/50mm lens and the viewfinder magnification changes when the lens is switched. Also it works best with 35mm films of 100 ASA or 400 ASA film speed. The weight without batteries is 275g and it floats in water. The dimensions are 132×69.5×51mm. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 with the instructions in 2017.

Minox: Minox 35 EL camera  Minox: Minox 35 EL1974 201717.00The Minox 35 EL is a miniature 35 mm camera, introduced in 1974 by Minox in Germany. It is known as the smallest 35 mm TTL camera in the world. When closed, it's about the size of a pack of cigarettes and can easily be hidden in a person's pocket. Although it's actually a consumer device, it became popular during the Cold War, as an alternative to the far more expensive sub-miniature cameras like the Minox B. It is equipped with a retractable 1:2.8 35 mm lens that has a focus-range from 90 cm (35 ½ inch) to infinity. It has an electronic light meter which can be read from the view finder. It also has an electro-mechanical shutter that is driven by a small electronic circuit mounted just behind the lens. The electronics are powered by 5.6V battery, such as the mercury based Duracell PX-27 (replacement battery Excell S27PX). The Minox 35 EL was so popular in the West that the Russians decided to duplicate it completely. The copy was built by Arsenal in Ukraine (former USSR) and was called the Kiev 35A. The dimensions were identical and every tiny detail was exactly duplicated, including the bright red button, one of the landmarks of the Minox. Accessories of the Minox 35 EL and the Kiev 35A are interchangeable. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $45.00 in 2017.

Miramax: Miramax McDonalds Spy Kids 110 camera  Miramax: Miramax McDonalds Spy Kids 110  20173.00This camera was a giveaway with McDonalds Happy Meals in 2001. It came preloaded with film and is capable of being reloaded. It takes 110 film cartridges up to 24 exposures. The camera was made in China and is all plastic with an open frame viewfinder with no optics on the top. The camera also has a left hand film advance wheel on the front, frame count window in the back cover, shutter button on top, and a ¼ turn slotted screw lock to open the back cover. It has no flash capability and is meant to be used outdoors in the daylight. The camera was added to the Happy Meal giveaway to coincide with the release of Spy Kids the movie released in September of 2001 produced by Troublemaker Studios and Dimension films. The camera is toy #7 in a set of 9. It is the only one of the nine that really worked. The set included Spy Squirter, Spy Motion Detector, Spy Watch, Spy Phone, Spy Glasses, Spy Light & Launcher, Spy Camera, Spy Fooglie Identifier, and an Invisible Visible Spy Pen. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition with two extra new old stock 110 film cartridges. This camera with film is worth $10.00 in 2017.
Miranda: Miranda DR camera  Miranda: Miranda DR1962 2018The Miranda D was also sold as DR distinguished by a red dot on the frame counter. The difference between the Miranda D and the DR is the addition of a micro prism spot in the center of the viewfinder ground glass. Both the Miranda D and the DR do not have either a meter or an internal diaphragm coupling. The back of the lens has a projection but this was fixed and not a diaphragm coupling arm. These models use lenses with an external diaphragm button often referred to as a PAD, like the Exakta. There are two Exakta adapters: the AX which mounted an Exakta lens in the normal position with the focusing index at top center and an AXM adapter which mounted the lens "upside down" so the left-handed diaphragm button would face the Miranda right hand shutter release. This adapter comes with an extra button to extend the Miranda shutter release. The DR has both a Pentax M42 and Nikon bayonet lens mount. Miranda also supplied adapters for Topcon, Leica, and Contax screw mounts. These lenses will focus to infinity. For a short while Spiratone sold a bayonet (not screw-on) T adapter for the Miranda. The Miranda D and DR have a small rotating knob to set the shutter speeds. Speeds for the DR are 1/30 of a second to 1/500, and the slow speeds are set with a small lever underneath the main dial. The film advance on the D plus DR is ratcheted lever single action and the shutter is loaded with the next frame. The DR was introduced in 1962 and the original cost of the DR with lens and a waist-level finder was about $90.00 (£70). $100.00 in 1962 is equivalent to more than $800.00 today. The Miranda DR pictured above has two Soligor lenses. A 135mm f3.5 M42 mount worth about $45.00 and an f2.5 35mm Miranda bayonet mount worth about $40.00. The camera is in good condition and worth $25.00 in 2018.

The camera was made in Taiwan and has nothing to do with Ogihara Akira one of the founders of the Miranda Camera Company. This camera was labeled with many brand names and produced in as many colors. The camera pictured here is in New condition and worth $8.00 in 2016.

New Taiwan: Capital MX-II (Capital Optical Lens) camera  New Taiwan: Capital MX-II (Capital Optical Lens)c1980s 20174.50The Capital MX-II 35mm camera with Capital optical auto-fix focus 50mm 1.6 lens was Made in 1986 in Taiwan. The original set came with zip up bag for the camera, lens cover, carry strap, camera instructions, and the camera. Capital cameras were marketed by United States Sales Corporation and only two cameras were found to have the Capital label. These are the MX-II and the KX100 35mm camera (a focus free, point and shoot, plastic camera with a hot shoe). The MX-II Capital is just another name put on these Taiwan cameras with the same design and lenses. All these cameras have a 50mm 1.6 lens with weather icons for aperture settings, the zip-up case, lens cover, and instructions. Cameras like the Lynx PPL 500XL in 1985 and the Ceptre YN 500 in 1990. The Lavec Company (Taiwan) also produce these cheap cameras in the Lavec name like the Lavec LT-002 and the TC-305. The MX-II produces picture results similar the Holga and the Diana but lacks the following. The camera is also weighted inside to give it the feel of a camera with more class. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $8.00 in 2017.

New Taiwan: Konex MX-V (Optical Color Lens) camera  New Taiwan: Konex MX-V (Optical Color Lens)c1990  20155.00This all plastic camera was made by the Lavec Company and was branded with the Konex label alt-hough Lavec does not appear on the box or camera. The camera has a 50mm fixed lens with a 6ft mini-mum shooting range. Kinectic Marketing put their name on the lens of the Time Magazine camera and others as Kinectic Optical but this this lens only has “OPTICAL COLOR LENS”. All the badging on these type cameras was meant to be confusing to camouflage its true nature of being a cheap plastic camera. The camera takes 35mm film with a recommended speed of 100 or 125 ASA. The lens on this camera was used in many cheap cameras over the years from a TIME magazine give away in 1984 to well into the 90’s with Cameras like the Lynx PPL 500XL in 1985 and the Ceptre YN 500 in 1990. The Lavec Company did produce these cheap cameras in the Lavec name like the Lavec LT-002 and the TC-305. This 1990 camera picture above is in X-Fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2015.
New Taiwan: Life (Color Optical Lens) camera  New Taiwan: Life (Color Optical Lens)1984  199710.00This mostly plastic camera was a free gift from LIFE magazine made by the Lavec Company for Time Life and was not sold at any time. It has a 50mm fixed lens with a 6ft minimum shooting range. Kinectic Optical is the name on what is clearly the same lens on the Time Magazine camera and countless others in this same era. The badging on these type cameras was meant to be confusing and in my opinion this was done to reinvent the camera to entice more unsuspecting customers. It takes 35mm film with a recommended speed of 100 or 125 ASA. The lens on this camera was used in many cheap cameras over the years from this Life give away in 1984 to well into the 90’s with Cameras like the Lynx PPL 500XL in 1985 and the Ceptre YN 500 in 1990. The Lavec Company did produce these cheap cameras and made cameras in the Lavec name like the Lavec LT-002 and the TC-305. The number of these cameras with so many creative names is impossible to ascertain. The camera picture is in X-Fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2015.

It is made to look like a more expensive camera of the late 1980s but is constructed quite cheaply. It also has many of the features of the more expensive camera, like built-in flash with ready light, flash on/off switch, built in lens cover that locks the shutter button when closed, a frame counter, optical viewfinder, film release button, a fold down rewind crank that is the back cover release, and a right thumb film advance wheel.

The flash unit has a slid on/off switch located on the front of the camera under the flash and a flash ready LED on the top to the left center. It also has a film ASA view window on the back cover and a frame counter window on the bottom right of the camera body. The shutter button is connected to the lens cover and will not engage when the cover is closed. The camera operates on one AA alkaline battery stored in a compartment on the side of the camera.

It has a 50mm fixed lens with a 6ft minimum shooting range. Kinectic Optical is the name on what is clearly the same lens on the Time Magazine camera and countless others in this same era.

It takes 35mm film with a recommended speed of 100 or 125 ASA.

New Taiwan: Suntone Sports 35 MM400 camera  New Taiwan: Suntone Sports 35 MM400  202012.00The Sports 35 MM400 (Action Tracker/ActionSampler/Sports 35/Pop Cam and so many more names) is a small 35mm toy camera with four lenses. It was made in China, by New Taiwan, and often features corporate logos (e.g. Renault, ADi), indicating it was in some cases given away for nothing as a promotional gift. Its appearance and function is identical to the Lomographic ActionSampler. The camera takes four consecutive pictures on a 24×36mm negative, as the shutter spins round like clockwork. With fixed focus, fixed shutter speed (approximately 1 second in total for all four lenses) and a fixed aperture, don't expect perfect images. Actually, the only way to correctly expose your film is to choose the right film sensitivity. ISO 400 is generally recommended. The prints with four images taken quickly after one another can be great fun. It works especially well with frantically moving people or with sports events.
The shutter is a small plastic rotating disc placed just behind the lenses. This disc has one small opening and in combination with the four light chambers, it gives four exposures. The documentation specifies four 26mm f/11 lenses and that everything from 1.2m to infinity is in focus. The shutter speed is set at 1/100s with 0.22 second intervals between each frame. Frame advance is via a thumbwheel cog and the return via a crank handle on the top of the camera. When loaded with film (and only then), advancing to the next frame will cock the shutter. The camera has a small frame counter in the bottom that is automatically reset when you open the back. Pictures are composed through a foldable external frame finder on top with no optics. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $15.00in 2020.

The USPS comprises approximately 45,000 members organized into 450 squadrons across the United States and in some U.S. territories. It is America\'s largest non-profit boating organization and has been honored by three U.S. presidents for its civil contributions. In 1914, it adopted its own flag, which was then patented in 1916. This flag may be worn as a signal flag on the signal hoist, typically in the starboard rigging. Despite its name and the original intent of its designers, it was never recognized by the U.S. government or navy as a national ensign; however, some smaller boats will wear this flag in place of a national ensign, usually because they lack a mast and do not operate outside home waters. The U.S. Power Squadrons manual of flag etiquette states, \"The preferred location for flying the USPS ensign is the starboard yardarm or spreader halyard. It may be worn there day and night.\"

There are a number of Wizen labeled cameras and for the purpose of identification we will call them New Taiwan Wizen cameras. Some of these are the Wizen AW818, Wizen SM111, Wizen Excel-1, Wizen MD-90 DX, Wizen M-1000, Wizen Novacam II, Wizen Novacam 1, Wizen 850-S, and the New Taiwan Wizen Zen. The New Taiwan Wizen Zen camera was made around the 1990s and has a 3 element 39mm f3.5 glass lens, DX coding, built-in flash, flash on/off switch, flash ready green LED, low light red LED, built-in lens cover with shutter release lock when closed, optical viewfinder, frame counter, 10 second self-timer button on the top of the camera, ¼ by 1 inch LCD mode plus date display, auto film advance, auto film rewind with mid roll capability, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera is powered by two AA batteries and is for use with ASA 100 to 400 film. The camera pictured here is in poor esthetic condition but works well. For these reasons the camera is worth $3.00 in 2020.
New Taiwan: X-O (Color Optical Lens) camera  New Taiwan: X-O (Color Optical Lens)1984  20193.00The R.O.C. X-O 35mm camera with Color optical fix focus 50mm 1.6 lens was Made in the 1980s in Taiwan. The original set came with zip up bag for the camera, lens cover, carry strap, camera instructions, and the camera. Thiwan cameras were marketed by United States Sales Corporation and two of those cameras were found to have the Capital label. These are the MX-II and the KX100 35mm camera (a focus free, point and shoot, plastic camera with a hot shoe). The R.O.C. (Republic of China) X-O is just another name put on these Taiwan cameras with the similar design and the same lens/shutter assembly. All these cameras have a 50mm 1.6 lens with weather icons for aperture settings (5.6 to 16), the zip-up case, lens cover, and instructions. Cameras like the Lynx PPL 500XL in 1985 and the Ceptre YN 500 in 1990. The Lavec Company (Taiwan) also produce these cheap cameras in the Lavec name, like the Lavec LT-002 and the TC-305. The X-O produces picture results similar to the Holga and the Diana but lacks the cult like following. Some of these cameras are also weighted inside to give it the feel of a camera with more class but not the X-O. The X-O is very light, has a viewfinder with no optics, a fold down rewind crank, a rewind release button, and a right thumb frame advance wheel. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $8.00 in 2017.
New Taiwan: Yamasheta 35mm (Yamasheta Optical Lens) camera  New Taiwan: Yamasheta 35mm (Yamasheta Optical Lens)c1980s 20178.00The lens on the Yamasheta offers no surprises – it’s 50mm (more or less), fixed focus from 8 feet to infinity, and non-removable. There is only one shutter speed, which I have guesstimated is in the 1/60th – 1/100th range, as its true speed is not listed anywhere in the manual nor could I find it online. It does have four f-stops: 5.6, 8, 11, and 16, which is nice as most cameras in this quality range usually have between one to three f-stops. That gives you a bit more flexibility in choosing film speed, and on most days you should be able to use film between ISO 100-400. The hot shoe flash only adds to that flexibility by allowing you to shoot at night or indoors. Overall, the Yamasheta #SPCAM3 35MM camera has a lot to offer Lomographers. It has the wild, interesting, and unpredictable results we crave. It’s far from feature rich, but it offers enough flexibility for lots of film choice and use in various conditions. To top it all off, it’s a great value too. You can easily pick one up on eBay for $10-20, or less if you’re lucky enough to find it in a thrift shop. The Yamasheta 35MM is capable of creating very interesting results. Combined with its low price and reasonable flexibility, it makes a great addition to the collection of anyone who enjoys light leaks and overlapping frames. The camera is a New Taiwan 35mm (New Optical Lens) from the 1980’s. Most of the information was gleaned from the Lomography site. The camera pictured here is in New condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.
New Taiwan: Yunon YN 500 (Optical Color Lens) camera  New Taiwan: Yunon YN 500 (Optical Color Lens)c1980s 20175.00The Yunon Optical Company Limited was established in Pei Tou a suburb of Taipei in 1974. The Trademark YUNON for cameras and photographic equipment was registered in the USA in 1984. By 1984 there were at least four major players in the US ultra-cheap 35mm camera market. They were Formosa Plastics Corporation (FPC), Yunon Optical Company, the New Taiwan Photographic Corporation (Ouyama 1982) and A..V. Lavec, (1978) which was a trademark initially associated with the manufacture of cooking equipment and cooking utensils.
The earliest date quoted for the Yunon YN 500 is 1984, and we know that production continued in 1985 and 6 because Yunon thoughtfully incorporated the year in its 'Quality Passed' stickers. There were three variations on the Yunon 500; this one, an all-black model, and one with an American Eagle and a 'Yunon Optical Glass Lens'. The clones include the Lynx PPL-500XL 'Color Optical Glass Lens' 1985 and 'Optical Color Lens' (plastic?) 1986, The Sceptre YN500 with eagle and a 'Sceptre Optical Color Lens' 1986, the Photoflex MX-35 with an 'Optical Color Lens' (Photoflex was founded 1985), the Impac with an 'Impac Optical Color Lens', the MVP with an 'Optical Color Lens' 1986 (this was a promotion of the Ford Motor Company), the Quartz and the Limp. All of these have the same series number 742677 on the lens ring which is not found on cameras branded by the other companies or their clones. The maximum aperture for the Yunon YN 500 is probably about F8 and the minimum about F22; the lens is about 42-45mm not 50mm; the viewfinder window is not in the correct ratio for a 35mm frame. As noted elsewhere, these cameras were built to be cheap and quality was low, so low that they are often dismissed as toys, but in competent hands they could produce results similar to those from a cheap Kodak Instamatic. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.
Nikon: Coolpix 2100 camera  Nikon: Coolpix 21002003 20192.00Introduced in 2003 by the Nikon Company headquartered in Tokyo, Japan but most of the manufacturing of the Coolpix line is done in Taiwan.

Nikon: Coolpix 4300 camera  Nikon: Coolpix 43002002  20165.00The Nikon Coolpix 4300 is a digital camera that was made by Nikon. It was first released on October 1, 2002 and is no longer in production. At 4.0 effective megapixels, it is capable of delivering 2,272 x 1,704 pixel images. An included lens cap protects its Nikkor 3x optical Zoom lens, with a focal length of 8 to 24 mm (equivalent of a field of view in 38 to 114 mm lens), as well as an aperture of f/2.8–4.9 and shutter speed of 8 seconds to 1/1,000 of a second. It is capable of ISO equivalents of 100, 200, and 400. Image viewing is done on its 1.5 inch TFT LCD screen, and Type 1 CompactFlash (CF) cards are its storage medium. It was designed to be powered by a rechargeable EN-EL1 lithium ion battery, but it also accepts the non-rechargeable 6V 2CR5/DL245 lithium battery. It weighs about 7.9 ounces without the battery or CF card, and its components are housed inside a body sized at 3.7 x 2.7 x 2.0 inches. Twelve of Nikon's scene modes were built into the camera, as well as the ability to record 320 x 240 resolution, 15 fps silent video clips in the QuickTime .MOV file format. This camera model was often criticized for its relatively short battery life. Moreover, it uses a non-standard battery type from an era where camera manufacturers liked to use proprietary shapes in order secure an after-market income. A further disadvantage is that the unit cannot be charged within the camera. To its credit, it uses CF cards and not one of the obsolete designs like MS, SM, or XD that severely restrict the use of competitive quality cameras of the time. Advantages are a well above average image quality regarding sharpness. The color rendition is accurate, especially regarding the critical leaf-green shades. It is, however, under-saturated, and often needs to be improved by subsequent processing. The camera has many setting options, but, unfortunately, saturation is not one of them. It also has a zoom-linked optical viewfinder. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.

Nikon: Nikkormat FTN (same as Nikomat FTN) camera  Nikon: Nikkormat FTN (same as Nikomat FTN)1967  201640.00The Nikkormat (Nokomat)FTn was manufactured from 1967 to 1975. It simplified the lens mounting procedure of the rabbit ear Nikkor lenses. The meter coupling pin on the camera still had to be aligned with the meter coupling shoe on the lens, but the lens maximum aperture no longer had to be manually preset on the FTn. Instead, the lens aperture ring had to be turned back and forth to the smallest aperture (largest f-stop number) and then to the largest (smallest number) immediately after mounting to ensure that the lens and the FTn couple properly (Nippon Kogaku called it indexing the maximum aperture of the lens) and meter correctly. This system seems unwieldy to today's photographers, but it was more efficient and easier than before, and became second nature to Nikon and Nikkormat camera using photographers of the 1960s and 1970s. In addition, the FTn improved the metering system to the now classic Nikon 60/40 percent center weighted style. The viewfinder also added +/– over/underexposure metering markers and set shutter speed information. The FTn also offered a choice (made at purchase time or by replacement at factory service centers) of brighter fixed viewfinder focusing screens: Nippon Kogaku's standard Type J with central 4 mm micro prism focusing aid plus 12 mm etched circle indicating the area of the meter center weighting or the Type A with central 3 mm split image rangefinder plus 12 mm etched circle. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $60.00 with the lens in 2016.

Nikon: Nikon F2 camera  Nikon: Nikon F21971  201650.00The Nikon F2 is a professional level, interchangeable lens, 35 mm film, single-lens reflex (SLR) camera. It was manufactured by the Japanese optics company Nippon Kogaku K. K. (Nikon Corporation since 1988) in Japan from September 1971 to June 2000. It used a horizontal-travel focal plane shutter with titanium shutter curtains and a speed range of 1 to 1/2000 second (up to 10 seconds using the self-timer) plus Bulb and Time, and flash X-sync of 1/80th second. It had dimensions (with DE-1 head, see below) of 98 mm height, 152.5 mm width, 65 mm depth and 730 g weight. It was available in two colors: black with chrome trim and all black. The F2 is the second member of the long line of Nikon F-series professional level 35 mm SLRs that began with the Nikon F (manufactured 1959–1974) and followed each other in a sort of dynastic succession as the top-of-the-line Nikon camera. The other members were the F3 (1980–2001), F4 (1988–1996), F5 (1996–2005) and F6 (2004–present). The F-series do not share any major components except for the all-important bayonet lens mount ('F mount'). The camera pictured here is in good condition worth $70.00 with the lens in 2016.

