Camera Collection
Argus C3, "The Brick"
Tuesday, 26 February 2008

 This a Camers that i remember as a kid. My Dad let my sister and I play with it. Nicknamed "The Brick", it both looks like a brick and weighs in like one too. Nevertheless, there is something intriging about this old randge finder.

 
An Old Coronet
Tuesday, 26 February 2008

 My Mother-In-law gave me this camera. She got it when she was 16 years old. She grew up in Denmark. The year was 1935. The camera has seen better days, but the camera has survived a lot. She has had this camera for over 70 years. Through Nazi occupation, emigrating to Canada, and then coming to the United States. It is a great addition to my small collection.

 


 
Self Timer
Tuesday, 26 February 2008

 A few friends have been giving me old camera stuff. Lots of oldfilters. Every once in a while somebody gives me a cool old lightmeter. Today, my friend John gave me something I've never seen--an oldfashion "Self Timer." I have to tell you, this is a pretty cool gizmo.
