Francisco- The photomic head does look a little screwy. The black looks ok in a chunky kind of way.

There was a thread on an unknown camera that was identified as a Russian Comet. For curiosity, I looked on ebay and discovered one of the uglier cameras I have seen for a while. I had never seen this before. That is just plain ugly!

Fotron, anyone? 🙂
(Does anyone here even admit to being suckered into buying one?) 🙂

I've been looking for a nice Fotron. My better half wants me to hollow it out and make her a purse.

Found this beauty in the attic, I reckon it must be early 1970s. It is a G.E.C radio with a camera built into the right hand side. Unfortunately it is all seized up with crud.

No such thing as an ugly camera. Ugly women, ugly kids, yes but, no ugly cameras.

I almost bought one of these on Ebay just because it was the ugliest thing I had ever seen. You're going to have a tough time beating this.

Behold... the Chinon Genesis!

This is truly the "manatee" of cameras !

That is ugly...kinda reminds of of those Hairless cats...😱

Someone will claim to loooove it, but then someone must have loved Quasimodo!!!

I like the fine rf mounted on top and the bolts firmly holding the front plate. I fine camera.

Judging by the location of the Viewfinder, I am guessing there would be more than just a passing acquaintance with Parallax-error... 😉

Haha okay I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought of the M5 when I read the thread title.

I think the Omega 120 looks kinda cool ! Almost like something home-made.