Nikon: Nikon L35 AW-AF camera  Nikon: Nikon L35 AW-AF1986 201710.00This camera has a very high quality 35/2.8 lens and autofocus above water. Underwater, you set the subject distance with a convenient dial. There is a nice big switch that turns the built-in flash on or off. The Action Touch sold for about $150 when introduced in 1986. The camera was produced for two years after which Nikon took it off the market and no company ever made a similar quality camera since. The Japanese concluded that nobody is intelligent enough to focus a camera manually under water. All the cheap underwater cameras introduced after the Action Touch were fixed focus underwater and came with lower quality lenses. This camera can be used underwater up to 10 feet (3.5m) making it great for snorkeling, taking to the beach, and using it in snow, or rain. The exposure system is a CdS cell with programmed auto exposure from EV6 (f2.8 at 1/8 sec) to EV17 (f17.5 at 1/430 sec) with ISO 100 film. The auto ISO range is 50 to 1600 and Non Dx film set to ISO 100. The Action Touch is a heavy duty camera and came with a black face plate. The two AA battery compartment is accessed through a 1 inch screw in metal disk located on the bottom of the camera.

Nikon: Nikon N70 camera  Nikon: Nikon N701994  201620.00The Nikon F70 (or N70 as it is known in the U.S.) was a SLR camera manufactured by the Japanese Company Nikon. Introduced in 1994, it is the predecessor to the Nikon F80. This camera is known for its unusual user interface which uses a combination of function and set buttons along with the thumb wheel to navigate the nestled settings. It is quite different compared to other Nikon SLR's of the same era. The camera has 3D Matrix with eight-segment matrix sensor Built-in retractable flash with 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash Vari-Program system, Large LCD information, coordinated in shape and color, with the control buttons F70D has built-in panorama mode (13 x 36mm) and printing data.

Nikon: Nikon N90s camera  Nikon: Nikon N90s1992  201650.00The Nikon N90s is a 35mm autofocus SLR using Nikon's F lens mount. It was targeted toward the advanced amateur or prosumer; its feature set is comparable to that of Nikon's current D100/200/300 SLRs. The name N90s was used for marketing in the United States; everywhere else, the camera was called the F90x. This camera was also used as the base for the Kodak DCS 400 series of digital SLRs. The N90s/F90x was introduced in 1994 and discontinued in 2001. The camera's predecessor, the N90/F90, was introduced in 1992 and discontinued in 1994. The successor to the N90s was the F100 introduced in 1998. This camera takes four AA batteries that are held in with a screw through the battery compartment cover. It also has auto focus, auto film advance, auto rewind, LCD mode screen, manual mode, auto focus tracking, shutter priority auto exposure control, Aperture priority auto exposure control, DX coded film switch, frame counter, instant return type reflex mirror, standard ISO-type hot shoe contact (slow sync, rear curtain sync), Red eye reduction, flash recommended LED, flash ready LED, battery power indicator, and a thumb wheel mode plus options selector.

Nikon: Nikonos IVa camera  Nikon: Nikonos IVa1980 20205.00Nikonos is the brand name of a series of 35mm format cameras specifically designed for underwater photography launched by Nikon in 1963. The early Nikonos cameras were improvements of the Calypso camera, which was an original design by Jacques-Yves Cousteau and Belgian engineer Jean de Wouters. It was produced in France by La Spirotechnique (currently Aqua Lung) until the design was acquired by Nikon to become the Nikonos. The Nikonos system was immensely popular with both amateur and professional underwater photographers. Its compact design, ease of use, and excellent optical quality set the standard for several decades of underwater imaging. Nikon ceased development and manufacture of new Nikonos cameras in 2001, but the camera remains popular, and there is a large and active secondary market. The Nikonos IV-A was introduced 1980 and discontinued is 1984. This camera was part of the second viewfinder line and Nikon's complete re-design included a through-the-lens (TTL) light meter with automatic exposure. The Nikonos IV-A in 1980 and the Nikonos V in 1984 were the second iteration. The IV-A has a Nikon Nikor 2.5 35mm lens, a single action right thumb film advance lever, large viewfinder, shutter release button with locking slide switch, a utility shoe, frame counter, focus knob on the lens assembly with settings of 2.75 feet (0.8m) to infinity, Aperture settings of f2.5 to 22, ASA/ISO settings of 25 to 1600, a fold down rewind crank handle, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The Nikonos IV-A introduced a one-piece body using a hinged back for film loading; sealing was accomplished through numerous O-rings, including a large gasket for the back. The film transport mechanism for the IV-A was adapted from the contemporary Nikon EM. Like the EM, the Nikonos IV-A primarily operated in aperture-priority auto exposure mode using step less quartz-controlled shutter speeds between 1⁄30 of a second and 1⁄1000 of a second, but the camera also offered two mechanical shutter speeds ([B]Bulb and 1⁄90 of a second, marked as M90) in case of battery failure. The Nikonos V retained the new features of the IV-A and added manual control to set discrete shutter speeds. The V was released to address specific criticisms of the IV-A, namely that the flat gasket design was prone to failure, and that the new flash sync shutter speed of 1⁄90 was too fast, especially since slower speeds could not be set manually to use fill-flash. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $5.00 for parts in 2020.

North American: Namco camera  North American: Namcoc1939 201516.00This camera is made mostly of Bakelite and produced by the North American Manufacturing Company based in Chicago, Illinois. It has a 50mm Graf lens and about 1/50th of a second shutter with settings of instant and time. The camera uses 127 film and embossed on the inside of the back cover is “USE STANDARD VEST POCKET FILM”. Also embossed inside the back cover is “1 5/8 x 2 ½ 4 x 6 cm” the size of the film frames on 127 film. It also has two red lens round windows in the back for lining up each frame. The camera has two ridged round knobs on the bottom of the body just to supply hard point for the film real inside (no other purpose). A spring release button on the side of the body releases the back cover. The film advance knob is on the top and only turns in one direction and that is to the next frame. The bottom of the camera also has a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount hard point. When the camera was produced is a mystery but the film that was left in the camera was from the early 1950’s so we will assume some time around then. The film also suggest Velox paper for the prints so that was produced from the 1940’s to about 1988. The mentioning of the vest pocket film on the back of the camera suggests the 1940’s but was sold as early as 1912. The dual red windows, where a particular frame number on the film backing paper was advanced to appear first in one, then the other window for perfect frame alignment was a design feature of 1930 like the Zeiss Ikon Kolibri the first camera with this feature. So I am going to say the camera was produced about 1935 to 1950 and no later.The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2015.

Olympus: AZ-330 SuperZoom (Infinity SuperZoom 330 / IZM330) camera  Olympus: AZ-330 SuperZoom (Infinity SuperZoom 330 / IZM330)1990 201615.00Released in 1990 in Japan, two years after the award winning IZM300, the 330 is a lesser known product: it does appear on Olympus' global site and shows up on the US website (with all but one of the links/images for its page orphaned). This camera is identical to the AZ330 Superzoom released in Europe and the Infinity Super Zoom 330 released in the US. The 330 has a range of in-built features that are usually only found on higher-end SLR cameras (such as double exposure mode); in terms of Olympus' product line, it would sit below the otherwise similarly featured 'L' Series as it is not an SLR. With a 38-105mm zoom lens, the 330 follows on from the 300 with a viewfinder that is coupled to the lens zoom - while it is not an SLR, the viewfinder zooms to represent the lens's view (the 300 was reportedly the first camera to feature this functionality). Perhaps the most notable feature of this camera is the lens cap - it doubles as an IR shutter remote. The camera also has DX film coding ISO 25-3200, automatic film load, automatic rewind, Self-timer, ± 1.5EV exposure compensation (in 1/2 steps), Center-weighted average or spot metering, focusing range from 0.8 m to infinity (at 38 mm), aperture range from F4.5 to F6, auto flash, red-eye reduction plus fill-in, Single shot, continuous drive (at 1.3 frames per second) or double exposure modes, Passive or continuous subject-tracking auto-focus, User-controlled or continuous subject-tracking zoom, LCD display, and IR Remote Control (on lens cap) with 1 or 3 second setting. The price for the IZM330 in 1990 was 62,000 yen (including the case) or $560.00 (US) for the Infinity Super Zoom 330 or 450.00 BP for the AZ330 Superzoom.

Olympus: Olympus 35 EC camera  Olympus: Olympus 35 EC1969 20177.50The Olympus-35 EC is an electronic controlled 35mm compact camera introduced in 1969. It features a fixed Zuiko 42mm f/2.8 lens comprised of 5 elements in 4 groups. It takes 43.5mm filters. The electronic shutter is a Seiko ESF and is automatically controlled and cocked with the press of the shutter release. It has a shutter speed range of 4 seconds to 1/800 of a second. There is two indicator lights for the camera. There is a yellow light on top of the camera as well as in the viewfinder. This acts as a battery check feature with a half press of the shutter release. It will also briefly light as a slow shutter warning when speeds are 4 seconds to 1/30 of a second. A blue light in the finder will appear when a flash is mounted and required to take proper exposures. The blue light will not emit if there is sufficient light. A shutter lock feature is on the face of the camera to prevent unwanted exposures or meter readings. There is an accessory shoe, on the top plate as well as a ¼” 20 thread tripod socket on the base. Flash is possible with 1/20 of a second flash sync and connects via a PC terminal on the left hand side of the camera. The flash guide number can be set on the lens with the ring closest to the camera body. The exposure meter is based on a CdS cell. The film speed can be set on the top plate of the camera with a range of 25 to 800 ASA. Focusing is done on the lens collar. It uses a zone focus system with a range of 1m to infinity. There are focus stops for 1m, 1.5m, 3m and infinity. They are also represented in the viewfinder by iconography of a person’s face, portrait, and group and mountains. The film transport has an auto resetting counter, uses a manual right thumb wheel for advancing the film, and a rewind crank is on the base of the camera. The exposure system and shutter is powered by 2 mercury PX640 batteries no longer available but replaced by the A640PX alkaline battery. Information from Camera-wiki.org. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $3.00 for display or parts in 2017.
Olympus: Olympus 35 RC camera  Olympus: Olympus 35 RC1970  201610.00The camera’s actual weight is 14.7oz/415g, and it uses an EPX-625 battery (accessed at the bottom of the camera) cell for the metering. The 1970 Olympus 35RC is a great performer. It’s the smallest 35mm rangefinder camera ever made with auto and manual exposure settings. It provides perfect focus and perfect exposure for every shot with its 42mm Olympus f/2.8 E. Zuiko lens. The 35RC is entirely mechanical; even the auto exposure system is electromechanical. The battery moves an exposure needle, and the rest of the camera translates the position of the needle into the correct exposure as powered by your finger pressing the shutter button. In Auto mode, the shutter locks if the light or your settings would lead to a bad exposure. This makes the Olympus 35RC stupid-proof if you leave the lens cap on, since the shutter will lock. The Olympus 35RC uses the Flashmatic system for automatic flash exposure with any manual flash. The camera also has a thumb lever film advance, 10 second timer, fold down rewind crank, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, frame counter top right, and shutter speeds of 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, 500, and B. This camera also has a Vivitar UV-HAZE 43.5mm filter attached. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $40.00 in 2016.

The LT-1 and LT-1 QD are autofocus cameras with a unique synthetic leather exterior that linked the body with the camera case. Special molding technology combined the synthetic leather with the molded case to create a leather-finish body that fit perfectly into the hand. They were available in black, green, brown, and burgundy. These were a "designer" compact aimed at travelers requiring a good-looking point and shoot with a prime lens and with the lens cover closed, the camera looked more like a wallet. The LT-1 was the first in the Olympus LT (leather tech) series, and was followed in 1996 by a QD version with a Quartz date function. The cameras have a 35mm, f/3.5 three element lens and a built in flash.

Olympus: Olympus OM-1 MD camera  Olympus: Olympus OM-1 MD1974 20208.00The OM-1 MD is an all-mechanical SLR. Originally, the bottom plate needed to be modified to mount a motor drive on the OM-1. In 1974, Olympus launched the OM-1MD (MD standing for Motor Drive), to which a motor drive can be attached without need for modification. This new version has a small plate marked \'MD\' on the front, and a small slot with a circular cover on the underside that covers the motor drive coupling. It has a large viewfinder with interchangeable screens but a fixed prism. It also has a through-the-lens exposure meter controlling a needle visible in the viewfinder that needs a MRB625 or PX625 battery accessed behind a screw in plate on the bottom of the camera. It has a compact body, essentially retained on later models. The shutter speed dial is located around the lens mount, which allows photographers to keep the camera at the eye between shots more easily than SLRs with the dial located on the top plate. Originally, the bottom plate needed to be modified to mount a motor drive on the OM-1. In 1974, Olympus launched the OM-1MD (MD standing for Motor Drive), to which a motor drive can be attached without need for modification. This new version has a small plate marked \'MD\' on the front, and a small slot with a circular cover on the underside that covers the motor drive coupling.

Olympus: Olympus Pen EE-EL camera  Olympus: Olympus Pen EE-EL1966-1968 20167.00In 1966 the Pen EE (1961) and the Pen EES (1962) were slightly modified and became the Pen EE (EL) and Pen EES (EL) with a modification of the take-up spool to make film loading easier.

These EL cameras were discontinued two years later in 1968. The camera have a fully automatic exposure system and fixed focusing. It is a true point and shoot camera, and has a 28mm f/3.5 lens. The Pen EE family is easily recognized by the selenium meter window around the lens. The shutter speeds were 1/30 and 1/250 of a second. The shutter speed changed automatically according to light level, thus increasing the appropriate exposure range. A three-zone focus system was used to adjust the focal point. By using the half-frame format, Olympus was able to reduce both the weight and size of the Olympus Pen. It featured a simple rear-winding mechanism, a D-Zuiko lens for superior photographic quality, and an attractive design that also made the camera extremely easy to use. The Pen was a compact mix of innovative ideas that triggered the half-frame camera boom of the 1960s and 1970s. Cumulative sales of Pen Series cameras exceeded 17 million units. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition with a nonworking shutter and worth $5.00 for parts in 2016.

The Pen EE family is easily recognized by the selenium meter window around the lens. These were considered amateur models and true point and shoot cameras, with fully automatic exposure and fixed focusing. The shutter settings EE S are 8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, and B.

Orionwerk: Rio 12 C cameraOrionwerk: Rio 12 C cameraOrionwerk: Rio 12 C camera  Orionwerk: Rio 12 C1921-1929 202029.00With help I have determined the camera brand is "Der Photo-Helfer" and the model is “Helfix”. This was a rebadged “Orionwork Rio 12 C” and rebaged by a Cologne photo dealer in Germany of the name Wilhelm Helfer. He also was a photographer of some notoriety that was born in 1864 and was known to work from 1890 to the late 1920s as evidenced by his photos. Many small camera companies were established in Germany and most failed. Der Photo-Helfer is possibly one of these short lived or renamed companies.
This is a (½ plate?) (9x12cm) billows folding camera with a Helfix Anastigmat f6.3-13.5cm lens. Also printed on the lens ring is Kolner Photo-Kino-Centrale. The shutter is an AGC (Alfred Gauthier in Calmbach) Vario with speeds of 1/25 to 1/100 of a second with bulb and time. The shutter release has a lever and a cable release socket. The aperture setting is at the bottom of the shutter assembly (6.3-36). The focus range is 2 feet to infinity with an adjustable lens axis by raising and lowering the lensboard with the knob on the top right of the front standard. The rear standard has a ground glass screen insert that shows the inverted image directly at the plane of the film. The camera also has a waist high viewfinder mounted to the lensboard. The Rio 12 C or Helfix has a focus adjuster mounted to the front standard and it slides on the rails of the fold out bed. When this adjuster is in its proper position it can easily slide the standard/lens assembly on the rails from 2 feet to infinity on the distance chart attached to the rail bed (Base). A handy carry handle is mounted on the top of the camera and two 3/8 inch 16 thread tripod sockets are provided for landscape and portrait positioning. Judging by the Vario shutter 2-blade dial-set, the shutter speeds, and the medium used by the Helfix, the camera like the Orionwork Rio 12 C was made 1921-1929. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $50.00 in 2020.

The 6x zoom ratio can be extended up to 8.3x in the 3-Megapixel image recording mode thanks to the Extra Optical Zoom function by intentionally using the central part of the CCD. In addition, the zoom lens features eight elements in seven groups including two aspherical lenses, which are used to achieve compactness and higher optical performance. The camera also has a built-in flash, OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer), VGA resolution at 30 fps (requires SD Memory Card), Auto angle detection on video mode, up to ISO1600, 2.5-inch LCD screen, and much more. When new it included two Oxyride AA batteries that offered more than 1.6 times the number of shots compared with Alkaline AA batteries, so you can take approximately 240 pictures with the included batteries.

Pho-tak: Eagle Eye camera  Pho-tak: Eagle Eyec1950-1954 201912.00The Eagle Eye 120 box camera was manufactured by the Pho-tak Corporation in circa 1950 to 1954. The Eagle Eye 120 was constructed of all metal with a decorative faceplate. It features an optical viewfinder, safety lock on the back and a carrying handle. The camera took eight, 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch (6x9cm) exposures on standard no. 120, color or black and white roll films. It is fitted with a 110 mm Zellar fixed focus meniscus lens and a Pho-tak time and 1/50 of a second instantaneous shutter. The camera was originally priced at $5.95. This is the same camera as the Pho-tak Trailblazer but the Trailblazer is minus the riveted escutcheon lens surround. The upgrade was the Spectator Flash 120, Macy Flash 120, and the Scout Flash 120 with synchronized flash connectors on the top (retailed for $7.95). Pho-tak also sold a Cub Photographer Kit for $10.95 that included the Spectator Flash 120 camera, a flash unit, 4 flashbulbs, two penlight batteries (AA) for the flash unit, Press Photographer’s card, a roll of Ansco 120 B&W film, and a book “Getting Started in Photography”.

The Pho-tak Corporation was based in Chicago, Illinois and was active from approximately 1948 to 1960. They shared the same address with United States Camera Corporation that produced several model variations similar to (same as) Pho-tak models with different names and sometimes the same name as in the Trailblazer 120. In the end, a marketing stratagem but USC continued with some new camera intros until about 1968 then vanished about 1970. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2019.

Pho-Tak Corporation, of Chicago, USA, was a manufacturer of simple box cameras. Their name is intertwined with United States Camera, effectively the same company, who produced variations on several Pho-Tak models under different names. The Sears Tower Foldex 20 was one of these cameras. Actually there are four versions of the Foldex. The (United States Camera Company) Rollex 20 is the first of this type and has a small difference in the camera open release button plus does not have a hot shoe. The Sears Tower Foldex 20 and the Pho-Tak Foldex 20 are the same camera with different lens escutcheons with white lettering on black. Later versions of the Pho-Tak Foldex 20 had a plain metal lens escutcheon with black lettering. These cameras were fixed focus, fixed aperture, with a B to 1/50 of a second leaf shutter. The last of these cameras is the Pho-Tak Foldex 30 or Foldex 6.3. This camera has a Steinheil Munchen Cassar 100mm f/6.3 lens and a Vario diaphragm shutter. Although it is called the Foldex 30, nowhere on the camera will you see the number 30 but you will find the 6.3 aperture setting and Foldex does appear on the portrait table support leg. This cameras other differences are that it has a plastic top that encloses the viewfinder, adjustable shutter speeds from B to 1/200 of a second, aperture settings of 6.3 to 22, manual shutter cocking, and the wheel was removed from the shutter release translator. The distinctive characteristic of all these Foldex cameras is that the shutter has to be tripped with a lever that is integrated into the edge of the front door panel. They also can use 120 or 620 film and were produced from 1950-1953 with the Foldex 30 going on till 1962.
Pho-tak: Macy 120 camera  Pho-tak: Macy 120c1950s  201918.00The Macy 120 Flash box camera was manufactured by the Pho-tak Corporation for Macy and Associates in circa 1950 to 1954. The camera was constructed of all metal with a decorative faceplate. It features an optical viewfinder, safety lock on the back, a carrying handle, and two connectors for the Pho-tak flash unit that used the G.E. Mazda Flash bulbs that were the biggest flash bulb on the market with 183,000 lumens. The camera took eight, 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch (6x9cm) exposures on standard no. 120, color or black and white roll films. It is fitted with a 110 mm Zellar fixed focus meniscus lens and a Pho-tak time and 1/50 of a second instantaneous shutter. The camera was originally priced at $7.95. This is the same camera as the Scout 120 flash, Spectator Flash 120, and the Pho-tak Trailblazer. The Pho-tak Eagle Eye is also the same but is minus the flash connectors. Pho-tak also sold a Cub Photographer Kit for $10.95 that included a flash unit, 4 flashbulbs, two penlight batteries (AA) for the flash unit, Press Photographer’s card, a roll of Ansco 120 B&W film, and a book “Getting Started in Photography”.

