Vintage Camera

Snowflake · 05-19-2011, 10:24 AM

Well, as if I did not have enough projects going on. I'm inspired by Matt's great b/w shots and thought it would be fun to try this out using a vintage camera. I just sprung for the 1915 era Brownie Autographing Camera Model No. 2. It was $30 with shipping.

It takes 120 film and who knows how it will work out. I'm not a great photographer with a point and shoot digital. Something appeals to me to view the world through an ancient lens and see what I can come up with.

If nothing else, the camera is pretty cool looking.

Wow that is cool looking but can you even buy film for it anymore?

I hear nudes do particularity well in that format. Be sure to post some examples.

You will have to settle for nudes of my cat Tango.

Yes, you can. It uses 120 film. I can even use color film in it, apparently.

You're not going to shave the cat for Moonie, are you?!
