It is time to get serious about developing film in Cafenol (Coffee based developer) so I have loaded a roll of 35mm mono into this sweet Chinon CM-4 from 1980. Might be a week or 3 for me to get the right subjects as I don't get out much, could include some stars.

I went looking for my camera in the series "Fallout" and about 2:13 of the first scene is your Flash 20.

The brick wall was worth a pixel peep ... impressive in real terms. Even with limitation I have made a lot of good shots on 110 but having lost all of my past many times I am sorry I couldn't show you. In my pocket the 110 could be with me on top of a truck while 3 machines unloaded wheat.

system as with my Yashika TLR and the Rollei and others of the time, magnificent cameras.
The Kodak Twin 20 is nowhere near the picture quality of a Twin Lens Reflex like my YashicaFlex but is an EXCELLENT teaching camera for simple aperture and focusing.

This lovely item arrived today, a Kodak Twin 20, an update on the Box Brownie in that is has 3 aperture levels to control the light (Pic 2) and a proper glass lens with 3 focus points (pic 3). Harks from 1960 and uses 620 roll film (620 unobtainable, snipped reel 120 to fit).

Nah almost all new cameras are mirrorless and are much narrower and lighter because they don't need a whopping great mirror to send an optical image to the viewfinder, just lens and sensor is all that is needed in the camera body plus electronics of course, simpler.

Sneaky. Still, a full frame pre 1930s bellows camera wasn't a real stealth choice.

This camera continues to surprise me ... this time the details on a daylight exposed Moon are quite exceptional for a small sensor camera.