Polaroid: Captiva camera  Polaroid: Captiva1993-1997 20185.00The Polaroid Captiva instant features built-in "fill" flash, through-the-lens viewing, and a front-element lens. Last effort from Polaroid to come up with something interesting. The concept of a folding SLR was always a fetish for the brand, culminating in the wonderful SX-70. In 1993 the Captiva/Vision was an autofocus SLR, but a far cry from the 35mm techno brigade. This is a large plastic camera, the sole innovation was that the picture came out in a window. Neat, but not enough in the end to hold off the digital age. Still, I think it is an important camera for Polaroid, the last true effort and the beginning of their demise. The one pictured above has a close-up clip-on lens fitted to it and is in fine working plus esthetic condition. The camera is worth $20.00 in 2018.

Polaroid: i-zone camera  Polaroid: i-zone1998-2001 20168.00The Polaroid i-Zone was a type of instant film camera manufactured by the Polaroid Corporation from 1998 to 2001. This camera took pictures 1 ½ " x 1”, which came on a pull-out strip of paper. The strip was decorated and could later be cut to the size of the photo when the image was finished developing. Special film that had a sticky back for mounting the prints was also available. The camera was mostly marketed toward children with its simple functionality, low-cost, and oblong shape. The sales pitch went like the following. “The I-Zone Pocket Camera is the ultra-portable Polaroid camera that takes instant mini-photos that can be stuck anywhere. Collect, trade, and wear these little photos! Use them as calling cards! Sign letters with them! Stick them on books, lockers, or even your friends! Never before has a camera been so much fun.” In an attempt to sell to children several models were developed with cartoon caricatures modeled in three dimensions as part of the camera like the Bugs Bunny, Tweety Bird, and others. To market to older children they labeled some like American Girl, Hello Kitty complete with icon, Barbie complete with make-up mirror, and marketing used an array of colors plus designs, they even had one combo digital plus instant picture camera. Another design incorporated an FM radio that came with a set of ear plug type earphones.

Polaroid: One Step camera  Polaroid: One Step1993 20185.00The POLAROID OneStep Auto Focus & OneStep Camera is so much more then the Polaroid Cameras that came before it. Pictures are clear and in focus, without any fussing; truly a one step camera. The film is self contained with the battery pack included within the film pack. (No batteries to leave inside the camera when not in use!). The Polaroid film pack 600 is expensive, that is if you can find it. This is a good choice for fast quick pictures where a Polaroid is needed or will do. You can always scan a great picture later and transfer it to your computer, if needed. A good Polaroid has many uses in photography whether you’re a pro or not. The camera was introduced in 1993 and sold in the millions. The OneStep line was sold up till 2001 when it was replaced by the One600 line of cameras. This camera features a built in flash, a micro lens that slides in front of the camera lens plus viewfinder allowing 2’ to 4’ focusing, light to dark adjustments, and a handy carry strap. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.

Polaroid: One Step Talking camera  Polaroid: One Step Talking1995  201610.00Designed for Polaroid's 600-series integral film, the 1995 OneStep Talking Camera has a unique gimmick. Along with a couple of pre-recorded messages, the camera can also be used to record speech (or music) which is played via a speaker just before firing of the shutter. It works in a similar way to a digital answering machine. The sound effects can be switched off completely if desired. The pre-recorded messages apparently vary according to the territory the camera was marketed in, and include American and Spanish versions. The UK version has "Smile, you're on Polaroid!" and "Don't say Cheddar, say CHEESE!" said in a comedy accent. The American version said “Smile and say hot bola binga bola etc”, one was just laughter for 3 seconds, and another was a real cow mooing a few times. When the loudspeaker is turned off, this camera functions in much the same way as a standard OneStep 600, with fixed focus and automatic flash. A sliding close-up lens is included, but it tends to make images even softer than usual. Although marketed as a fun camera for taking close-up snapshots at parties and family reunions, picture quality is better when focusing over longer distances out of doors in bright conditions. Other Talking cameras released around the word were the Polaroid 636 Talking, Polaroid 636 Polatalk, and the Polaroid OneStep Talking QPS. All of these cameras were produced from 1995 to 1997. The novelty wore off quickly and truly had no real purpose other than saying “smile, I’m taking a picture now”. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.

Polaroid: Polaroid 320 camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 3201969-1971 201810.00The Polaroid Land 320 is a basic range finder model in the 300 series and is a great place to start using type 100 film as it is one of the only Polaroid Compatible films still in production by Fujifilm and called Fuji FP-100c, FP-100b or FP-3000b. Apart from the fact these cameras use an old type of battery that is very hard to come by. A lot of internet guides tell you to go to “Maplin’s”, and buy a cheap battery holder for two AAA battery's or a much quicker and cheaper option is to simply cellophane tape a CR2 battery to the battery terminals. The battery compartment is on the left side as you look at the back of the camera. The camera also comes with a clip-on cover for the front lens/shutter assembly, 114mm f/8.8 2-element plastic lens, Shutter: 1/1200sec to 10sec (automatic), Aperture: f8.8 to f42 (automatic), exposure compensation dial with range of -1/+2 stops (Lighten/Darken control), Film speed settings of 75asa (for 100asa film) and 3000asa (for BW 3000asa film), and a handy carry strap.

Other features were the removable protective cover, easily removable rollers for cleaning, and a handy carry strap. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.
Polaroid: Polaroid 335 camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 3351969-1971  201610.00The Polaroid Land 335 was a basic range finder model in the 300 series and is a great place to start using type 100 film as it is one of the only Polaroid Compatible films still in production by Fujifilm and called Fuji FP-100c, FP-100b or FP-3000b. Apart from the fact these cameras use two 3V 532 replacement batteries like the A24PX/532, A544, or the A24PX. A lot of internet guides tell you to go to “Maplin’s”, and buy a cheap battery holder for four AAA batteries and with some remodeling Bob your Uncle, or tape two CR2 batteries to the battery terminals. The camera's shutter speed is set automatically by "electronic eye", an aperture priority program and a "lighter-darker" setting dial between 10 seconds and 1/1200 of a second. Its lens is a 3 element glass lens (114mm f8.8). You have to load the shutter manually then slide the lens deck adjuster till the rangefinder image is clear.

Polaroid: Polaroid 360 camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 3601969-1971 201819.00The Land Camera 360 Electronic Flash is a member of the Polaroid 100-400 series, one of the few not including the word "Automatic" in its full model name. All the models in this series share a common set of features, folding bellows, automatic exposure, and an external 'Electric Eye' light-meter beside the lens. The camera was designed for Polaroid 100-series Pack film (3¼×4¼-inch peel-apart instant film) but the 360 differs from the more basic models in the series by including the desirable single-window rangefinder-viewfinder supplied by Zeiss Ikon. The camera includes an electronic development timer. But its headline feature is the dedicated electronic flash, which attaches using a proprietary shoe. This flash is coupled to the rangefinder, and small fins within the flash head reduce the light output as the camera is focused closer, giving correct exposure automatically. The flash contains Ni-Cad rechargeable batteries. A dedicated recharge unit was provided for the flash. The batteries within can be replaced but the process might not be suitable for those not familiar with electronic repair. Unlike previous 100-400 series models, the battery compartment is relocated to the front part of the camera behind the left hand grip. This was necessary because the back flap is riveted shut and contains flash related hardware. The camera uses two 3v #352 / PX24 batteries, one for the shutter and the other for the development timer. The camera was introduced in 1969 and production was discontinued in 1971. It has a 114mm f/8.8 3 element glass lens and an electronic shutter with speeds of 10 seconds to 1/1200 of a second. It also has aperture-priority automatic exposure, exposure compensation dial with range of -1/+2 stops ("Lighten/Darken" control), ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and settings for film speeds of 75, 150, 300, and 3000 ASA. The camera pictured here has a 583 close-up kit worth $10.00. The camera pictured here is in Poor working condition and worth $5.00 for parts or display in 2018.

The last two manufacturers of APS film, discontinued production in 2011. It was marketed by Eastman Kodak under the brand name Advantix, by FujiFilm under the name Nexia, by Agfa under the name Futura and by Konica as Centuria. The main difference of APS film was it allowed information (including camera settings) to be recorded on the film apart from the image, thanks to a layer of magnetic coating. You can find old new stock but expired film is a roll of the dice plus trying to get APS processed can be an ordeal. The Polaroid 5500FF requires 1, CR123A battery.

Polaroid: Polaroid 80 (Highlander) camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 80 (Highlander)1954-1957 20185.00The camera has a 100mm f8.8 3-element glass lens, a 2-speed everset rotary-leaf design; (1/25 of a second and 1/100 of a second plus Bulb) shutter, M-sync via Polaroid Hot Shoe, Exposure set by Light Value scale, Rigid optical viewfinder on top of camera, Scale focus by rotating lens front-element, no rangefinder, and a Self-erecting bellows design. The original Model 95 weighed a manly four pounds, so to appeal to more women, in 1954 Polaroid introduced a smaller camera called the Model 80. It was also marketed as the “Highlander,” with a plaid logo. The Highlander (Model 80) is much lighter, and it’s a lot easier to wield, especially when you’re holding it up to your eye. Of course this meant smaller photos, too–2 ½” by 3 ¼”, instead of 3 ¼” by 4 ¼” of the Model 95. The Model 80 used type 31 plus 32 B&W roll film and later in 1963 color type 75. The Photos processed themselves inside the camera, and were removed through the door on the back after you pulled the film tab till it stop at the next exposure. You then waited about 15 seconds, opened the back, and removed the picture. You then had to apply the stop develop agent provided with each roll of film. The Model 80 was a success, and stayed in production until 1957 but was sold by Polaroid for some time after. Along the way it got a couple of tweaks, so later examples were Model 80A and 80B.
Polaroid: Polaroid 800 camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 8001957-1962 200525.00Polaroid 800 Land Camera, produced between 1957 and 1962 and used type-40 instant roll film that is no longer available. However, if you're handy with tools it can be converted to use 100 pack film, which is still widely available new. This is difficult and Not for the faint of heart. The lens fitted to the Polaroid 800 (and 150) is in fact a very high quality 3-element all-glass coated 130mm F8.8 lens. It will cover 3"x4" with no problem. The type-40 was replaced by type-41. This was Polaroid's first true B&W film. Not long after it hit the market, customers and Polaroid engineers discovered that prints made from this film sometimes would start to fade after a few months. Unlike the sepia prints, the chemistry of the new B&W film left the prints not completely stable, and subject to attack by humidity and contaminants in the air. After much research by Dr. Land and other Polaroid engineers, the only solutions that could be found at the time involved the application of a fixing agent to each print by the customer. Thus was born the "Print Coater" that became so familiar to Polaroid photographers. Research continued on solving the "coater problem," but it wasn't until the early 1970's when a coater-less B&W Polaroid film could be brought to market. Even after improved film types (Types 42, 43, 44) were introduced, Type 41 continued to be offered as a slightly cheaper alternative film for situations (such as print copying) where panchromatic response wasn't important or necessary. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $45.00 in 2017.

Polaroid: Polaroid 95 camera  Polaroid: Polaroid 951948-1953 201712.00The Model 95 is the first of Edwin Land's instant picture cameras. Starting in 1948 and finishing in 1953 the Polaroid Corporation in Rochester made at least 1.5 million of the Model 95 folding viewfinder camera for his instant roll film, including the variants 95A and 95B. The 95 ended production in 1953 and was followed with the 95A from 1954 to 1957 and the 95B from 1957 to 1961. The first of these is recognizable having a spring sighting pin as part of the viewfinder, while the later ones have a wire frame. The model name is written on the face plate of the camera.
Polaroid came out with some wonderful cameras over the years, but compared to conventional cameras, all of them were fairly large and more expensive to operate. Polaroid was seriously hurt by the rise in one-hour labs in drugstores, supermarkets, shopping malls, and even Drive Through, and then finally done in for good by digital. One custom started by Polaroid is still with us, however: When you take a digital picture, people crowd around to see the picture right away, just as they surely did in 1948. The camera pictured above is in good condition and is worth $30.00 in 2017.

Polaroid: Swinger 20 camera  Polaroid: Swinger 201965-1970 20173.50The Polaroid Model 20 "Swinger" was a popular Land Camera produced by the Polaroid Corporation between 1965 and 1970. At $19.95 USD it was the first truly inexpensive instant camera, a fact that helped fuel its enormous popularity and made it one of the top-selling cameras of all time. The Swinger was especially successful in the youth market due to its low price, stylish appearance, and catchy "Meet the Swinger" jingle sung by Barry Manilow in a television advertisement featuring a young Ali MacGraw. The Swinger featured an extinction exposure meter tied to the aperture which displayed the word "YES" in a window below the viewfinder when the exposure was set correctly. Earlier models also displayed the word "NO" when not properly adjusted, while later units used only the YES indicator. The Swinger also included a built-in flashgun for AG-1 flashbulbs. The Swinger used Polaroid's 20-Series roll film, which was the first Polaroid roll film to develop outside the camera. Variants included the Model M-15 "Swinger Sentinel" (the Swinger II in non-US markets), which was a cheaper Swinger without the built-in flash, and the Model 3000 "Big Swinger", which used 100-Series pack film instead of the old-style picture rolls. The Swinger name was also used on several international-market Polaroid cameras in the 1960s and 1970s. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Polaroid: SX-70 Sonar One Step camera  Polaroid: SX-70 Sonar One Step1978-1986 201820.00The Polaroid SX-70 is one of the most famous instant cameras in the world. It was the first instant SLR camera ever made, and the first to use Polaroid’s now-iconic instant film which brought photos to life the moment they left the camera. Its manual controls have made it the go-to camera for artists and dreamers alike, and its fold-down design means you can take it with you, wherever you go. This version was released 1978 a few years after the original SX-70, and features Polaroid's patented Sonar Autofocus, so you can make perfectly-focused instant photos every time. The camera was produced for 8 years until 1986 and used the 778 film packs. Film for the camera has had an off and on production affair with various companies but can still be purchased for the SX-70 averaging $20.00 for 8 exposures. This camera has a sonar autofocus system that greatly helps the user's ability to focus the camera, especially in dark environments, and it can be turned off if manual focus is needed. The lens is a 4-element 116 mm f/8 glass lens, and the camera has an automatic exposure system. You can focus the SX-70 as close as 10.4 inches (26.4 cm), and have a shutter speed range from 1/175 of a second to more than 10 seconds.

Premier Image: Premier PC-600 camera  Premier Image: Premier PC-600c1998 20204.00The Premier PC600 is a 35mm point-and-shoot camera made by Premier Image of Taiwan and introduced 1998. It has a fixed-focus 38 mm f/3.5 lens. Below the lens is a slide switch which opens or closes the lens and viewfinder covers (it's also the on/off switch of the camera). Below the built-in flash is another slide switch for the flash on/off. A third control is the film speed selector to choose between ISO speeds 100/200 (the same switch position), 400 and 1600. Between this selector and the lens is the small window of the CdS meter which presumably has some automatic exposure control function but at least controls the low-light warning signal, a red LED by the viewfinder eyepiece, which lights when the shutter release is half-pressed. The film is advanced automatically after the shutter is released, and rewinds automatically when the end of the film is reached. The power advance is the only way to advance the film: thus it's necessary to press the release button on the camera's top twice during loading, after laying in the film cassette and closing the film compartment. There is a window in the back cover to show the presence and type of film. There is a frame counter window in the top of the camera and this resets automatically after the film is rewound plus taken out. Above the door are the viewfinder eyepiece together with the flash ready LED and the red low-light indicator LED which is activated by half-pressing the shutter release. The camera needs two AA batteries, which are loaded in the bottom of the camera. This information was gleaned from Wikipedia with minor adjustments. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $1.00 for parts in 2020.

The camera has a curved film plane which means that its lens is of poor quality or has at least a significant curvature of field. The camera was a giveaway promotional gift from household-machine maker Whirlpool in 1998. The box and the vinyl case the camera came with had “Whirlpool microwave ovens” printed on them in very large lettering. The camera was sold under the Premier name and made by the “Premier Camera Taiwan LTD.” (Premier Image) company.

Others include the Ricoh KR-5. While essentially similar to the original KR-5, the "Super" offers a few improvements, including faster f/1.7 and f/2.0 standard lens options. While still limited to 1/8 second as the slowest shutter speed (besides B), the top speed increases to 1/1000 of a second, and the maximum flash sync speed is now 1/125 of a second. While there is still no PC terminal for attaching an external flash, the hot shoe has an additional contact which permits dedicated Ricoh flash units to illuminate a flash-ready LED beneath the viewfinder eyepiece. Another LED faces forward to indicate when the self-timer is counting down before exposure. The camera was introduced in 1978 and was the successor to the original KR. The KR series was one of the lowest priced SLR’s on the market. The camera came with Ricoh Rikenon 1:2 50mm lens and some consider it one of the sharpest 50mm f/2 ever produced. One thing worth mentioning is while basically all K mount lenses (with the exception of those without an aperture ring and the DA digital only lenses) will fit and function on the KR-5 Super, not all Ricoh K mount lenses are compatible with a Pentax body. Information was gleaned from (mycameracabinet.wordpress.com). The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $40.00 in 2016.

Ricoh: Ricoh Shotmaster AF camera  Ricoh: Ricoh Shotmaster AF  20203.00The Ricoh Shotmaster AF is an autofocus point-and-shoot camera for 35mm film, introduced by Ricoh in 1991 in the US along with the Shotmaster AF-P (also known as the AF-66 in Europe) that has a self-timer. The AF-P/AF-66 camera is the upgraded model of the S-30 released two years earlier in 1989. The primitive fixed-speed mechanical shutter on the S-30 was replaced with a variable-speed programmed electrical shutter. The Shotmaster AF’s (AF-p/AF-66) built-in flash automatically activates the dim light warning letting you know to turn on the flash, and the DX-code system can detect a wider range of film speeds. There is also a variant model named AF-66S, which was aimed primarily at the Asian markets. It looks identical to the Shotmaster AF/AF-P/AF-66 and the AF-P/AF-66 share almost the same specifications, but the AF-66S uses a more traditional lever-type self-timer without LED indicator rather than the push button type on the Shotmaster AF-P/AF-66. The cameras have a Ricoh 35mm f/3.9 lens with 3 elements in 3 groups, auto focus from 1.0m to infinity, 1/125 to 1/600 of a second shutter speeds, Reverse Galilean type viewfinder, DX-code system with 100 to 400 ISO speed range with a switch for 1000 ISO non-DX film (on the AF model only), auto film load, auto film advance, auto film rewind plus mid-roll rewind, and low light warning utilizing the flash ready LED. This is all powered by one CR-123A battery or two AA alkaline or manganese batteries. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $0.50 in 2020.

Ricoh: Ricoh Singlex TLS (Focal 1000 TLX) camera  Ricoh: Ricoh Singlex TLS (Focal 1000 TLX)1967 201821.00The Ricoh Singlex TLS is a 35mm MMM (metal, mechanical, manual) single lens reflex camera introduced by Ricoh in 1967. In addition to selling this camera under the Ricoh name, it was also rebranded for sale in France as the Interflex 7L5 and in the United States as the Sears TLS plus the K-Mart Focal TLX at their respective discount department stores. The rarest version is all black with white lettering. Solidly built and heavy, over 2lbs, it offers photographers a precision steel platform that takes commonly found M42 screw mount lenses. It offers shutter speeds from B, 1- 1/1000 of a second from the legendary Copal Metal Square shutter and syncs flash at 1/125 second. The exposure metering a CdS with match needle, stop-down metering, and an on-off switch designed to work with a 1.35v mercury cell, which is no longer available or legal, but they now sell a replacement PX625 alkaline 1.35V battery for about $3.00. The camera has ASA settings of 25 to 1600 and a Copal Square metal blade shutter with speeds of 1 second to 1/1000 of a second +B. It also has PC X and M Sync terminals, single action film advance thumb lever, self-timer, frame counter, a fold down rewind crank handle that is a pull-up release for the film compartment, rewind release button, micro prism, ground glass plus Fresnel focusing screen, Shutter release threaded for cable release, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The dimensions are 147 x 95 x 50mm and the camera was made in Japan. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $35.00 in 2018.
Ricoh: Ricoh Super Shot 24 camera  Ricoh: Ricoh Super Shot 241966 201910.00The Ricoh Super Shot 2.4 dates from 1966. It's a large and heavy camera for a compact. It is not a true viewfinder, nor is it a true rangefinder. In the viewfinder, the user sees a square, which varies in size while focusing. The idea behind this is that the head of the subject should be about the size of the square for a proper focus. This seems to work by all accounts but there is also a viewfinder three-zone focus display and a distance scale on the focusing ring. Exposure can be set to shutter speed priority automatic, or manual control. A battery operated viewfinder light meter needle shows ideal aperture at set shutter speed. The camera has a Rikenon 40mm f/2.4 lens and shutter speeds from 1/30 to 1/300 plus B (bulb). Film speed settings reach from ISO25 to ISO400. The camera also has a clockwork film transport. This and the shutter mechanism only works when the film is inside the camera. Extra options are a flash hot shoe, shutter release button lock, and a self-timer. Other features are a standard cable release socket in shutter release button, a coupled CdS metering cell above lens, 46mm screw thread filter size, manual flash exposure, X-sync hot shoe for all shutter speeds, a separate PC socket, film advance spring drive with a maximum of 12 exposures per wind, frame counter, rewind crank with release button in the center of the motor winder knob, viewfinder with Needle pointer aperture display with two types of zone focus displays, focusing from 3 feet to infinity, and five blade diaphragm stopping down to f/22. The Super Shot 2.4 weighs 652g and size is 133.5mm wide, 81mm high, and 69.5mm deep. The camera pictured here does not work and is worth $4.00 for parts in 2019.

