Really a very good camera for the price. It has lots of adjustments on the lens, and takes very nice photos. Maybe not very desirable from a collector standpoint but because you can buy 620 roll film at Blue Moon camera in Portland Oregon, an excellent camera to walk around with

Just leaving some information about the camera:
The Tourist II was introduced in May of 1951 and featured a redesigned top cover plus a new viewfinder, which contains frame lines for the optional 828 roll film adapter that was available at the time. After a seven year run production was discontinued in July of 1958. The Tourists II used 620 film making eight 2¼×3¼ exposures or with the adapter used 828 roll film for eight 28×40mm exposures. 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, eye-level viewfinders, and 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.
