Description

The listing, Vintage 1947 Kodak Flash Bantam Camera has ended.

From 1947

Vintage Kodak Flash Bantam Camera

Kodak Anastar f:4.5 48mm Lens

Comes in original fitted leather case. One of the strap hinges is torn.

The view finder pops up, and lens expands out.

Quite good vintage condition! I can see no damage, the inside is very clean, and the lenses look clear. The bellows looks good. The shutter works.

It says it uses 828 film.

4 5/8" X 2 1/2"

I had well over 300 cameras, all collected over a lifetime. When I retired and bought a much smaller place, I simply had no room any longer. So.....out the door they went. I've been selling them off over the past several months, and now there are only a few left. The exception is my Polaroid collection...which is quite extensive in itself...and I'll never get rid of that. They'll be buried with me. So....after all this dribble...the answer to your question is...no, I don't.. I certainly did....but no more.

thanks for the info. I'm a freelance photographer mostly blacknwhite. Do some colorization to the black and whites. I like to take pictures of subjects that don't know they are being photographed, a lot more real that way. I was bidding on the lightmeter but I want this camera more so I will have to let the other go.

Sounds fine to me. I was a commercial photog for 21 years. I don't like taking pictures of people. I think your method is terrific, because candid shots are always 10 times better than posed. Keep it up!

very nice

Aug 10th, 2010 at 2:23:47 PM PDT by

Yes, it really is!

I like your spunk, thanks for the advice. I also love taking photos of buildings at odd angles. Commercial wow, that's sooooooooooooooo neat. I just do it for a hobby nos though. Use to do weddings, too many Bridezillas tooooooo bossy. Hey have a great day!!!

Aug 11th, 2010 at 6:53:26 AM PDT by

Yeah....I shot a wedding once. ONCE! That's all it took. NEVER again! Heh Heh!