Riken: Ricoh 500 camera  Riken: Ricoh 5001957-1960 201811.00The Ricoh 500 was one of the early relatively inexpensive 35 mm rangefinder cameras to enter the U.S. market in 1957. It had an unusually large (for that time) f/2.8 lens, and shutter speeds from 1 second to 1/500 second. Film was advanced by a rapid-throw "trigger" mechanism on the bottom, and focus was controlled by two buttons, at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions that permitted very rapid shifts of focus when needed for sporting events. Flash could be fired from a "hot shoe" on the top and from a regular socket connection. The red lever selects among M, F, and X flash synchronizations. The shutter button is barely visible over the letter "h" of "Ricoh" on the front of the camera. The two large knobs are designed to let the user's two index fingers rapidly focus the camera while following the action. The hot shoe mount for an external flash unit is top center of the camera. The rapid film advance lever pivots on its right end and is pulled by the extension and folds out of the way near the lens barrel. The bottom of the camera also has a reminder ring for noting the speed of the film currently in use. The camera has a Riken Ricomat lens with a focal length of 4.5 cm and a Seikosha shutter. The rings controlling the effective lens diameter (from f/2.8 to f/22) and the shutter speed are mechanically linked so that once one combination has been matched to the ambient lighting conditions, a faster shutter speed can be selected and a larger effective lens diameter will automatically be set when possible. The two knobs on the bottom lock the film compartment when turned to the C or black arrow. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $25.00 in 2018.
Riken: Ricohflex Model III camera  Riken: Ricohflex Model III1950 201825.00The Ricohflex was a series of 6x6 TLR made by Riken Optical Industries (Ricoh) in the 1950s. The focusing rings around the taking and viewing lens are geared up for synchronous focusing, just as previous Kodak Reflex I/II. Its coated Anastigmat triplet lens provides great result in its class. The Ricohflex has a simple, modular-designed and low-cost box structure. The Ricohflex III was introduced in September of 1950. The Ricohflex III has a pair of similar Ricoh Anastigmat 1:3.5 f=80mm lenses with AR coated. It was the world's first mass-produced twin-lens reflex camera. The production volume was more than 10,000 units per month. Due to the massive production, Riken used a conveyor belt assembly line. The camera pictured is in poor condition but works and is worth $25.00 in 218.
Riken: Ricolet camera  Riken: Ricolet1954  20155.00The Ricoh Ricolet is a 35mm viewfinder camera with a fixed lens made in Japan by Riken Optical Industries starting in 1953. The lens is a 45mm Ricoh Anastigmat 1:3.5 F=4.5cm - 3 elements in 3 groups and made by Tomioka Optical. The leaf shutter is a Riken with speeds of 1/25 of a second, 1/50 of a second, 1/100 of a second and B. The apertures range from f/3.5 to f/16 and the camera is manual focusing. The dimensions are 140mm x 78mm x 67mm and it weighs 580 g. The camera has a shutter release for a plunger attachment and a built-in cold shoe with a flash sync connector on the side of the lens. It also has a ¼” 20 thread tripod female connector to one side of the bottom of the camera. The camera features are a frame counter, a film advance knob with a shutter setting dial, rewind knob, a rewind release button, and a back cover release lever on the bottom. The whole back of the camera slides down and off to reveal the film compartment. You know you have the film in correct if the rewind knob turns when you advance the film. The manual warns against leaving the shutter cocked when not in use. Maybe that is why most of the Ricolet’s suffer from problems with the shutter now that some years have passed. This one pictured here is no exception. The camera on this page is listed in Poor condition and worth $10.00 for parts in 2015. (slow shutter)
Riken: Super Ricohflex camera  Riken: Super Ricohflex1955 201922.00
The Riken Super Ricohflex is a very simple, lightweight twin-lens reflex. The camera was introduced in 1955 and production continued into the early 60s. The Super Ricohflex was made in Japan by the Riken Institute and now known as Ricoh after 1963. The early simple camera uses 120 roll films only but later Super Ricohflex cameras could be converted to use 127 roll films or 35mm film with the right inserts and wind knob attachment. The early Riken shutter has speeds of 1/10 to 1/200 of a second plus B but later models came with 1/10 to 1/300 of a second plus B and possibly 1 second to 1/500 of a second plus B. The 120 film only model had one red window with a sliding metal closer in the back cover but the multi film models had two. The original basic cameras sold for around $20.00 with insert costing $10.00 each and $5.00 for each accessory auto-stop film advance knob. The cameras came with a 3.5/8cm Ricoh Anastigmat taking lens and the same size Ricoh viewer lens. The camera has a manually set shutter, cable shutter release socket, shutter speed indicator, flash attachment socket, cold shoe, 3.5 to 16 aperture settings, 3.5 feet to infinity focus range, ground glass waist high viewfinder with self-erecting hood, wide field magnifier for critical focus, and two hard points to attach a carry strap. The camera also has an eyelevel viewfinder method using two eyes. You open the viewfinder and by looking through the magnifier with one eye you frame the picture with that eye and see the picture with the other outside the viewfinder. The camera pictured here is in poor working condition and worth $10.00 in 2019.

Rollei: Rollei A110 camera  Rollei: Rollei A1101974-1980 201810.00When the Rollei A110 appeared on the market it was advertised as the world's smallest pocket camera. Utilizing the new pocket film standard of the 1970s, the 110 film cartridge, it was the smallest serious camera yet introduced to the market. Heinz Waaske's camera construction team needed 2 years from construction to mass production. In 1974 the prototype of the A110 was a sensation at the camera fair "Photokina" (in Cologne) since it was smaller than the cardboard boxes in which the single pocket films were sold. But mass production was delayed until late 1975. The efforts needed to make that miniature camera consisting of 260 parts and with consistently high quality, was time-consuming. The camera entered the market high-priced at $300.00. By 1978, before its production was moved from Braunschweig to Singapore, it had already reached a lower price level of about $190.00.
The camera has a typical 110 film camera design and has to be pulled open. When it is closed the viewfinder is covered by the camera body and the lens cover is activated, so this pocket camera can really be carried in the pocket. The difference to the average pocket camera is the use of mainly metal parts for its construction. Most of the few plastic parts are made of the durable Delrin (High-Quality Polyoxymethylene). This choice of quality materials was necessary for reaching a high level of miniaturization and quality.
The A110 worked differently than other cameras as the shutter blades are open and the aperture blades are shut before film exposure. The actual exposure begins with the opening of the aperture blades to the programmed f/stop (f/2.8-f/16) and ends with the closing of the shutter blades. Exposure control is also different because the silicon-photo-diode has its own aperture blades whose opening varies as those in the lens. Both apertures are driven by the same mechanical element. Between the aperture opening and the shutter closing the lens's aperture blades are kept in position by an electromagnet. Advancing the film (i.e. closing and opening the camera) resets the aperture and shutter to their original positions. All the electronic components are powered by one PX27 6V battery kept in a compartment on the left side of the camera. The battery is released by pushing the orange latch release to the left of the eyepiece of the viewfinder. You can check the battery by pressing the green button over the viewfinder and if the light located in the same area flashes green the battery is good. Despite the cameras short focal length, the lens focuses from 1 meter to infinity via the orange focusing slide on the camera's front below the lens. A distance scale with a combination of meters/feet figures and symbols is displayed in the viewfinder. In the right hands, with a suitable film such as Verichrome Pan, and the correct photofinishing, the Rollei A110 was capable of making very good 5x7 prints and even passable 8x10s. The camera was manufactured in Braunschweig, Germany from 1974 to1978 (124,000 units), and in Singapore from 1978-1981 (72,000 units). It has a Rollei Tessar 1:2.8/23mm lens and an electronically controlled Rollei-Prontor leaf shutter with speeds of 4 seconds to 1/400 of a second. The camera came with a flash unit that attached to the left side with a very clever one step proses. You mount it simply by pressing it to the side of the camera using the guide pin on the unit. To release it you press the protruding orange button on the flash unit. Anything colored orange on this camera denotes function and is a testament to its design. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $60.00 in 2018.
Rollei: Rolleiflex T camera  Rollei: Rolleiflex T1958-1975 2018100.00You can find many experts past and present on Rolleiflex cameras but the three that come to the top are Claus Prochnow, Ian Parker, and Arthur G Evans. All three meticulously researched the Franke & Heidecke and Rollei-Werke archives but came away with different priorities and styles when naming many cameras. The Rolleiflex T for instance, all three agree that they are Rolleiflex T cameras and two out of the three agree on the number that follows the T for each camera. It then comes down to style and when Prochnow uses “model” Evans uses “type” and Parker just uses a number. The camera pictured here is a Rolleiflex T (Prochnow “model 3”) (Parker “2”) (Evans “type 3”). This T model serial numbers went from 2242000 to 2249999. The Rolleiflex T was produced from 1958 to 1975. It is a 120 film TLR (twin-lens reflex) camera with a Carl Zeiss Tessar f3.5 75mm taking lens with a Synchro-Compur X or MX shutter and a Heidosmat f2.8 75mm viewing lens. The T model came in a few iterations and in the end of production some came with a Schneider Kreuznach Xenar f3.5 75mm taking lens, the same as the Rolleicord (about 3,000 units). If you go by serial numbers issued for the camera, the count of numbers used to produce the Rolleiflex T comes to 260,643 in all its forms. Wiki tops out the number produced at about 120,000. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $400.00 in 2018.

Most of the Sears cameras were branded under the names Seroco or Tower. Sears did not manufacture cameras of its own, but sold those made by other companies, including the Conley Company, which was acquired by Sears in 1910, and which manufactured cameras exclusively for Sears. In 1924 Sears also bought the Seneca Camera company. Shortly after, around 1927, Sears ceased camera production by these companies, and sold their camera assets to the United States Camera Company. However, until around 1967 Sears continued to sell cameras manufactured by others including United States Camera Company. Pho-Tak Corporation, of Chicago, USA, was a manufacturer of simple box cameras. Their name is intertwined with United States Camera, effectively the same company, who produced variations on several Pho-Tak models under different names. The Sears Tower Foldex 20 was one of these cameras. Actually there are four versions of the Foldex. The (United States Camera Company) Rollex 20 is the first of this type and has a small difference in the camera open release button plus does not have a hot shoe. The Sears Tower Foldex 20 and the Pho-Tak Foldex 20 are the same camera with different lens escutcheons with white lettering on black. Later versions of the Pho-Tak Foldex 20 had a plain metal lens escutcheon with black lettering. These cameras were fixed focus, fixed aperture, with a B to 1/50 of a second leaf shutter. The last of these cameras is the Pho-Tak Foldex 30 or Foldex 6.3. This camera has a Steinheil Munchen Cassar 100mm f/6.3 lens and a Vario diaphragm shutter. Although it is called the Foldex 30, nowhere on the camera will you see the number 30 but you will find the 6.3 aperture setting and Foldex does appear on the portrait table support leg. This cameras other differences are that it has a plastic top that encloses the viewfinder, adjustable shutter speeds from B to 1/200 of a second, aperture settings of 6.3 to 22, manual shutter cocking, and the wheel was removed from the shutter release translator. The distinctive characteristic of all these Foldex cameras is that the shutter has to be tripped with a lever that is integrated into the edge of the front door panel. They also can use 120 or 620 film and were produced from 1950-1953 with the Foldex 30 going on till 1962.
Sears Roebuck: Tower Pixie II camera  Sears Roebuck: Tower Pixie IIc1958 201910.00The Sears Roebuck Tower Pixie II camera was introduced in 1958 and made in the U.S.A... The camera uses 127 film, has an integral flash port that uses two AA batteries, a bulb release lever, a switch for color (aperture f11) or black and white (aperture f22) film, an optical viewfinder, a film advance wheel on the bottom, a red view window in the back cover for frame count, a 1/50 of a second rotary shutter, and produced 4x4cm exposures. The Pixie II was at that time delivered by Sears, the most famous mail-order house in the world. Sears Tower (brand name due to the Chicago corporate building) was the highest tower in the world for a certain period. Tower cameras were made by different renowned camera makers of several countries. Some cameras were sold branded Sears and a few under their original manufacturers. This camera could have been made by Imperial or even Kodak. The box kit came with two AAA (penlight) batteries, a roll of 127 films, some AG1 flashbulbs, and cost less than $6.00. The Tower Pixie II is a fixed focused camera also known as Pixie II 127. The lens is about 28mm and the minimum range is 5 feet. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $5.00 in 2019.

Seymour: Flash Master camera  Seymour: Flash Master1942  201912.00The Seymour Flash Master Bakelite viewfinder camera was just one of the cameras in the manufacturing debacle created by the sale of the Utility Manufacturing Company’s Falcon brand. The buyer then moved it and its product to 711/715 West Lake Street, Chicago, home of the Monarck manufacturing Company and Spartus Corporation. This started the complicated Company naming game. Some of the branding names were Falcon, Monarck, Seymour, Herold, Spartus, Galter, and Spencer, Cinex, Photo Master, plus more. This business model was repeated in Taiwan years later and continues today throughout the globe (cheap product with many names and brand names).
The Flash Master camera was marketed by the Seymour Products company in 1942. Designed as a simple candid camera that was capable of shooting under any lighting condition. The photo flash unit had a 4 1/8 inch diameter plated reflector, used two penlight batteries (AA), was electronically operated (synchronized), and used the G.E. Mazda Flash bulbs (the biggest flash bulb on the market with 183,000 lumens)(this same unit is used on Pho-Tak cameras). The camera was constructed of plastic bakelite with a built-in open view finder. It was fitted with a genuine Graf meniscus 50mm lens and flash synchronized time and instantaneous shutter. The shutter lens combination was used on many cameras and if you remove the lens plate you will find the words Photo Master embossed on the plastic. This is a half frame camera with two red windows in the back cover for frame counting and for capturing sixteen exposures on no. 127 or A8 film. The exact camera (Flash Master) can be found with the Herold Products Company Inc. name. The Photo Master Company’s Photo Master Camera with the Bakelite face, is the same camera without the two flash posts. This camera is in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.

Sony: Cyber-shot DSC-P72 camera  Sony: Cyber-shot DSC-P722003 20195.00This camera was introduced in 2003 at a suggested retail price of $349.00. The DSC-P72 is equipped with a glass 3x, 6-18mm lens, equivalent to a 39-117mm lens on a 35mm camera. Normal focus ranges are from approximately 1.64 feet (0.5 meters) to infinity, with a Macro setting that lets you get within four inches (10 centimeters) when the lens is zoomed to its wide angle position, and 19.75 inches (50 centimeters) at its telephoto setting. In addition to automatic focus control, the DSC-P72 offers a total of five fixed focus settings through the Record menu, as well as Center AF and Multi AF focus area options. An AF illuminator lamp on the front of the camera helps focus at low light levels. The DSC-P72 employs a technology that Sony calls "Smart Zoom," which offers a maximum of 3.2x digital zoom. According to Sony, Smart Zoom lets you digitally enlarge the image without any significant loss of image quality. In actuality, "Smart Zoom" simply means that the camera doesn't interpolate the pixels it crops from the center of the CCD array when zooming digitally. This limits the digital zoom range based on the currently-selected image size, with maximum zoom only available at the smallest image size. This is the most reasonable approach to "digital zoom,”. For composing images, the DSC-P72 offers a real-image coupled optical viewfinder and a 1.5-inch color LCD monitor. Exposure is automatically controlled at all times on the DSC-P72. The camera has shutter speeds of 2 seconds to 1/2000 of a second, ISO equivalents (100/200/400) plus an Auto setting, Maximum aperture of f/2.8 to f/5.6, Automatic exposure control, Built-in flash with five modes, USB computer interface, shooting modes of (Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Landscape, Snow, Beach preset), 10-second Self-Timer for delayed shutter release, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2019.

Sony: Cyber-shot DSC-P8 camera  Sony: Cyber-shot DSC-P82003 20183.00Weighing 7.0 ounces, it feels solid and stable in the hand, and all the control dials and buttons are truly responsive. And when you opened the access panel to remove the Memory Stick, the battery remains securely in place. The menu system on the 1.8-inch LCD is sophisticated, with clever but small icons. The DSC-P8 packs a full feature set, including a viewable histogram—a nice touch. There are multiple configurations for white balance (adjusting only to flash is convenient), metering, and exposure, which enthusiasts require. Other notable features include abundant auto settings, multiple video settings (with audio), and the ability to shoot video in macro mode. Sony's 3X optical zoom lens has a 35-mm equivalent of 39 to 117 mm. But the placement of the zoom control feels awkward when you're peering through the viewfinder with your left eye. The camera uses a NP-FC11 InfoLithium rechargeable battery and comes with Sony's proprietary 16MB Memory Stick. Introduced in 2003 the camera was touted high for the class of camera it is a 3.2mp. The camera pictured above is in Fine condition and still has the cardboard Sony tag on it. Unfortunately there was no battery to test the camera so for this reason the camera is worth $5.00 in 2018.

It also has a slide cover that seconds as an on/off switch plus lens, flash, and electric eye cover. The cover is almost as long as the camera and more than half as wide. The power and playback buttons sit to the left of the shutter, while a very small side-to-side zoom slider is on the right of the shutter button. The camera also has a very comprehensive touch screen format. Sony uses the corners of the touch screen to give you access to deeper menus, while icons along the sides let you change commonly used settings, such as exposure compensation, metering, focus, or sensitivity (aka ISO). The DSC-T70 includes face detection and can see as many as eight faces in the scene then uses them to determine focus and exposure. The Smile Shutter feature expands on face detection by first locating a face and then waiting for that face to smile before snapping a picture. To use the feature, you have to enter the Smile Shutter scene mode, then press the shutter button, point at a face and wait for it to smile, and then the camera will take a picture. This feature can be adjusted and works best at the medium setting. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $1.00 for parts in 2019.

The Spartus Co-Flash outfit retailed for $12.95 and only $9.95 for the camera without the gadget bag. The camera also has a machined film advance knob, flashbulb release lever, a screw down battery compartment behind the reflector for two AA batteries, a screw down film compartment, a red window in the back cover for looking at the numbers on the back of the installed film while advancing the film to the next frame, a tall shutter release button, a leaf shutter with a speed of 1/50 of a second, and an permanently attached carry strap. The camera picture here is in XFine condition and worth $30.00 in 2019.
Spartus: Full-Vue camera  Spartus: Full-Vue1948-1960 201510.001948-1960 Poor condition worth $2.00 in 2015
Spartus: Full-Vue camera  Spartus: Full-Vue1948-1960 20178.00The simple Spartus Full-Vue plastic pseudo TLR was made from 1948 to 1960 by American manufacturer Spartus, later Herold Products. This model exposes 2¼" square images on 120 film. The lens of its viewfinder is larger in diameter than its taking lens, giving a bright finder image on the hooded matte screen. The name "Full-Vue" resembles another box camera with big reflecting finder, the British Ful-Vue. In fact, the more direct connection is to the Falcon Magni-View from Utility Mfg. Co. of New York, several of whose models were reissued by Spartus.
Spartus used various metal face-plate designs and plastic moldings over the production period. Early examples were made of Bakelite, although later models may have been other plastics.
The Full-Vue is also seen labeled with "The Spencer Co." or "Galter Products Co." as the manufacturer's name—a nebulous distinction, as all these entities shared the same address on West Lake St. in Chicago. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $12.00 in 2017.
Spartus: Spartus 35 camera  Spartus: Spartus 351947-1954 201711.00The Spartus 35 and Spartus 35 F are a series of 35mm film Viewfinder cameras made by Spartus and then Herold Mfg. co. in Chicago, USA, and produced from 1947 to 1954. The original black version of the body bears a strong resemblance to the Argus A. Later Spartus "35" models from Herold Products switched to a gray & silver body style somewhat reminiscent of the Kodak Pony. Their bodies is Bakelite. There are many different lens & shutter combinations of the Spartus 35 and 35 F. The most expensive model offering an f/3.5 coated Anastigmat lens, four shutter speeds from 1/25 to 1/150 sec. plus T and B. But, commonly the cameras have a simple manual scale focus, one speed shutter (Inst 1/50 / Time) and 50mm f/6.3 (or f/7.7) lens with apertures f/6.3-7.7-11-16. Also, there were many cosmetic variations of the body during its manufacturing period. The "F" designation indicated a top flash sync connector bolts on the top plate. Late Spartus 35 models also have connector holes or bolts for dedicated bulb flash units on the top. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2017.

