Identify the Mystery Object.

No, not me. That's 120.

 

[RichardC]

Joking - I will graciously accept the win and post a new challenge in the morning.

 

[WaltP]

Think of it as 120 plus taxes. I've stuck 130 spools in 127 camera before. The spools are "close enough for government work".

Apologies to anyone who has lost a loved one to shoddy government workmanship. I know your pain.

Don't leave us hanging on which camera that was!

Super Ikonta of some sort?

 

[WaltP]

Thats a 6x6 Nettar. Still usable. Shutter is still close enough to be controllable, no oil on blades.

Simple box for controlling light onto film. I used to have a 20x30" landscape from it over my mantle.

Basically, yeah. But I used to have a 521 Ikonta 645 that was gorgeous. Well, this Nettar 6x6 is really sweet for a pocket camera too.

ARGH. I thought I recognized that, but when I went to my camera cabinet to double-check I chose the wrong folder. The right one was just next to it. sigh.

I hope you still shoot yours on occasion too. Hard to justify film costs these days, but special occasions.....

Great for seminars or mentoring sessions. Pull it out and you can easily talk about how to make an image. About what is important, etc. 4 shutter speeds was enough for the first 100+ years of photography. And an f/6.3 standard kit lens!

It was a couple years ago at Green Bank, where you have to shoot film. I hope to revisit next month.

You mean I'm not really alone? Oh joy!

Or...

Yeah, and mom always liked you best.

Got rather bogged down today.

Correct!

It's a really BAD picture.

But it's not a ceiling fan.

 

[WaltP]

Well, it MIGHT be a warp engine condensor and cooling fins.

 

[Jeffcs]

Inside of a washer or dryer

No. Not one of those.
