Camera Talk

Nice series of abstracts, and your style comes through in anything you shoot!

I feel I have asked this before, but I rememeber there was photographic paper made in Uruguay It had its own brand which I cant recall, do you remember it? @Titrisol, yes, and now I remember that the brand was “Talbot”. I remember using their paper for contact prints in 120 rolls, from box cameras,...

Get well soon!

Nice story about those cameras. Indeed simple cameras with a good viewfinder, such as the Brownie Reflex, are a joy to use.

What a lineup! Waiting for the stories, and enjoy the weekend while you cool down!

Once, years ago, my tech told me that he used a custom adaptation of a pipe wrench for Agfa grease, i.e. just brute force (or better said, brute torque).

A great little camera. That Retina II model was my first serious camera, and IMHO one of the best in the long Retina series. The Xenon lens is outstanding.

Your camera seems to have been neglected but not mistreated. A good cleaning should restore it to top performance.

Very nice series! Your camera seems in the same class of a Super-Isolette or Super Ikonta. Indeed, an excellent catch.

And a photo from the first test roll.

More than good enough! This is not any old lens. But the India hint has got me more confused than before!

Japanese model?

From somewhere in the Internet:

Late versions of the Mine Six have framelines, the Pearl IV has framelines; the Super Pontura (I think it's called) even has parallax-adjusted framelines if I remember right

Never heard of these, but there…

Good omen, Scott!
