Cameras

Canon EX Auto [1972]

By Peter on May 31, 2017 0

Have you ever picked up a camera which seemed so familiar, so “right”, that it just felt great in your hands?  That’s what the EX Auto feels like to me – with that early 1970s twist. When researching the history of Canon cameras, an interesting little evolutionary dead end occurred in the late 60s and […]

Canon T60 [1990]

By Peter on May 30, 2017 0

Let’s just get this one out of the way… I don’t see myself ever using this camera. Officially this is the last Canon branded manual camera based on the FD lens mount, although it came out 3 years after the incompatible EF lens mount still used today.  This camera seems to exist only to allow a low […]

Canon A1 (black, databack) [1978]

By Peter on May 29, 2017 0

This came from a local sale.  The owner wanted to offload a bunch of 4 or 5 older cameras, all original purchases from his family.  It was a simple “lets meet and haggle” type arrangement.  His post didn’t even list this camera, and had a slightly blurry photo which included a nice Argus Astigamatic and […]

Canon TX [1975]

By Peter on May 28, 2017 0

I have two copies of this camera, both came from local sellers.  The lower serial number version came from a guy who claims he was the original owner.  I think I paid $20 for it, including the gorgeous Canon FL 58mm f/1.2 lens, which at the time of this writing is the fastest lens I […]

Kodak Empire State No 2 [1908]

By Peter on May 19, 2017 2

The Kodak Empire State No. 2 is an example of an early Kodak field view camera.  Kodak bought the Empire State Camera company in 1903, and maintained the camera names for a few years before rebranding.  This particular model seems to have all original parts, and a Kodak branded lens. Overall condition is pretty decent, […]

Kodak Duaflex II [1950]

By Peter on May 14, 2017 0

Yet another Kodak bakelite camera! It has a quite nice feel for a consumer (ie cheap) camera of its time.  About the only thing I don’t care for at all is the strap which cannot be removed.  This seems to be a common thing done of this vintage; I’ve run into other cameras with the […]