Spartus: Spartus Box 120 camera  Spartus: Spartus Box 1201950  201712.00The Spartus 120 is a simple box camera made of an early type of plastic called Bakelite in 1950. At the time of the 120’s introduction, a great multitude of relatively inexpensive cameras (including the Spartus 35F) were being manufactured in Chicago by the same factories but sold under a puzzlingly broad range of different but related brands with Spartus being the cornerstone of it all. This very same camera was also sold as the Sunbeam 120 and a brown-colored variant was sold under the name “Spartus 120 Flash Camera” that had two connectors on the top. The 120 utilizes a tube viewfinder that had a piece of glass at each end with no optics. It also has a round red window in the back for frame count, approximately 1/60 of a second shutter, one direction film advance turn knob, approximately 50mm lens, and a handy carry handle. The suggested retail price in 1950 was $3.97. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
Spartus: Spartus Box 120 (box) camera  Spartus: Spartus Box 120 (box)1950 201610.00The Spartus No. 120 Box Camera was manufactured by the Spartus Camera Corp. in circa 1942. A simple and inexpensive box camera constructed of Bakelite with a smart chrome decorated front. Exactly the same as the Spartus No. 116/ 616 camera except in film size. This camera was capable of capturing eight full size 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch pictures on No. 120 size film, as the name implies. It featured two waist level brilliant view finders for vertical and horizontal pictures, an optically ground and polished fixed focus lens, single f5.6 aperture, a leather carry handle, film winder knob, and a simple time and single action 1/50 of a second instantaneous shutter that did not need preloading. The camera was priced at $3.97 in 1942 and had some success though it is not known how many were produced or what year production stoped. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2016.
Spartus: Spartus Box 120 (box) camera  Spartus: Spartus Box 120 (box)1950 20205.00The Spartus No. 120 Box Camera was manufactured by the Spartus Camera Corp. in circa 1942. A simple and inexpensive box camera constructed of Bakelite with a smart chrome decorated front. Exactly the same as the Spartus No. 116/ 616 camera except in film size. This camera was capable of capturing eight full size 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch pictures on No. 120 size film, as the name implies. It featured two waist level brilliant view finders for vertical and horizontal pictures, an optically ground and polished fixed focus lens, single f5.6 aperture, a leather carry handle or vinyl handle, film winder knob, and a simple time and single action 1/50 of a second instantaneous shutter that did not need preloading. There were two camera styles, one camera had a vinyl handle, plain face plate, and time setting on the right over the shutter release and the other had a leather handle, distinctive face plate, and the time setting lever on the left. The camera was priced at $3.97 in 1942 and had some success though it is not known how many of either versions were produced or what year production stopped. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $6.00 in 2020.
Spartus: Vanguard camera  Spartus: Vanguardc1962  201616.00The Spartus Vanguard was made of plastic with a metal face plate, shutter and flash contacts. It uses 127 film and was made by Herold Products of Chicago. The camera has accommodations for a plug-in flash unit and along with the optical viewfinder that separates it from the common box camera. The shutter has one speed of 1/50 of a second and is without double exposure protection. The camera was introduced in 1962 and is the flash version of the Spatus Rocket and looks identical save the different face plate, the two holes for the flash and a "COLOR - B&W" aperture selector. A soft plastic handle was provided and attached to a square hard point buttons on each side of the camera with the button holes at the ends of the handle. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2016.
Superheadz: Plamodel camera  Superheadz: Plamodelc2000s  201515.00 Unique gift for your photography-loving friends, "do it yourself" 35mm camera from Superheadz (sometimes also called LOMO) is completely opposite to the known "explosion" Leica or Nikon cameras.
I am not sure which was the first "build it yourself" camera, but Ansco was producing its Craftsman in 1950.
Building your own camera is fun, but this one can remain collectible only if it still stitting in the original box or a vinyl bag and until it was assembled. This camera comes in the regular black or Moriyama special edition (cow photo on the camera and a bag). The camera pictured here is worth $15.00 in 2015
Tasco: Tasco All Weather camera  Tasco: Tasco All Weather  201910.00The Tasco All Weather is a 35mm film camera developed in the early 1980s, made in China, and distributed by the Concord Camera Company. Concord released cameras under various brand names such as Goldline, Keystone, Apex, Le Clic, Argus or Polaroid. Concord released this weather resistant camera as the Keystone Regency, the Le Clic Tuff 35, and the Tasco All Weather (all three are identical aside from branding). The Tasco Company is best known for microscopes, riflescopes, binoculars, telescopes, and also now known for inexpensive digital motion detect trail cameras. In the late 1970s and early 1980s the company did sell some camera binocular cameras that used 110 film but this (Tasco All Weather) is the only conventional camera with the Tasco name. The camera was for the outdoorsperson and sports enthusiast. Everything is sealed quite well from the elements and it came with a 35mm film tank sealed with an O-ring for the screw on lid. The camera has a built in flash with an on/off switch plus flash ready light, a two position ASA film selector switch for 100/200 ASA or 400/1000 ASA, a Optique color corrected fixed focus f5.6 38mm lens, a sealed shutter release button with a locking switch to prevent accidental exposures, a film view window in the back cover, auto film advance plus rewind, large optical viewfinder, frame counter, and a handy carry strap. The auto film advance, auto rewind, and built in flash are powered by two AA batteries in a compartment accessed at the bottom of the camera. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.
Testrite: Cinelarger 8mm M208 camera  Testrite: Cinelarger 8mm M208  20176.00This Cinelarger permits still prints to be made from either Super 8, 8mm, 16mm or 35mm movie films. The Cinelarger makes negatives from either black and white or color movies on to black and white or color 120 film. 1 5/8” x 2 1/16” negatives can be made from the 8mm film and 2 1/8” x 2 7/8” negatives are obtained from 16mm or Super 8 film. The M-208 Cinelarger camera is good with 8mm or 16mm film and the M-208S with Super 8 film. Also made was an M-205 for 35mm movie film conversion. All three cameras retailed for $18.95 in 1949 and extras could be purchased. A light socket with a clamp was sold and a choice of EBV #2 flood lamp for B&W ($2.99) or a EBW #2 flood lamp for color ($4.15). The Cinelarger was manufactured by Testrite Instrument Company as a means to allow users to create single frame still blowups of home movies. It uses medium format film and the intention was to produce a negative large enough for contact printing although they can be enlarged. The earlier models uses 620 film and the later uses 120 size film. Both films are identical, but used slightly different spools. 620 is no longer available, but 120 film can be re-spooled on to a salvaged 620 spool. According to all accounts the M-208 Cinelarger was introduced in 1948 and sold into the late 70’s. The Testrite visual Company started in the 1920’s as an importer of scientific instruments, Testrite redefined itself during WWII as a manufacturer of products needed for the war effort. They have reinvented themselves many time and today are into visual merchandising. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $15.00 in 2017.
Tokyo Kogaku: Beseler Auto 100 Topcon camera  Tokyo Kogaku: Beseler Auto 100 Topcon1964-1973 201723.001964-1973. 35mm SLR camera. Through-the-lens (TTL) metering. First automatic-exposure SLR camera in the world. Also known as the Topcon Uni and the Hanimex Topcon RE Auto. It's one of the first auto exposure SLR cameras with TTL metering. It is usually bundled with a 53mm f/2.0 six element lens which is compatible with the UV lens mount. It has a Seikosha made shutter with speeds from 1s to 1/500 of a second with B. Flash sync is at 1/60 of a second. It features a needle based TTL center-weighted metering system using a CdS cell. The meter has a range of 5 to 18 EV at (ASA 100), settable to film speeds from 25 to 400 ASA. The shutter speeds in metered shutter priority mode can only use the red shutter indicators down to 1/8 of a second. It uses a 1.35v mercury battery no longer available but has a 1.35V Zinc-Air replacement MRB625. The film transport uses a single stroke film advance lever and a rewind crank with release button. Unlike most later-day SLRs, this camera has a leaf shutter, leading to a more complex exposure sequence. When idle, the mirror is down to block the film from exposure (like an auxiliary shutter), and shutter and aperture are wide open. When the shutter release is pressed, the shutter closes, the aperture stops down, and the mirror turns up. Once the mirror has moved, the shutter opens then closes. The mirror falls down back to block the light pathway as both the shutter and aperture return to their open idle positions. Most of the information here is from camera-wiki.org. The camera pictured here has a Tokyo Kogaku Topcor 135mm f4.0 lens (good condition) worth $10.00, Tokyo Kogaku Topcor 35mm f3.5 lens (good condition) worth $10.00, and the Tokyo Kogaku Topcor 53mm f2.0 lens that came with the camera body when purchased (good condition) $10.00.

Trusite Camera: Trusite Minicam camera  Trusite Camera: Trusite Minicamc1947  20163.00As with many other models dubbed "minicam," this is a model for half-frame 127 format—in other words, images approximately 3×4 cm, achieved by advancing each number on the film's backing paper to a first, then a second red window on the back. The Trusite Minicam is a simple affair with a fixed focus 50mm meniscus lens and an instant/time shutter. The body is cast is metal and in 1947, a kit with the camera, a flashgun, and four flashbulbs sold for $9.95. A version with Girl Scout branding is also known. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.
Trusite Camera Co. of New York City produced a few simple models, all for 127 film, during the 1940s. The lens/shutter assembly seems quite similar to that used on the Utility Manufacturing Company cameras (also from New York).
United States Cameras: Rollex 20 camera  United States Cameras: Rollex 20c1950s 201925.00Introduced in c1950s the USC Rollex 20 is a self-erecting folding camera for shooting 2¼" × 3¼" exposures on 120 film. Some versions are able to accept both 120 and 620 rollfilm variants. It was made by the Chicagoan United States Camera Co. A version was sold as the Tower 50 folding by Sears (there is a Tower 50 35mm also). The Rollex 20 was a simple snapshot camera, with fixed focusing and a fixed 5.6 aperture. The only choice that it offers is the one between time mode (really Bulb mode but marked TIME) and 1/50 of a second shutter speed. It has an optical viewfinder of reverse Galilean type, and an 86mm Octvar lens. Its specialties are that its ever set shutter has to be tripped with a lever that is integrated into the upper edge of the front door or lens bed. Pho-Tak also sold the Rollex 20 plus the Foldex 20 and they were the same or an equal camera type that included an accessory shoe and flash synchronized shutter. The successor of the Rollex 20, the USC 20 folder, is similar to the later Foldex 20 from Pho-Tak, which has a restyled viewfinder housing. Other features of the USC Rollex 20 were a table top fold out foot for portrait exposures, film advance knob, rewind knob, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket for portrait exposures in the lens bed. The Rollex 20 camera was originally priced at $9.95 without the case. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.
United States Cameras: Simplex 45 camera  United States Cameras: Simplex 451968 20205.00This camera was introduced in 1968 and used the Kodak 126 cassette film format. It has an aluminum body with the bottom front being black plastic. It also uses flash cubes that need to be turned manually to the next flash bulb. The Simplex 45 has motorized frame advance, shutter speeds of 1/50 to 1/200 of a second, selenium meter with a needle in the viewfinder, a film view window in the back cover for frame count, and an eye level optical viewfinder. The cameras battery compartment holds two AA batteries that power the flash cube socket. USC made two esthetically different models that are mechanically identical. One with the SIMPLEX 45 logo and MOTORIZED-ELECTRIC EYE under that on one side plus a specialized placard with a US icon and MADE IN USA under the icon. The other model has United States Camera with the USC logo under that on one side and SIMPLEX 45 on the other. The United States Camera Corporation was based in 17 North Loomis Street, Chicago 7, Illinois (U.S.A.). It was an alternate name of the Pho-Tak Corporation, at the same address. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $10.00 in 2020.
United States Cameras: Vagabond 120 Everyready Flash camera  United States Cameras: Vagabond 120 Everyready Flash1951 20195.00The Vagabond 120 Eveready Flash is a simple box camera for 6x9cm images from 120 film, made by USC (United States Cameras) in Chicago in 1951. An identical camera branded Life Time 120 from "Life Time Mfg. Co. Inc., Chicago, Ill." also exists and was produced from 1948 and into the 1950s. One more version appears to be named Time Traveler 120 by the Pho-Tak Corporation; however, it is misnamed because "time" actually labels the instant/time pull out selector tab behind it so it is really just the Traveler 120. Some of the Traveler 120s had a top mount instant/time switch and this is still called the Time Traveler 120 with no time in the name. On all the camera examples with flash sync (some labeled "Synchro Flash" around the lens), the selector for Instant or Time is located at the top of the lens board like the Vagabond 120. They are all just a point-and-shoot camera in the most literal sense. They have one shutter speed, one aperture, and a single lens. All three cameras have a shutter speed 1/50th of a second, use 120 films, and have a 110mm f5.6 Zellar lens. The cameras were meant to use ASA 100 film in daylight conditions outdoors and indoors with a flash connected. Some of the Vagabond 120s and the Traveler 120s had the flash contacts on the side of the shutter assembly while others of the brands had them on the top. The United States Cameras Corporation and Life Time Manufacturing Company were based in 17 North Loomis Street, Chicago 7, Illinois (U.S.A.). They were apparently an alternate name of the Pho-Tak Corporation, at the same address. The Pho-Tak business plan was to be its own competition. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $8.00 in 2019.

Universal Camera: Meteor camera  Universal Camera: Meteor1949 201715.00The Universal Meteor is a 620 film camera produced by the Universal Camera Corporation in New York City, NY. While McKeown's dates it as circa 1949. it was definitely being advertised, for a price of $15, as early as 1947. The plump streamlined body has a pull-out lens tube with a coated lens, which can be estimate focused from infinity to 5 feet. The self-resetting shutter offers "instant" and "bulb" speeds, selected with a I /B lever atop the lens barrel. The camera has four apertures of f/11, f/16, f/22 and f/32; it uses an extinction meter, and has a table on a metal plate affixed to the top to show four Weston film speeds of 25, 50, 100 and 200. A photographer today may find the sunny 16 rule to be more reliable. The camera back does not open, but instead a loading chamber drops out from the bottom. The camera exposes 2¼" square images (6×6 cm). It can be used with 120 film re-spooled onto 620 spindles. The Meteor also has a single pole hot shoe that will work with a more modern flash unit. The camera pictured above is in good condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Universal Camera: Univex Model AF camera  Universal Camera: Univex Model AFc1935 201516.00The UniveX Model AF is a smaller camera, measuring 2-1/8” x 4” x 7/8” when closed. The shutter has only two settings, I and T (instant and time). The lens has but a single stop, and was clearly designed for outdoor use. However, for Universal’s target demographic, this was no problem. Amateur photography in those days precluded the use of flash, and the UniveX AF was a viable competitor to Kodak’s offerings at a lower price. The 1935 camera was offered in four colors – black, brown, green, and blue. In 1936, Universal produced a Girl Scout version of the camera, which was listed in the Official Girl Scout Catalog for the price of $1.00. Kodak’s Girl Scout Kodak was also listed, at a price of $6.00. Bearing in mind that the Depression was still in full swing in 1936, one can only imagine that the UniveX Girl Scout Camera attracted a significant following. In 1938, an improved version was introduced, bearing a single button bellows release and a new color scheme (black and green vs. the former all-green model). The little UniveX Model A was also listed in the Official Girl Scout Catalog from 1933 on, at a price of 35 cents. Other special versions of the Model AF were produced as premiums and corporate giveaways. “The Hollywood Camera” was a special version about which little is known – it carried no UniveX markings at all, and no documentation of its production exists. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $20.00 in 2015.
unknown companies: Accoutrements Pop Cam camera  unknown companies: Accoutrements Pop Cam  20167.00It's not just a photograph, it's a work of Pop Art! The Pop Cam introduced in 2003, produces photos that mimic the image repetition and saturated color palettes of famous pop artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein. One snap of the Pop Cam takes four pictures in the span of one second and preserves them in four different hues on one single print. Each 4" x 2-1/2" x 1-1/2" (10.2 cm x 6.4 cm x 3.8 cm) plastic camera uses any standard 35mm film and has no flash. With some imagination and a little experimentation you might capture that perfect Pop Cam picture that will lead to your fifteen minutes of fame. Instructions included. This is a reusable 35mm camera requiring no batteries because it doesn’t have a flash so it is really better used outdoors with a 200 ISO film – or higher for much better results. You need proper light in order to bring out the colors. Each of the four lenses is made of colored plastic, so you end up with four tinted semi-identical pictures on the same piece of film: green, yellow, red and blue. The exposure takes little over one second, so when you’re subject moves, or you move the camera, you’ll record that movement. The shutter speed is 1/60 of a second and the plastic lenses are about 50mm. It takes 4 pictures in succession within roughly one second, clockwise from the bottom left to the bottom right. This is achieved by a spring loaded mechanism on the inside, which gets wound up when you advance the film with the right thumb film advance wheel. The lenses each use 25% of one 35mm film frame. The camera pictured here is in New condition and worth $8.00 in 2016.

unknown companies: Accoutrements Splitcam camera  unknown companies: Accoutrements Splitcam  202010.00This is a novelty camera for children 4 years and older or adults that would like a double exposed picture at the split point of a frame. The camera works best outdoors in bright daylight with 35mm ISO 200 or higher film. You have to ask for 4x6 prints when you have a photo finisher develop your film and have them use the Normal C-41 process. The camera is NOT equipped with a flash and needs no batteries. The Split Cam was made in China for Accoutrements Company and introduced in 2004. The split-cam uses, what they are calling, analog image fusion technology to combine the images for you without all the hassle and expense of digital editing software. The camera morphs two distinct images into one composite picture. Simply line up the top subject of your picture, click once, line up the second subject, click again and Presto...you've fused the two images together inside the camera. The camera has two cropping slide devices for the lens and two for the viewfinder. This must be the analog image fusion technology! The other features are a frame counter, a fold down rewind crank handle, rewin release button, thumb wheel film advance, and a shutter release button.

unknown companies: ADI AW-35 camera  unknown companies: ADI AW-35  202015.00This is a 35mm camera made by a company in China sometimes using the Argus name circa 1980s. They made the 110 film camera the “Argus Wet-110” also labeled the “ADI Wet-110” in the same time frame. Both the 110 version and the 35mm camera instructions do not mention any underwater capability, only that they are all weather cameras. The “ADI Sports F” flash unit fits both cameras and uses two AAA batteries. The ADI AW-35 Sports Film advance is via a right hand thumbwheel and this will cock the shutter with or without film. The camera has a frame counter in the bottom that is reset manually and can be accessed only when you open the back film cover. Pictures are composed through a foldable bracket (no optics) viewfinder on top. The camera comes with 34 mm f 4.5 lens and two aperture settings that have a lever in the front of the camera that points to a sun icon or a combination cloud flash icon. Other features are a rewind release button in the middle of the film advance wheel, rewind crank on the top of the camera, and a nylon braded carry strap. The camera was probably design as an underwater camera but failed so it was sold as an All Weather and Pool Side camera. I also cannot find a 35mm version rebranded with the Argus name like the 110 version. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 with the flash unit in 2020.
unknown companies: ADI Wet-110 (Argus Wet-110) camera  unknown companies: ADI Wet-110 (Argus Wet-110)  202010.00The Argus (ADi) Wet-110 has a cheerful yellow front with a black film compartment cover in back and was produced in the late 1970s early 1980s. The camera uses 110 cartridge film. 110 film has been out of style for a while but you can still buy 110 film from www.Lomography.com and there are labs that will still develop it for you including www.thedarkroom.com. The simple drop-in cartridge (126, 110) was a response to consumer complaint that loading conventional 35mm could be difficult. The answer was in these cartridges that unfortunately seldom yielded a very good picture due to film quality used to make them. In the case of the Argus Wet-110, it enabled designers to create one of the smallest underwater cameras ever seen. The camera is more plentiful in its ADi name of ADi Wet-110. It was possibly a Promotional camera for ADi (Analog Devices, Inc.) (Also known as “Analog”) that is an American multinational semiconductor company founded in 1965 and has design centers located worldwide. The camera came in two colors of blue and yellow, the yellow being the underwater preferred color for most camera manufactures. The cameras were made in Taiwan along with the “Wet-f” flash unit that attaches to the side of the cameras using two electrical contact points (powered by two AAA batteries) and mounting to the hinge pin for the back cover. Other features are a fold down "sports" viewfinder mounted on top of the camera, a frame count rear window, a shutter speed switch in the front of the camera (Sun & cloud/flash), a carry strap attach point, a film advance turn knob, and a right handed shutter release button. The instructions boasted a depth maximum of 33 feet (10.06 m) and the camera is not much bigger than the film it surrounds. The camera kit came with the camera, flash unit, carry strap, instruction pamphlet, registration card, user’s pamphlet, and cloth carry bag with a Velcro keep, all packed in a box. The Argus labeled rendition was in competition in its later years of production with the Hanimex Amphibian 110 MF of similar size but the Hanimex had a few more features including a built in flash and was made in Japan. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2020

unknown companies: Crystar camera  unknown companies: Crystarc1950s  201910.00This model of Mini Camera was manufactured in Hong Kong during the 1970s. This is a very low-end model replica of the Arrow Camera previously made in Japan. This model existed in different colors like blue, red, green or black. It uses 17.5mm, 14 x 14mm exposure film. The term "HIT" has come to mean any camera with features similar to the original model -- even if made by another manufacturer. The definition of a HIT camera is generally a camera with a single shutter speed, a fixed-focus lens, using 17.5mm paper-backed film, a body style similar to the original HIT, a fixed aperture, and it produces a 14x14mm image. But there are many cameras that come close to this definition, so what is and isn't a HIT is arguable. These 17.5mm cameras are also sometimes called Mycro (or Micro) or Midget cameras after other common nameplates. The film and format are sometimes called Mycro, as well. Not all 17.5mm cameras are HIT-type cameras, and not all HIT-type cameras use 17.5mm film. Some "HIT" cameras use 16mm film, so it is all quite muddled. For a very impressive list of Hit type cameras, visit www.subclub.org. The camera pictured here with the original case is in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2019.
For all cameras of this type named HIT type, there is a book with a very complete CD: The HIT Project 2003 from Mike Parker. In this book, Mike Parker classifies these devices in several families in relation to their characteristics.

