Taken with Moskva-5, APX 400 film in 120 format, Developed in Ilfosol-3

Excellent image quality, I'm quite happy with the huge 6x9 negatives!

No luck with original bellows on Agfa Isolettes, used Sandeha Lynch's replacements and then played "mix 'n match" with lenses 🙂

M is for Mamiya-Six



And yes, the ever-ready case is in almost as good condition as the camera.

My Ensign 220 Auto-Range. Coupled rangefinder takes 120 (not 220) film for 6x6 or 6x4.5 frames.

I picked this up last night, a Certo Dolly Super Sport from 1937:
Certo Dolly Super Sport by John Rodriguez, on Flickr
It has no flash sync or coating because of its age, but it has a coupled rangefinder, unit-focus Tessar 75mm/f2.8, facilities for 645 or 6x6 or even plates, and a top shutter speed of 1/400. It also has a film in it so will see if it yields anything.

I am really after a folder with a combined RF and VF (and X-sync) such as a Mamiya 6 or Super Ikonta, but just figuring it all out. I also have a Mess Ikonta but the uncoupled RF and the separate VF (which has a very different view to the RF window so not much use for composition) mean it's slow to use so I miss shots.

Re. the comments above about Novar triplets, my Ikonta has this (75mm f3.5) and it's pretty sharp, with reasonable to good corners, even in colour, and seems to tolerate wide apertures pretty well. I'm sure the Tessar is a better lens but not by such a long way as you might think.

Agfa Automatic 66

Agfa Automatic 66

This is an Agfa Automatic 66. Built in 1956, it's the first aperture priority camera ever made. The crazy thing is, it uses a selenium meter (no battery) that controls the shutter speeds automatically via pneumatic tubes that run down from the meter to the shutter. This camera is still fully functional and the selenium meter is still very very sensitive. It's only issue is the unit focus helical is a bit too stiff and needs cleaning and re-lubing.

Unfortunately, this isn't my camera. :bang: I've just been inspecting it for the owner. Quite a rare privilege. 🙂

Saw this on ebay (identified as "Zeiss Ikon 35mm camera"!), knew what it really was and decided it might make an interesting cleaning experience.
As you can see, it cleaned up nicely. All but one leather panel is now in good condition, bellows appears intact, shutter works at all speeds, rangefinder is dim but accurate, and lens has only a slight age-coating on front. Will try film next.
Super Ikonta A (530, type two). 2 1/4 X 1 3/4 on 120 film.
Cheers, WES

Ercona II, the slow speeds are not reliable and the 6x6 mask is missing.

Super Ikonta IV, picked it up on Saturday, complete with case and hood. All there and working, but shutter is too sticky and the rings are too stiff so needs some cleaning.
