Re: Dad bragging...
Did you say, "freshman year of college"? Well, those years certainly flew by, didn't they?

New feature - You can now 'like' a post
It took a while, but you can now "like" a post. Click the gray smiley face on the right side of the post: post-like2.png You can then select from one of seven Facebook-like images. It took a long time to find one of these that worked. For some reason, the developers of the forum software o...

Re: Ansco Super Regent
PB Blaster? I need to get some of that. I am a fan of Agfa cameras from the 1950s and earlier. The Super Solinette is a nice camera and seems to be identical to the Super Regent. Agfa also did this wth the Isolettes in that it produced cameras for itself and Ansco. My one gripe about many of the mid...

Re: The four folding Voigtlander Vitos
I'm glad to see that there's a lot of love for the Vito II. A buddy of mine had a Vito II, although it was missing the plastic on the door-closing tabs. The first model that I bought was the IIa. The Vito III arrived a few years later. It's an entirely different camera.

The four folding Voigtlander Vitos
vito_x4a.jpg In chronological order, from left: Voigtlander Vito, Vito II, Vito III and Vito IIa. The Vito IIa was released after the Vito III but really is a continuation of the Vito and Vito II. This video was complicated by the Vito III, which is really a folding version of the Voigtlander Promi...

The Standard Rolleiflex
standardrollei.jpg Rolleifle_Standard_sm01.jpg Rolleifle_Standard_sm02.jpg Rolleifle_Standard_sm03.jpg In this video, I talk about the Standard Rolleiflex. It was the first model to use 120 film. The earlier models used 117 film. I forgot to include the third photo in the video. What's interesting ...

Video: Reviving the folding Contessa's meter
https://youtu.be/THwd4CTMxg0 Here's where I show how to revive the meter on your folding Zeiss Ikon Contessa. I've had this camera for about eight or nine years, and I was fairly certain that it would work, and it did. Here's my old webpage on this: https://elekm.net/zeiss-ikon/repair/meter-repair/