unknown companies: Lockheed Martin Management Club camera  unknown companies: Lockheed Martin Management Clubc1990s  201610.00This camera had to be a giveaway at one of the many fund raisers the club has. The company logo can be seen on the front of the camera that is incased in a two piece locking case. This is an underwater camera with a bracket viewfinder as well as an optical viewfinder for land. The camera can be removed from the case and used as is. The camera has about a 38mm lens and uses regular 35mm film. It also has a built in lens cover, built in flash unit, flash ready LED by the optical viewfinder, flash on/off switch, frame counter, auto focus, auto film advance, auto rewind, and comes with a handy carry strap attached to the water proof case. The camera was made in China and looks like every other plastic 35mm camera of the 90’s plus. The water proof case does have a class flat lens that is screwed down with a ring seal that covers the lens (nice touch). The entire assembly looks to be only good for a very shallow dive, no more than 10 feet. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2016.
unknown companies: Lomo DIY Dual Lens kit camera  unknown companies: Lomo DIY Dual Lens kit  202015.00I will warn you that many copies of the Recesky that are on the internet and the quality is dismal at best. The LOMO DIY Dual Lens Reflex Camera Retro Classic TLR 35mm Twins Photos Play Hobby for $14.77 from ShenZhen, China is one of them. This is a reversed engineered copy of the Recesky that has the exact same parts without the quality and they just don’t work. The parts for the shutter assembly are so poorly made that you are unable to make them work no matter how many hours you spend on them. The two lenses are packed together in the same plastic bag with no separation and as a result the lenses are scratched. Danger Will Robison! The frame alignment assembly gears and absent tolerances were destined for failure. The thing pictured here is in non-working condition and worth $.25 for display in 2020.
unknown companies: Looney Tunes Mil-Looney-Um camera  unknown companies: Looney Tunes Mil-Looney-Um  20174.00Released by Warner Brothers in the year 1999, this is a 110 film cartridge camera shaped like a small can. Pictured on the camera is the Tasmanian Devil (TAZ), Silvester plus Tweety, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and the Coyote without the Road Runner but the Road Runner is on the original box. Also on the camera and box are fireworks celebrating the new millennium thus the name “Mil-Looney-um”. The camera has a film view window in the back for frame count, optical view finder, a left thumb draw film advance wheel, and a handy built in carry strap. At this same time they released a Mil-Looney-um 2000 pendant, shirt with Bugs plus Daffy, coffee cup, lunch box, pin badge, bean bags (many characters), set of glasses, Back Packs, and a two collectable coin set that is worth far more now than in 1999. There also was a cartoon with all the Warner Brothers characters partying at the Mil-Looney-um 2000 dance. The camera came with the box, small warranty card, and a one sided instruction pamphlet in English only. Judging by the viewfinder the lens is about 28mm and the camera is for daytime use only without a flash socket or any way to attach one.

unknown companies: MegaView Hot Shot camera  unknown companies: MegaView Hot Shot  20172.00The MegaView Hot Shot is a cheap 35mm focus free compact camer with a built in flash. The camera has a built in three position lens cover (closed/open/open with flash), large optical view finder, flash ready LED, frame counter, fold down film rewind crank handle, right thumb film advance wheel, one AA battery compartment, and a handy strap attach point. It has a “Made In China” sticker on the bottom but no company name. It is lite and weighs in without film at 4.27 ounces. The camera was made in the late 1990’s and probably stole the idea from the Bell and Howell Big Finder (BF) series of cameras that began in the early 1990’s. The camera has no suggestion for the ASA or ISO but it’s safe to say 100 in daylight to 400 with flash. This camera had a battery left in it that leaked and took out the flash capability. For this reason I have it listed in poor condition with a small p on poor because it still works without the flash. The camera is worth $1.50 in 2017.
unknown companies: Mini 110 camera  unknown companies: Mini 110 20204.00This is a very light mauve 110 cartridge film camera probably made in China.

Other features are an eye to attach a wrist carry strap on the right of the camera, a left handed index finger film advance wheel, and a shutter release button. It was probably made in the late 80s or early 90s. It also came with an instruction pamphlet that alternates back and forth from English and Spanish. Although New the camera pictured here is in Poor condition and not working and worth 10 cents in 2020.
unknown companies: Mini-camera camera  unknown companies: Mini-camerac1950s 20185.00This model of Mini Camera was manufactured in Hong Kong during the 1970s. This is a very low-end model replica of the Arrow Camera previously made in Japan. This model existed in different colors like blue, red, green or black. It uses 17.5mm, 14 x 14mm exposure film. The term "HIT" has come to mean any camera with features similar to the original model -- even if made by another manufacturer. The definition of a HIT camera is generally a camera with a single shutter speed, a fixed-focus lens, using 17.5mm paper-backed film, a body style similar to the original HIT, a fixed aperture, and it produces a 14x14mm image. But there are many cameras that come close to this definition, so what is and isn't a HIT is arguable. These 17.5mm cameras are also sometimes called Mycro (or Micro) or Midget cameras after other common nameplates. The film and format are sometimes called Mycro, as well. Not all 17.5mm cameras are HIT-type cameras, and not all HIT-type cameras use 17.5mm film. Some "HIT" cameras use 16mm film, so it is all quite muddled. For a very impressive list of Hit type cameras, visit www.subclub.org. The camera pictured here with the original box is in fine condition and worth $20.00 in 2018.
For all cameras of this type named HIT type, there is a book with a very complete CD: The HIT Project 2003 from Mike Parker. In this book, Mike Parker classifies these devices in several families in relation to their characteristics.

unknown companies: Nickelodeon Photo Blaster camera  unknown companies: Nickelodeon Photo Blaster  202012.00The Nickelodeon Photo Blaster (Long Hall Technologies model N6800) is a compact toy camera which has the useful feature of being able to take four images onto a single 35mm frame of film, one shot at a time. The camera uses standard 35mm film, and has a built-in viewfinder and flash, and two fixed lenses. The camera was introduced in 1997 and was manufactured until 1999 by Long Hall Technologies of Farmingdale, NY, and sold new for approximately $40 retail. Instead of 24 shots on a standard 24-exposure 35mm roll, the Photo Blaster creates a tetraptych (a photo arranged into four parts). In this way it can get 96 shots from a 24 exposure roll of film. Unlike the Lomo Action Sampler camera, which takes four exposures in one second, the Photo Blaster allows each of the four exposures to be taken one at a time. Photo quality is limited by the fixed-focus lens. Its primary function is as a camera for kids. The flash however has a 2.5 second recovery time and that is not a toy. Other features are a fold down rewind crank, rewind release button on the bottom, and a sliding lens cover that is also the on/off switch. An identical camera (with a different color scheme) was sold by GoPhoto Inc. in Congers, NY, between 2009 and 2012, and sold directly from the GoPhoto web site as the GoPhoto X-treme Pix Quad Shot Camera, at an original retail price of $17.95. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2020.

unknown companies: Panorama Wide Pic camera  unknown companies: Panorama Wide Pic  20172.00This almost all plastic 35mm camera was produced in the 1980’s and probably cost about $10 new with film in it. The only metal in it is the odd screw that may have been used. The camera has a viewfinder, thumb wheel film advance, frame counter on the top right, about a 28mm plastic lens, fold out film rewind crank, film release button, back cover release, a slide lens built in lens cover, focus free 35mm outdoor camera label on the front, and a handy non removable string carry strap. This is as close to a toy as you can come with a working camera. This is not a true Panorama camera because it crops the 35mm film internally and only uses a percentage of a full frame. When you take a used roll of film to a photo finisher, you have to order panoramic prints. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $4.00 in 2017.

unknown companies: Photomatic Hi-Speed camera  unknown companies: Photomatic Hi-Speed  20195.00The Hi-Speed uses 126 cartridge film introduced by Kodak in 1963 and the Hi-Speed name denotes the speed of loading the camera. The last 126 film cartridge was produced by Ferrania in Italy under the Solaris brand name in 2007. The camera was probably introduced in the late 1960s or early 1970s and the styling reflects that time frame. It was made in Hong Kong and came with either a silver with black lines or wood grain face plate. The camera has a slide lock on one side of the back cover to open the film compartment that is hinged on the opposite side. The back cover has the usual window in it to observe the film backing for frame count. New, the camera came in a small box with the camera in a sealed plastic bag, a detached wrist strap, a soft plastic lens cover, and instruction booklet. The camera has a right thumb film advance wheel, optical viewfinder, a fixed focus (about 28mm) lens, a shutter (about 1/60 of a second) release lever on the side of the lens assembly, and two aperture settings of about f8 and f11 (changed with a slide switch on the side of the lens assembly) . The camera also has what looks like a light meter over the lens but it’s fake. The camera in the box probably cost around $5.00 when new. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $5.00 in 2019.

unknown companies: Recesky TLR DIY Kit camera  unknown companies: Recesky TLR DIY Kit  202012.00This is a 68 piece build it yourself twin lens camera. All the parts are provided for you and you assemble it. The original is quite a joy to build and can be built in an hour as the instruction imply. It is constructed of all mold injected plastic parts with 4 small springs, one ¼” 20 thread nut, and 16 tiny screws being the only metal. The viewfinder is made up of a 45-degree-angled mirror (hence the “reflex”), a matte focusing screen on top of the camera, and a pop-up hood around it. The shutter speeds could be anywhere from 1/50 of a second up to 1/250 second and you had to learn how to produce a decent phot with it. Film speed selection, focusing for the taking lens, and distances are all battles you need to win. The kit is an excellent educational tool. Seeing how a functioning camera is put together– from the lenses, to the mirror, to the shutter mechanism– has a way of clearing your head and getting back to basics. The camera has an f/11 aperture provided by a plate installed during construction (f/5.6 if left out). The lens is a fixed, 50mm, single plastic element, with a focusing distance of approximately 40 cm (15.7 inches) to infinity. The camera uses 35mm film and recommends a minimum 200 ISO but that depends on the shutter speed. The camera was made in China and is listed on the box as Recesky Cam-6001. I will warn you that many copies are on the internet and the quality is dismal at best. The LOMO DIY Dual Lens Reflex Camera Retro Classic TLR 35mm Twins Photos Play Hobby for $14.77 from ShenZhen, China is one of them. This is a reversed engineered copy of the Recesky that has the exact same parts without the quality and they just don’t work no matter how many hours you spend on them. The parts for the shutter assembly are so poorly made that they hardly resemble those of the Recesky. The two lenses are packed together in the same plastic bag with no separation and as a result the lenses are scratched. Danger Will Robison! The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2020.

unknown companies: Smart Living One Time Use 35mm camera  unknown companies: Smart Living One Time Use 35mm  20172.00The cameras are marked “Made In China” and most onetime use cameras from China are made by Huayuanda Electronic Co. Ltd and distributed here in the US by Foodhold USA Inc... The cameras have preloaded 35mm color film giving the user 27 exposures. They also have about a 28mm fixed focus lens, flash on button for the built in flash, flash ready LED, optical viewfinder, right thumb frame advance wheel, and a right hand shutter button. The cameras use a single AA battery to power the flash unit and were produced about 2010. The film is fully extended in the cameras and the user exposes a frame then accentually rewinds to the next frame. This cleverly gives the photo finisher a rewound cartridge of film. This will be the last time I enter One-Time use cameras here. The cameras pictured here are in new condition and worth $3.00 each in 2017.

unknown companies: Sunpet 110 Pocket camera  unknown companies: Sunpet 110 Pocket  20172.00Sunpet Industries Limited is a company based in Hong Kong, and with manufacturing plants in mainland China, which produces a variety of optical goods, ranging from cheap novelty items to quite serious binoculars and telescopes. The firm was established as Sunny Industries in 1972, and changed to the current name in 1980. The company has made a number of simple cameras for 120, 35 mm, 126 and 110 film. Sunpet made the Vivitar Ultra-Wide and Slim cameras. Some 35 mm cameras are still listed among the firm's current products. The early 1980’s Sunpet 110 Pocket camera was also called the Sunpet 501. It is an inexpensive 110 camera for outdoor use with no flash capability. It was produced in red, pink, and a light greenish yellow. 110 film was introduced by Kodak in 1972. 110 is essentially a miniaturized version of Kodak's earlier 126 film format. Each frame is 13 mm × 17 mm (0.51 in × 0.67 in), with one registration hole to stop on the next frame. The film is fully housed in a plastic cartridge, which also registers the image when the film is advanced. There is a continuous backing paper, and the frame number and film type are visible through a window at the rear of the cartridge and a window is provided in the sunpet camera as all 110 film cameras. The camera pictured here is in New condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

unknown companies: Under Water camera camera  unknown companies: Under Water camera  20173.00This is probably the cheapest underwater 35mm camera ever constructed. You could only safely take this to 3 feet before it would leak. The camera body is as close to a one use as has ever been seen. The camera does have a larger than normal optical viewfinder and a fold down frame viewfinder for use underwater. It also has a film advance knob, frame counter, 28mm focus free lens, shutter release button, and a large yellow rubber band carry strap. This is a poolside camera released in the 90s. It has no labeling nor does it have any identifying markings. The casing is set-up like Tupper Ware with the bottom having an O-ring to seal it and four stays, two on either side. It also has an O-ring for the film advance knob and one for the shutter release plunger to keep out water. It is difficult to change film once the camera is removed from the container. The camera has no flash capability although a flash capable version must exist because this one has it imprinted in the camera and a blank cover where an on/off should be. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $5.00 in 2017.
unknown companies: VuPoint Solutions DC-ST160-VP camera  unknown companies: VuPoint Solutions DC-ST160-VP  20195.00This digital kid’s camera was released in 2006 and came packaged with a software CD, user’s manual, AAA battery, carry strap, and USB cable.

The camera does boast that you can take up to 200 pictures but you would have to be at its lowest setting for image quality. The provided software is compatible with Windows 98, SE, 2000, ME, and XP. It is also compatible with Macintosh OS 9.0 and 10.0. The camera also has a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket and can be used as a Web camera.

unknown-companies: IBSOR DRP camera  unknown-companies: IBSOR DRP  201935.00I have put close to a year off and on into finding information on this camera. The shutter assembly was used by many camera manufacturers and produced from 1013 to 1933. It is an IBSOR D.R.P. with the AGC emblem and has speeds of 1 second to 1/100 of a second with B plus T. The speeds are adjusted at the dial on the front top of the shutter assembly. It also has a screw-in plunger socket and a return spring reloaded shutter release quite modern for the time. The lens is a Doppel Anastigmat Jaconar 4.5/135 mm made by Jos.Schneider & Co. in Kreuznach (Bad Kreuznach district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany). The Aperture scale is 4.5, 6.3, 9, 12.5, 18, 25, and 36 and the serial number for the assembly is 189448. This is a 9x12cm Photo plate camera with a minimum shooting distance of 1.5 m. The best guess I have is that it is a Henning camera ((Rhaco (Richard Henning and Co)) because of the rail bed release knobs plus the front standard adjuster knob and the rail bed adjuster knob. This camera has one of the latter shutters but not the latest because the top speed is 1/100. That dates the camera to probably around 1928 to 1930. The camera also has an adapter to convert the tripod socket from 3/8” 16 thread to ¼” 20 thread in the portrait socket only. This tells us the camera was used in a tripod at some point. It could be a Wauckosin, Henning, Ihagee, Voigtlander, or any of the brands of that era. It could be a demonstrator model or a camera a factory worker made for themselves. No matter what brand it is well built. The camera pictured here is worth $100.00 in 2019.

Some of the brands included; Hanimex, Taron, B&A (Burstein & Applebee) and Viceroy. This model the Viceroy Auto 35 was also sold as the Taron Auto-EE, the Hanimex 35 Auto-EE and the B&A Auto-EE was introduced in 1963. It is a sturdy rangefinder camera with a Citizen MVL shutter. It uses a CdS light meter with Cadmium Sulphide Cells powered by a 1.3 volt mercury battery kept behind a screw in cap on the left hand side of the camera and left of the optical viewfinder. The 45mm f1.8 lens is of a good quality and amber coated to reduce refraction. The shutter has speeds from 1 second to 1/500 of a second and Bulb. Other features are the single lever action film advance, accessory cold shoe, PC socket in the lens, rewind release button, fold down rewind crank that is also releases the film when the assembly is pulled all the way up, aperture of 1.8 to 16 plus an auto setting, carry strap hard points, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod socket.

Vivitar: CV35 camera  Vivitar: CV35c1980s 20173.00The Vivitar CV35 is a fixed-focus, plastic 35mm film camera marketed by Vivitar. It was introduced in early 1999, with a Vivitar press release calling it "an ideal first camera for young people and beginning photographers". The CV35 retail pack available on the market circa 2000 carried the copyright date ©1998, and sold for about USD $12, including one AA battery and a starter roll of film. Its most notable feature is a see-through translucent body, in clear or several colors of plastic—perhaps reflecting the design influence of Apple Computer's 1998 "gumdrop" iMacs. Variants under other Vivitar model designations are known. The camera also has a built in lens cover, a low-powered integrated flash, flash ready LED, flash on/off switch, optical viewfinder, frame counter, one shutter speed, a small aperture, and a film view window in the back cover. The CV35 might be considered to fall into the toy camera category, but its two-element lens raises it somewhat above the generic Taiwan junk camera. The AA battery needed to power the flash is cleverly fitted into the core of the film take-up spool. As with many cameras in this class, film must be present and engaged with a toothed sprocket thumb wheel in order for to cock the shutter, a "fail safe" design against miss-loaded film and double exposure. The original manual is strangely cavalier in suggesting film speeds from ISO 100 to ISO 1000, reflecting how reliant cameras like this are on the exposure latitude of color negative emulsions. The manual does note that slower films limit the flash range (under 8 feet with ISO 100 film); it also helpfully advises that even after the red "flash ready" light glows, it is best to wait a little while longer before actually shooting. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $10.00 in 2017.

Vivitar: Vivitar IC 101 camera  Vivitar: Vivitar IC 1011992 20201.00Among the many plastic \"focus free\" 35mm cameras sold by Vivitar, the IC 101 is unusual in being permanently fixed in a panoramic image format. The camera has a fixed focus 28mm lens, fixed 1/125 leaf shutter speed and f/8 aperture. There is no flash hot shoe. The camera came in two color variants, all black and all silver. As with other plastic 35mm panoramic cameras, the panoramic image is not achieved by exposing a wider image than the standard 24 x 36 mm frame. Instead, the film gate is permanently masked to an image size of 13 x 36 mm, blocking much of the film area. Photo processors were expected to enlarge this cropped image into wider-than-standard prints. The IC 101 Panorama is small, compact, and solidly built camera. It features a frame counter, protective lens cover (that locks the exposure button so you can’t take accidental shots), and a curved back plate to correct for some of the spherical aberrations caused by the focus free lens. Other features of the camera are the eye level optical viewfinder, fold down rewind crank handle, handy carry strap, and it only weighs 100 g (3.5 oz.). To take advantage of the panorama feature you need to let the photo finisher know so he can use the proper procedure to get your intended end result. Much of the information in this blurb was gleaned from Camera-wiki.org. The camera pictured here is new condition and is worth $10.00 in 2020.

