    All looks to be in good working order, I've not run a film through it but there's not much to go wrong. Shutter speed looks about right (fixed at 1/35) and shutter opens when you fire it.

  • Legend has it that this was the camera on which Lomo based the Holga

  • You twiddle the lens element out to zone focus (scale in front of lens) and that's basically it...

    As you can see from the pic there's a bit of a ding on the bezel

  • It takes 6*6 images on 120 film. (But can run 35mm if you have a 3d printed adaptor)
    Vintage: mid 50s
    The cloudy setting is f11, sunny is f16 and auto cocked shutter.

    Advance knob is a bit scratched but inside it's all pretty neat & tidy

  • It all looks like terrific fun.... I already have a collapsible camera (Dacora Digna) but I chopped it up and hacked it onto an Eos so I thought I ought to give this a fair chance to be loved and cherished rather than brutally hacked

  • This is the sort of crap you can create with the dead puppy above...
