Camera Porn Friday

This camera was sitting at the top of a pile of other cameras for a couple of years. I was planning to get rid of it, but after I restored it, it was too pretty to dump. Plus, it has that sweet Xenon lens. Notice how the model name wore off its little plate.

I bought it with the film still in it a lot of years ago, and still the same today.

This arrived with another camera. This was the "bonus" camera, and I didn't intend to keep it.

It has a collapsible lens, and like other cameras, I intended to dump it back onto eBay. It was fairly grimy, and the lens was filthy, too. But after an hour's worth of work, it cleaned up nicely. It uses VP127 film.

It's probably the poor man's Kodak/Nagel Pupille.

I miss this setup. It was great for sports and BIF. It was superb for athletics and of course, you couldn't beat it for architecture! I really must try and lash something like this together for the Nikon D7100.