Vivitar: Vivitar PN2011 camera  Vivitar: Vivitar PN2011c1994 20202.00Introduced in 1994 The Vivitar PN2011 is a 35mm fixed-focus panoramic camera marketed by Vivitar during the great panorama craze of the 1990’s. The low-quality, plastic camera has a 28mm fixed-focus lens, fixed shutter speed of 1/125 and aperture of f8. The camera's panoramic mode crops the 35mm frame to a panoramic aspect and crops the viewfinder simultaneously. This mode is optional, and there is a switch on top of the camera for normal or panoramic mode. It is not considered a true panoramic camera since the resulting frame is merely cropped vertically but is not any larger horizontally than a conventional 35mm frame. This camera remains very popular because it's inexpensive, needs no batteries, and is easy to disassemble and modify. Common modifications include conversion to a pinhole camera, adding bulb mode, adding multiple exposure capabilities, and reversing the built-in lens to get fisheye-like results. Other methods of fisheye conversion include replacing the lens with a door "peep hole" security lens, or adapting wide angle lenses made for cell phone cameras. Most Vivitar PN2011 units have two tone champagne and black coloring but a small number are silver with translucent blue plastic in place of the black faceplate. The camera was sold under the name SupaPix PN2011 and Reader's Digest sold the same camera under the name Reader's Digest PN 919 Crash Camera, so named because they suggested carrying it in your car in case you needed to take photos as evidence for your insurance company after an auto accidence. The Reader’s Digest version is white with a black faceplate and back cover. Other features of the camera were a built-in sliding lens cover, frame counter, fold down rewind crank handle, rewind release button, film cartridge view window in the back cover, wrist carry strap, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $5.00 in 2020.

The later model also had nickel trimmed body edges and a folding frame finder, which the original (1929) lacks. Both have a leatherette covered body with three-point front cell focusing (Landscape, Group and Portrait, written in German in red letters below the lens), and a Voigtar lens. The 1929 version has a 7.7/12cm lens in a Vario shutter while the 1930 version sports a 6.3/10cm lens in an Embezet shutter. On this 1929 model the Bessa label can only be found on the leather handle. The Voigtlander Bessa line of cameras are confusing in all years produced. This one is number A366835

Voigtländer: Bessamatic camera  Voigtländer: Bessamatic1959-1962  201939.00The Bessamatic was a 35mm SLR camera made by Voigtländer from 1959 to 1962, featuring a selenium meter. It uses a leaf shutter rather than the more common (in SLR cameras) focal plane shutter. This is a Synchro-Compur shutter mounted behind the lens, which is interchangeable. The shutter speeds go from "B" to 1/500. The most common lenses found on the Bessamatic are the Color-Lanthar, Color-Skopar, and Color-Skopar X all of which are 50mm focal length f/2.8 although the 50mm f/2 Septon is also fitted to these cameras, and is highly prized. The 35mm Skoparex is unusual, but not hard to find. The 135mm f/4 Super-Dynarex is relatively common, although the 200mm and 350mm Super-Dynarex lenses are relatively rare and expensive. The Bessamatic was the first SLR to be fitted with a zoom lens, the Zoomar. This is a highly sought after collectible and is quite expensive. The camera has an auxiliary flash socket, accessary shoe, single action frame advance, ASA settings from 6 to 1600, focus fron 3 feet to infinity, TTL viewfinder, frame counter, rewind slid switch unde the film advance lever, a rewind knob above the ASA setting knob, right index finger shutter release with a threaded plunger socket on the top of the camera, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The Bessamatic has a reputation as a tricky camera to repair, although if looked after they are a reliable. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $200 to $250 in 2019 with a Septon 2/50 lens.

Voigtländer: Brillant Bakelite camera  Voigtländer: Brillant Bakelite1949 201910.00The first Voigtländer Brillant was released in 1932. This early model resembles a TLR but it is functionally closer to a box camera, since it cannot be focused in the viewfinder. It uses 'zone-focusing' for which one has to estimate the distance to the subject. To assist this estimate, three situations are marked around the taking lens: Porträt, Gruppe and Landschaft (i. e. Portrait, Group and Landscape). While TLRs of the same period have a rather dim ground-glass viewfinder, the Brillant has a so-called brilliant finder made of plain glass. The 1932 version has a metal body. From 1937 onwards, the Brillant were made of Bakelite, and introduced an accessory compartment for an optical light meter and lens filters. The next major step took place in 1938, with the introduction of the Focusing Brillant. A small opaque spot is added in the brilliant finder to focus on. The viewing and taking lens are coupled outside the body through gears. After the introduction of this focusing model, the zone-focusing models continued to be produced. The Brillant has a large range of pseudo-TLR cameras, (box-reflex), and later true TLR cameras. There is many lens and shutter combinations but two body types with some variations. The metal body cameras (1932-37) serial number begins with a letter (D-1932 to J-1937) but some metal body cameras from the transition times between metal and Bakelite models have no serial no. The Bakelite body cameras (1937-51) had no serial numbers and are known as the Brillant V6. The Brillant S (1938), or Focusing Brillant, is the only one with a finder lens coupled with the taking lens. After the introduction of this focusing model, the zone-focusing models continued to be produced. The Soviet camera factories GOMZ and later LOMO made Komsomolets and Lubitel cameras that were clearly based on the Voigtländer Brillant Bakelite models, especially Brillant V6. The camera pictured here is in good condition and worth $65.00 in 2019.

Voigtländer: Dynamatic I camera  Voigtländer: Dynamatic I1960-1962 201618.00The German made Voigtländer Dynamatic was produced 1960 to 1962. It is a 35mm automatic camera with a selenium 3-cell around the lens. It was offered in four models the Dynamatic, Dynamatic Delux and the Dynamatic II, and Dynamatic II Delux. The Dynamatic featured a Lathar f/2.8 50mm lens with a Prontormat S-V shutter 1/30 of a second to 1/300 of a second plus B, the Delux had the Color-Skopar f/2.8 50mm lens. It used a zone focus system. The Dynamatic had limited manual control options and was marketed as a SnapShooter camera as opposed to the more advanced controls offered in the Dynamatic II. It did have a threaded mount for a cable release, a flash socket and center mounted accessory shoe. It is capable of using ASA 10 to 400 35mm film. The camera has a frame counter that counts down but has to be set for each roll of film and exposures. The camera also has an auto exposure setting, rapid winding lever, optical viewfinder, rewind knob that pulls up for film release, film reversing lever, shutter speed window, ¼” 20 thread tripod mount, and a film type indicator in the rewind knob. One oddity was that it had no place to attach a strap but instead relied on the case for that and they only made about 27,000. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2016.
Voigtländer: Vito B camera  Voigtländer: Vito B1954 201536.00The Vito B is an attractive and compact 35mm viewfinder made by Voigtländer and produced from 1954 to 1960. It has the fine Color-Skopar 50mm f/3.5 or f/2.8 lens (a four element Tessar-type). The Vito B was equipped with either a 4-speed Pronto shutter (B, 1/25th, 1/50th, 1/100th, and 1/200th sec) or 8-speed (B, 1, 1/2, 1/5th, 1/10th, 1/25th, 1/50th, 1/100th, and 1/300th sec) Prontor SVS shutter, the 4-speed shutter being discontinued in 1957. The shutter is cocked by the film engaging a sprocket wheel, preventing double exposure, and so will not cock if there is not a film present; this has led some to mistakenly diagnose the shutter of a working Vito B as broken. The self-timer mechanism can be engaged by moving the synchronizing lever to the V (green) position; however, given the age of the camera and the weak governing spring, using this feature is discouraged, as it can cause the camera to stop working. The Vito B's body is compact and rounded, a look characterized as "cute". It has some nice features including a hinged baseplate for easy loading (which also releases the back) and a milled film counter that counts down rather than up. The Vito B body existed in two versions, the first one (1954-57) had a small viewfinder and low profile top plate. The later version (1957-60) had a larger bright-frame viewfinder; while brighter and more useful than the original Vito B's viewfinder, some enthusiasts feel that this spoiled the appearance of the camera. The camera pictured here is in good condition worth $40.00 in 2016.
Voigtländer: Vito BL camera  Voigtländer: Vito BL1956-1957 201920.00The Voigtlander Vito BL was introduced in 1956 with a natural viewfinder and last produced in 1957 with a bright-frame viewfinder. This 35mm camera is fitted with a 50mm f/2.8 Color-Skopar lens in a Prontor SVS shutter or a 50mm f/3.5 Color-Skopar lens in a Prontor SVS shutter. The camera has a die-cast alloy body covered in leather; metal parts are finished in satin chrome and black enamel. The camera also has a Single action film advance lever, apertures of 2.8 or 3.5 to 22, an un-coupled selenium light-meter, an accessory shoe, flash socket, and shutter speeds of 1 second to 1/300 of a second plus B. To fire the shutter without film you have to rotate the film sprocket inside the camera. This loads the shutter for release. The meter is either a Bewi-Automat or a Bertram (both made by Ernst & Wilhelm Bertram), and there are significant differences between the two meters.
The Bertram meter has no provision for sensitivity adjustment according to film speed. Instead the EV scale is changed via a small knob on the back of the camera top-plate, which rotates a drum. Each EV scale on the drum is assigned a letter ID, and an engraved table on the top-plate must be used to lookup the letter setting for a film speed. This table covers speeds from 6 to 200 ASA (but once again, there may have been range variations?). The table also includes DIN and WES film speeds (Weston Film Speed ratings - found on Weston exposure meters, and were sometimes referred to by film manufactures as third party speeds). There is a window in which a needle pointer deflects to indicate an EV. This needle overlaps EV zones along its length, so the correct reading is made at the red tip of the pointer. EV zones are alternating black and white bands, where black zones have numbers and white zones do not. The EV reading was manually transferred to the lens settings. The Bertram meter was fitted to later camera.
The Bewi-Automat meter had no pointer needle. There was a dial on the top-plate with an ASA or DIN film speed ring. A button on the back of the camera top-plate activated the meter, and had to be pressed for at least one second before releasing slowly. This caused aperture and shutter speed dials to rotate and align on the meter dial, and show appropriate exposure combinations, which could then be manually transferred to the lens settings.
The camera pictured here is in Poor working condition and worth $10.00 for display or parts in 2019.
Voigtländer: Vito II camera  Voigtländer: Vito II1950-1954 201525.001950-1954 Fine condition worth $40.00 in 2015
Voigtländer: Vitomatic Ia camera  Voigtländer: Vitomatic Ia1960-1963 202025.00Voigtländer developed the Vitomatic series of viewfinder and rangefinder cameras for 35mm film with coupled meter as an alternate camera series to the Vito. All the Vitomatic were derived from the Vito B, in parallel to the development of the Vito BL and BR and all have the bottom lock to open the back. The Vitomatic I are viewfinders and the Vitomatic II and III are rangefinders. The Voigtlander Vitomatic was originally released in 1957 with the Vitomatic I and is and was an exceptionally compact, well-built camera. Everything is made of metal and glass, creating a dense weight camera. Levers, knobs, and the numerous lens-mounted control rings all click precisely into their detents. The Vitomatic is a well-built quality camera. The Voigtlander Vitomatic Ia was released in 1960 and manufacturing was ceased in 1963. It is a viewfinder camera with a selenium light meter with match-needle indicators visible through a window on the top of the camera. Models designated with a letter suffix (a, b, and cs), such as the “a” here, also feature a mirrored needle display in the viewfinder window. You match the two needles by altering aperture and shutter speed until the needles align. The shutter is a Prontor SLK-V with speeds of 1 second to 1/500 of a second plus B. It is capable of accepting film with ASA 12 to 800 (DIN 12-30) and focus range for the Voigtlander Color-Skopar 50mm f2.8 lens is 3.5 feet (1m) to infinity. The ASA and or DIN settings are changed by depressing the serrated button between the shutter speed ring and the focus ring. Holding the button in you then turn the split rings against each other (The split rings are between both sets of aperture numbers) while watching the window for the ASA or DIN setting you need. Setting distance is left to the photographer’s best guess. The Ia is at the lower end of the Vitomatic’s and was not fitted with a rangefinder. Other features of the camera are a utility shoe, three flash sync settings (v, x, & M), flash plug-in socket, frame counter, large viewfinder, film rewind knob on the top, right thumb single action film advance lever, a shutter release button with a screw in socket for a plunger, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $45.00 in 2020.
Voigtländer: Vitoret camera  Voigtländer: Vitoret1962-1971 201916.00Voigtländer Vitoret is a 35mm film viewfinder camera manufactured by Voigtländer & Sohn AG, Braunschweig, of former West Germany and produced from 1962-1971. The Voigtländer Vitoret series was a very successful range of consumer level inexpensive cameras. The Vitoret series were less expensive than the Vito range because there was the choice of lenses plus shutters and a more simple internal design. The Vitoret series of cameras were produced in a quantity exceeding 700.000. Many Vitoret cameras are often still useable and capable of providing good results. The post-1967 series of the Vitoret had square edged bodies and the pre-1967 series all had the rounded body similar to the Vito range. The camera has a 1:1 bright frame finder, a Prontor 125 shutter (speeds of B, 1/30, 1/60, and 1/125 of a second), focus range marked by symbols plus feet/meter scale (depending on point of sale), Focus range of 3.5 feet (1 meter) to 60 feet (18.2 meters) plus infinity, Voigtlander Color-Lanthar 50mm f/2.8 lens, aperture settings of f/2.8 to f /22 (no click stops), a shutter release on the right front of the camera with a cable release socket on the bottom of it, frame counter in the bottom plate with auto reset, a large bright-frame viewfinder, a single through long stroke film advance plus shutter cocking lever, fold down rewind crank lever, rewind release button, flash PC socket located on the lens-shutter barrel (synch M, X, at 1/30), ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket, and an accessory cold-shoe. Focusing the Vitoret involved guessing the distance, there are markings for rapid zone focusing on the distance scale for portraits, groups, and landscapes, indicated by a spot, triangle and circle respectively. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2019.

Webster: Winpro 35 camera  Webster: Winpro 351947-1955 201610.00The Winpro 35 is claimed to be the first plastic injection-molded thirty-five millimeter camera. The cameras were introduced in 1948 and were made in either gray or black Tenite (Tenite was invented by Kodak in 1929 and is regarded as the first modern thermo-plastic) and proved to be quite rugged. The body molds were made for the Winpro by General Electric, another pioneer in synthetic materials. As a publicity stunt, Winpro cameras were dropped from tall buildings and survived intact and in working order. None of their competitors, which included Argus, Kodak and Ansco dared attempt such a feat. At $10.95, the camera proved to be very popular with buyers, and over 150,000 were sold in less than two years, a remarkable record for such a small camera manufacturing player. On the plate surrounding the lens you will find “Webster Industries Ink. Rochester, N.Y.”. The camera has three aperture stings of 8mm, 11mm, and 16mm. It also has two shutter settings of “I “(instant) and “T “(Time). The single shutter speed seems to 1/30 of a second. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $15.00 in 2016.
White: Realist 35 (A) camera  White: Realist 35 (A)1954 201715.00The David White Company made architectural tools, but as a sideline they also created a stereo camera called the Realist. That launched the stereo fad of the 1950s. But the fad crested in the early 50s and White decided to test the waters with a non-stereo camera. They already had a relationship with a Hamburg company called Wilhelm Witt, which put out the Iloca line of cameras. White imported their Iloca Rapid plus the Rapid B and named them Realist 35 (A) and (B). The difference between the models A and B is the following. The model B had a Prontor-SVS shutter with speeds of 1 second to 1/300 of a second plus B. The model B also is a true combined view rangefinder with a larger viewfinder. The model A has a Vero shutter with speeds of 1/25 of a second to 1/200 of a second with B and you had to focus with judgment. The cameras were priced accordingly with the model A costing $42.50 and the model B costing $73.50 in 1954. Both cameras used the Steinheil ƒ2.8 55mm lens. They also had a left handed single action film advance lever, synchronized flash port, frame counter, utility holder on top, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod mount on the bottom. To open the back film compartment you have to pull the film winder knob up located behind the film advance lever about ¾ inch, and then give it a little counter-clockwise twist. That twist opens the spring loaded latch on the side and the whole back will pop off and out of the other side. To put the back on you need to hold the spring loaded far side and insert that side of the back then turn the winder knob again while lightly pressing the back home to complete the install. The camera pictured here (serial number 502407) is in Good condition and worth $30.00 in 2017.

To put the back on you need to hold the spring loaded far side and insert that side of the back then turn the winder knob again to complete the install. The frame counter works off the internal film perforation wheel and needs to be manually set with a new roll of film. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2018.
White: Stereo-Realist 1041 camera  White: Stereo-Realist 10411947 201575.00Designed by Seton Rochwite and made by the David White Company, the Stereo Realist is the bestselling Stereo Camera of all time. It is a stereo camera with rangefinder focusing and takes photos in the 5p stereo format (also known as Realist format). The Stereo Realist camera was a camera that attracted celebrities throughout the 50s. The most notable user of the camera was silent film star, Harold Lloyd, who used the camera to do portraits of Marilyn Monroe and Bettie Page, among others. Advertisements of the time featured celebrities, many who were friends of Lloyd's and in his stereo camera club. Celebrities in these advertisements included Vincent Price (on the set of House of Wax), Edgar Bergen, John Wayne, James Cagney, Bob Hope, Joan Crawford, Doris Day, Cecil B. Demile, and Frank Capra. Popularity of the camera continued into the 60s and in 1971, the Realist Stereo Macro was added to the line of cameras. Today, the trademark is owned by John J. Zelenka, a stereo photographer. The start date of Production was 1947 for this 35mm viewfinder/rangefinder camera. The camera is quite wide measuring 175mm x 65mm high x 59mm deep and weighs 1.8 pounds. To give the stereo effect the Lens Separation is 69.28 mm on the David White Anastigmat (glass, matched), 1:3.5/35 mm lenses. It has Double lamellar type shutter, behind the lenses is cocked with a manual lever between the lenses. The shutter speeds are 1/150, 1/100, 1/50, 1/25, 1/10, 1/5, ½, 1 sec. and "B" and "T". The camera does have a Hot Shoe and a ¼ 20 thread per inch tripod socket. The David White Realist camera was based on the same design and was produced for many years with little or no changes. There are two basic models, the 3.5 (1041) and the 2.8 Realist (1042). Other than the lenses, they are essentially identical, except for the top shutter speed, which is marked 150 for the 3.5 and 200 for the 2.8. But even this different shutter speed is achieved with the same shutter. A good technician can adjust a 3.5 Realist to 1/200 top speed. The price of the Stereo Realist in 1947 was $160 plus $20 for the viewer and that equates to $1000.00 in today’s value. The camera pictured above is in fine condition and worth $220.00 in 2016.

Whitehouse: Beacon camera  Whitehouse: Beaconc1947-1955 202010.00Whitehouse Products was a camera manufacturer based in Brooklyn, New York, USA. It made simple Bakelite (and later other plastic) snapshot models, branded Beacon. Early Beacon models had collapsible lens chambers and collapsing to the front panel disabled the shutter. Starting c1947, they made a wonderfully styled camera named "Beacon", and several variations of it over the next 24 years, all of the same basic style. The Beacon is a very simple camera and not much more than a box camera in a smaller package. It has a two speed shutter selector with I (instant 1/50 of a second) and B (Bulb). Other features are the collapsible lens chamber, shutter lock when closed, optical eye level viewfinder, two red frame count view windows that also line up the frame, left side film advance knob, a 3/8 inch 16 thread tripod socket on the bottom, and two optically ground 46mm Whitmar coated and color corrected lenses. The camera uses 127 film for 3x4cm exposures and was produced from 1947 to 1955. Note: In 1971, Whitehouse teamed up with StarKist Tuna and produced this novelty camera in the form of StarKist's cartoon mascot, Charlie. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and is worth $5.00 for parts or display in 2020.
Whitehouse: Beacon II camera  Whitehouse: Beacon IIc1947-1955 199210.00The Beacon II Camera was manufactured from approximately 1947 to 1955 by Whitehouse Products Inc., of Brooklyn New York. Like the original Beacon camera, the Beacon II was made of Bakelite (plastic) with a built-in optical view finder. The Beacon II camera came in multiple colors including black, white, turquoise and red. It was capable of capturing sixteen color or black and white exposures on number 127 roll film. It was fitted with a two element optically ground 46mm Whitmar f/11 coated and color corrected lens and a simple instantaneous 2-blade reticular shutter providing a single speed of approximately 1/50 of a second. It featured a safety lock shutter to prevent accidental exposures when closed and two red windows to view exposure count. It was originally priced at $9.95 for the camera with an additional $4.95 for the flash unit. The original Beacon had two shutter speeds of 1/50 of a second plus B and no flash capability. Then the Beacon II was improved with the addition of synchronized flash contacts (located on the top of the pull-out lens assembly tunnel) for an optional flash unit that used class M lamps that made it resemble a light house making the name more appropriate. M-class bulbs were designed to reach peak brightness 20 milliseconds (0.020 seconds) after the bulb is fired. The M-class came in various sizes up to as large as a regular household light bulb that screwed in like a medium base light bulb. M-class were intended to be used with leaf shutters (they can be used with focal plane shutters but only at shutter speeds of 1/30 of a second or less). The shutter on the Beacon II did lock when the pull-out lens assembly was in its closed position but when opened the shutter had no double exposure protection plus unlike the original Beacon it had no bulb (B) shutter speed to time exposures. Other features are a left handed film advance knob plus a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The camera also has a #8 32 thread per inch socket near the viewfinder in the back to mount the flash attachment that is only possible when the lens assembly is in the open position with the flash contacts exposed. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $25.00 with the flash in 2014.
Whitehouse: Beacon II camera  Whitehouse: Beacon IIc1947-1955 202020.00The Beacon II Camera was manufactured from approximately 1947 to 1955 by Whitehouse Products Inc., of Brooklyn New York. Like the original Beacon camera, the Beacon II was made of Bakelite (plastic) with a built-in optical view finder. The Beacon II camera came in multiple colors including black, white, turquoise and red. It was capable of capturing sixteen color or black and white exposures on number 127 roll film. It was fitted with a two element optically ground 46mm Whitmar f/11 coated and color corrected lens and a simple instantaneous 2-blade reticular shutter providing a single speed of approximately 1/50 of a second. It featured a safety lock shutter to prevent accidental exposures when closed and two red windows to view exposure count.

Whittaker: Micro 16 camera  Whittaker: Micro 161946-1950 20180.00The Whittaker Micro 16 is a subminiature camera for 16mm film cartridges. It was sized like a smaller deck of cards and could be fit in an empty pack of cigarettes. It was made by Wm. R. Whittaker, Ltd. in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California since 1946. It had a built-in waist level reflecting type viewfinder. An optional sports finder was available. Detectives liked that camera since it could be hidden in a pocket or just your hand. The camera was produced from 1946 until 1950. The 16mm film cartridges were double perforated and had 24 exposures. The lens is an achromatic doublet f6.3 fixed focus and the camera has a single speed shutter. The Micro 16 was available in chrome (polished aluminum), black, blue, green, and grey. The green is seen in an anodized matt finish, a rough look enamel and a lacquer finish. There are also variations in having the pebble dash top and bottom being in black, green or grey with the rest of the camera as polished aluminum. The camera has a plunger film advance that when pressed all the way in, will lock in for storage and you press it in again to release it for your next session. The film cartridges are made of tin and the feed and take up cartridge are identical. The camera has three aperture settings of "BRIGHT" f11, "DULL" f8, and "COLOR" 6.3 and can be set using the switch beside the lens. The camera pictured here is in poor condition and worth $10.00 in 2018.

Yamato: Pax M3 camera  Yamato: Pax M31957 201722.00The Pax M3 is one of the 'Pax' series of compact 35 mm rangefinder cameras made by Yamato Kōki Kōgyō in 1957. As with its predecessors, the style of the camera is somewhat similar to the Leica rangefinders of the same period. The rangefinder/viewfinder superstructure of the earlier models is replaced with a profiled top plate. This is engraved 'Pax M3' together with the serial number. 'Pax' is impressed in the leatherette of the back. There is a small red 'Pax' badge on the front, near the shutter release. It has a Luminor Anastigmat 1:2.8 F=45 mm coated Tessar-type lens and a rim-set leaf shutter. The shutter speeds are 1/10 of a second to 1/300 of a second plus B and is cocked by film advance. It also has a synchronized flash PC socket and switch for F- or X-synch. Other features are a reverse-Galilean viewfinder, thumb single action lever film advance, film-type reminder dial in the hub of the lever, film rewind knob, film release button, 'Cold' accessory shoe on the top plate, cable release socket in shutter release button, rangefinder adjustment screws under screw-in cover by the viewfinder eyepiece, and a removable film compartment cover for ease of film loading. The user could purchase accessories like a hood, UV filter, telephoto lenses and wide-angle supplementary lenses plus viewfinders to go with them. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $40.00 in 2017.
Yashica: Atoron camera  Yashica: Atoron1965 202010.00Perhaps the best known Minox offshoot is the Yashica Atoron. The Japanese company Yashica first developed its own subminiature 16mm camera -- the Y16 -- and clip-load cassette. When that attempt failed to sell, they made a camera -- the 16EE -- that used the more popular Minolta cassette (9.55mm film). That also failed to sell well. They then attempted a subminiature that used the Minox cassette called the Atoron in 1965. It has a fixed-focus 18mm Yashinon f/2.8 lens (closes down to f/16), Shutter speeds of 1/45 to 1/250 of a second plus B, and a Built-in selenium meter (The meter provides a match-needle). It also has a programmed-type of exposure system which sets the f-stop and shutter speed in tandem (you dial in the film speed/Then you point the camera at the subject/then you match the meter needle with a follower needle by turning a dial) this makes the exposure settings from 1/45 of a second at f/2.8 to 1/250 of a second at f16. There are no manual settings for the aperture or the shutter speed, but the dial is marked in EV units. You can use a hand-held meter which reads out in EV (older ones do), or simply remember that EV 12 is approximately the same as sunny-16. The meter face is marked with a "sunny day" symbol at EV12 (some models) on the Built-in sliding yellow UV filter used primarily for B&W film. Other slip-on filters (80A and ND4) were available that covered the lens and the meter. Other accessories, such as a case and an AG-1 bulb flash unit were available that attached to the left side screw-in socket (3/8 inch 32 threads per inch) flash contact that used one Ever ready B154 (Maxell W10) 15v battery. The shutter lock ring surrounds the shutter release button and has two positions. The Atoron came in two body styles; one was smooth, the other had a waffled surface. The camera used a film-advance pull tab that also loaded the shutter and advanced the frame in a single pull. While the Atoron lens had a variable aperture (which Minox models lacked), the Atoron lacked a focusing lens (which the Minox had). The Atoron depended on depth-of-field to get everything in focus. It can use and has settings for ASA 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400 film. The camera was also known as the "Revue Mini-star" from 1968 to 1970 and was sold by Foto-Quelle Company of Nuremberg, Germany. Much of this information above was acquired from Subclub.org. The camera pictured here is in poor operating condition but esthetically sound and worth $15.00 for parts or repair in 2020.

Yashica: Lynx 1000 camera  Yashica: Lynx 10001960 20167.00The Lynx 1000 belongs to the Yashica Lynx series of cameras which are fixed lens, leaf shutter cameras made in the 1960s. There are three versions: one with lens 45mm f/2.8 and shutter 1/500, one with lens 45mm f/1.8 and shutter 1/1000 and another, with lens 50mm f/1.8 and shutter 1/1000. The first version is sometimes called Lynx 2.8. The Lynx 1000 was introduced in 1960. It has an f1.8 45 mm lens with 6 elements in 4 groups and is threaded at 46mm for adding a filter. The Copal-SV blade shutter is capable of a maximum speed of 1/1000 of a second, an extra stop faster than most other diaphragm shutters. Light is metered using a small selenium photovoltaic cell behind a lens array, powering a galvanometer. The film speed for the metering system can be set from 10 to 800 ASA. Focusing is manual and the camera does have an X-sync flash socket that works with all speeds plus a cold shoe. The camera also has a right thumb film advance lever, coupled viewfinder/rangefinder that is parallax corrected, fold down rewind crank, frame counter, and two hard points for attaching a strap. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $5.00 for parts in 2016.

Yashica: Minister D camera  Yashica: Minister D1963 202019.00The Yashica Minister D 35mm rangefinder camera was manufactured in Japan beginning in 1963. The main change from the Yashica Minister III was the new CdS meter cell mounted below the rewind crank. However the light meter remained uncoupled from the exposure settings on the lens barrel. The Minister 700 is a variant of the same camera but with a faster, f/1.7 lens. The light meter indicator on the D model measures light from 3 to 17 LV (Light Value). The Minister D has a Yashinon 45mm f/2.8 with a focus range 80cm-infinity, Copal-SVL leaf shutter with speeds up 1/500 of a second plus B, a self-timer delay, eye-level rangefinder with parallax correction viewfinder, a cold shoe with PC socket, X and M sync modes, manual plus quasi-shutter-priority exposure modes, a single action manual lever film advance with double-exposure prevention, and a ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket. The light meter works off an internally housed Mallory PX-13 or 625 button cell battery. The lens barrel has an LVS (Light Value Setting) ring to set the exposure level. The ring has LV numbers from 2 to 17. Turning the LVS ring alone adjusts the aperture ring automatically to maintain the same exposure level, giving this camera a kind of shutter-priority mode. Reaching the minimum or maximum aperture will then automatically turn the shutter ring too. Much of the information gleaned from camera-wiki.org. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $2.00 for parts in 2020.

Yashica: Yashica EZ Matic camera  Yashica: Yashica EZ Matic1966 201610.00The 1966 Yashica EZ-matic is a stylish camera for 126 film. It has two automatic exposure modes: aperture priority or a fully automatic exposure. The rounded lines on the body give it a classy look, and this is enhanced by the Selenium cell around the lens. The transport lever was moved to the lower back side of the camera, probably to simplify the look. With automatic exposure and an almost focus free wide-angle lens, this is practically a point-and-shoot camera. The Yashica EZ-matic features an accessory shoe and may be the only 126 film camera with a self-timer. It has a 37mm/2.7 Yashinon lens. Yashinon lenses are said to be of Tessar design and enjoy a good reputation. It can be stopped down to f/16. The selenium cell exposure meter is placed within the limits of the filter thread, so that placing a filter does not necessitate an exposure correction; light is metered through the filter. The viewfinder shows image frame lines and a shutter-speed scale. There is however, no way to directly choose a shutter-speed. Leave that to one of the exposure programs. The camera pictured here is in Poor working condition due to the shutter. It fires but does not open. The camera is in pristine esthetic condition and worth $10.00 in 2016.

Yashica: Yashica FX-2 camera  Yashica: Yashica FX-21976 20235.00The Yashica FX-2 is a 35mm SLR camera manufactured by Yashica in 1976. The FX-2 was the second camera to use the new bayonet lens mount known alternately as the Contax/Yashica mount or C/Y mount. The FX-2 viewfinder provide 0.89x magnification, providing a nearly 90% field of view. The metering is done via a needle on the right side of the viewfinder display. Choosing the proper shutter and aperture combinations will result in proper exposure with the needle aligned between the + and −. The focus is done manually on the lens, to make it easier the view finder screen features a central spot with a micro-prism screen. This TTL camera can use 12 to 1600 ASA film and has shutter speeds of 1 second to 1/1000 of a second plus B. The flash X-sync is 1/60 of a second or slower. The camera used a 1.3 volt mercury battery that is no longer available but replacements can be obtained on today’s market. Most of this information was obtained on camera-wiki.org. The camera pictured here is in Poor condition and is worth $5.00 for parts in 2023.
Yashica: Yashica J-5 camera  Yashica: Yashica J-51964 201920.00The Yashica J-5 is a 35mm SLR camera with a built-in CdS cell light meter and was introduced in 1964. The camera was a little like the Minolta SR-7 of 1962 but of course, it differed in some details, especially the lens mount. Both cameras had a battery powered meter coupled to the shutter speed setting, with CdS photoresistor which looked through a separate bull's eye and didn't measure thru the lens yet. The J-5 camera has a focal plane shutter that supports speeds from 1/2 second to 1/1000 of second plus Bulb. It has an M42 screw lens mount, self-timer, single action film advance lever, fold down rewind crank, optical viewfinder, light meter off switch with high light plus low light setting, can use ASA film from 12 to 800, and has neck strap attach points on either side of the camera. On the front of the camera at the right of the lens mount are two flash synchro terminals (FP and X) and on the bottom is the battery compartment for the 625A battery for the light meter. Original list price in 1964 with a Yashinon f/1.8 lens was $175 and with a DX f/1.4 lens was $225. The camera pictured here is in good condition but has a problem returning the shutter the last 1/8 inch (3.175mm) at speeds lower than 1/60 of a second. For this reason this camera is worth $20.00 with the Yashinon f/1.8 55mm lens in 2019.

Yashica: Yashica MF-2 camera  Yashica: Yashica MF-21979-1987 20179.00The MF-2 is a 35mm viewfinder camera was introduced by Yashica in 1980. It is a highly-simplified version of the MF-1, itself the successor to the 35 MF. It has a fixed-focus 38mm f/4 lens. Whereas the MF-1 has programmed auto-exposure, using the CdS meter cell on the front of the lens to vary both shutter speed and aperture program automatically, on the MF-2, the meter cell serves only to warn of under-exposure, by a red LED in the viewfinder. The camera has a fixed shutter speed of around 1/125 second (reduced when the flash is used). The film speed control can be set to ISO 100 or 400, and this sets one of two fixed apertures. The camera uses 2 AA batteries to power the pop-up flash and the meter cell. The camera also has a rewind release button, rewind fold down crank handle, single right thumb action frame advance, frame counter, flash ready light by the viewfinder, and a ¼” 20 thread per inch tripod socket. The camera pictured here is in Fine condition and worth $25.00 in 2017.
Yashica: Yashica MG-1 camera  Yashica: Yashica MG-11975  201623.00The MG-1 was released in 1975 and discontinued in 1980. It has an electronic controlled leaf-type shutter providing continuous variable speeds from 1/500 of a second to 2 seconds approximately. It also has built-in self-timer, direct X contact shoe (shutter speed automatically sets at 1/30 sec. when the Auto Lever is adjusted to 'flash'), and a 45mm f/2.8 Yashinon lens composed of four elements in three groups.This is one of the last metal cameras before the "Plastic Age". The Yashica MG-1 is a full size rangefinder. The automatic functions is a feature which makes it easy to use. The almost total lack of manual control is no doubt a limitation. It is achieved with a higher cost. The ASA range is from 25 to 800 and the camera has a one action 180 degree film advance thumb lever. The viewfinder uses red and yellow exposure indicator arrows visible through the eye piece. Using the viewfinder/rangefinder focus is secured by rotating the focusing ring and superimposing two images in the focusing spot at the center of the viewfinder field. The focus range is from 1 meter (3.3ft) to infinity. The power was provided by a 5.6V mercury battery (Eveready E164 Mallory PX32 or equivalent) but now can use a 6V Alkaline A32, A164, or A32PX single battery. The Yashica MG-1 was the last in the respected Electro 35 series, which began in 1966. It’s the only camera in the series that doesn’t have “Electro 35” stamped somewhere on the top plate. The camera pictured here is in fine condition worth $40.00 in 2016.

Yashica: Yashica-Mat EM camera  Yashica: Yashica-Mat EM1964 201828.00Released in 1964, the Yashica-Mat EM features an uncoupled light meter and a Yashinon shooting lens. The "EM" stands for Exposure Meter, referring to the uncoupled selenium cell exposure meter in front of the viewfinder. It's an all-mechanical camera with no batteries needed. It has a Copal MXV leaf shutter, capable of speeds ranging from B and 1 second to 1/500 of a second and offers flash sync at all speeds. It also has an 80 mm four-element 3.5 Yashinon lens said to be of the Tessar design and can be stopped down to F/22. The viewing lens is a 3.2 80mm Yashinon. Shutter speeds and diaphragm are set by two wheels on the front plate, the values set are shown in a window above the viewing lens. Focusing is done by a focusing wheel on the left of the camera. It has a distance scale surrounded by a depth of field scale engraved in the body. There is a small window in which you can set the ASA and DIN value of the film you use. ASA (ISO) 400 is the highest value. The body is metal, covered by black leatherette and it is quite a heavy camera, about 1.2 Kg (2.6 lb.). A film advance crank handle on the right side of the camera also loads the shutter. Other features are the ground glass waist-level finder with a Fresnel screen with red grid lines (5×5) to help composition, a viewing hood with a magnifying loupe, and the back plate of the waist finder could be flipped open to expose the sports finder for additional composition possibilities. The camera in pictured here is in Poor condition and worth $25.00 for parts or display in 2018.

Zeiss Ikon: Contaflex II 862/24 camera  Zeiss Ikon: Contaflex II 862/241954-1958 201948.00The Contaflex II was introduced by Zeiss Ikon AG, Stuttgart, Germany in 1954 and discontinued in 1957. It was the same camera as the Contaflex I with an uncoupled needle readout selenium meter added to one side of the front plate. The Contaflex I and II have fixed Zeiss Tessar 45mm f2.8 with front-cell focusing lenses and a Synchro-Compur shutter with 1-2-4-8-15-30-60-125-250-500 plus B shutter speeds. It is possible to add a 1.7x supplementary lens (called the Teleskop 1.7x) using an adapter mount (861/07). The adapter mount slides on to the camera body below the lens and locks into place using a pair of hinged lugs. The Teleskop 1.7x lens screws on to the adapter mount and also locks into place. The lens-to-subject focus distance remains almost the same as the use of the Teleskop 1.7x and effectively increases subject magnification. Note that the adapter mount cannot be attached if a filter is fitted to the fixed lens. The camera uses 35mm film and is a viewfinder SLR, geared mirror camera with apertures of 2.8 to 22. The filter size is 27mm and the lens uses threaded only. The camera also has a PC sync connection, rewind knob on the top plus release button on the bottom, focus range from 3 foot to infinity, frame counter, ¼ inch 20 thread tripod socket, and it weighs 25.4oz (720.1g). To access the film compartment you remove the one piece bottom and back. Provided are two-fold downturn levers that work in opposing directions. You now can pull the back assembly down from the top of the camera exposing the film compartment. The camera pictured here is in poor working condition but Fine esthetic condition. The camera is worth $20.00 for parts or display in 2019.

Zeiss Ikon: Contina Ia (526/24) camera  Zeiss Ikon: Contina Ia (526/24)1954-1958 201716.00This solid and well-made camera was manufactured from 1954-1958. It is fitted with a Novar-Anastigmat 45mm f/3.5 lens in a Prontor SVS shutter. It’s a three element design, hardly the most sophisticated, which reflects the position of this camera at the low end of the Zeiss range. The Contina Ia is a rigid-bodied 35mm viewfinder camera, and the simplest of the Contina range, which were all popular cameras. It was the successor to the earlier Contina I, a folding camera, itself previously named the Ikonta 35. Even though the Contina Ia lacks a built-in rangefinder, as do all the rigid-bodied Contina’s, it is certainly capable of rewarding careful use by returning good results. The shutter speeds range from 1 second to 1/300 of a second. The Contina has a female thread for a manual cable release, in the middle of the shutter release, which is almost hidden in the middle of the film counter. Focusing is achieved by turning the front cell of the lens, on which are printed distance markings and just above them, is a depth-of-field scale. The camera also has a flash PC-socket in front, accessory mount on the top, optical viewfinder, film release rewind button on the bottom, single action right thumb frame advance lever, and a ¼” 20 thread tripod mount. The camera pictured here is in fine condition and worth $30.00 in 2017.

Zeiss Ikon: Ikonta 35 (522/24) camera  Zeiss Ikon: Ikonta 35 (522/24)1947-1953 201930.00The 522/24 lens is an f3.5/45mm Novar, f2.8/45mm Xenar, or an f2.8/45mm Tessar. As Zeiss was unable to produce sufficient Tessar lenses (due to war damage to their production facilities), this is one of the few Zeiss models ever to feature a non-Zeiss (Schneider Xenar) lens. The shutter is a Synchro-Compur with 1/500 top speed. The Ikonta 35 examples most frequently found have the three-element Novar, while a few are equipped with the Xenar which is very similar to the Tessar. Later models of the camera were called the Contina I, but it is the same in every respect but the name. The Ikonta 35 and the Contina were produced in the Zeiss Ikon plant in Stuttgart from 1947 to 1953 for the Ikonta and 1951 to 1955 for the Contina I. A great many of them were sold in Armed Forces PXs and came home with returning GIs. The Ikonta 35 was designed by Hubert Nerwin, who was also the principal designer of the Contax II. A very nice summary of his design work is available at the Zeiss Historica site. Parts of This article was gleaned from Mike Eckman’s site mikeeckman.com and content for the article produced by Mike Connealy. The camera pictured here is in Good condition and worth $40.00 in 2019.

I'm sorry I did not see this. The comment you left was at the end of my collection. Unless I responded to this already and I'm losing it. If that's the case, delete this and I'll have myself checked. To answer, this now very old question, There is too many to display. I do have some on display but most are stored hopefully for a future enthusiast. I have about 80 cameras not entered here on collectiblend.com. I also don't have the 65 video film cameras and so many lenses entered here. I love the fact that I can see my collection on this site any time I like. I think still cameras are my passion and what this venue best exhibits. Eugene has made a simply great site here for people like us.
