My wife might agree with you These are just the ones on display. There's who knows how many in boxes, I need to work on. I grew with film, so I love them, even though I don't use them much anymore.

Thanks for the welcome. I kinda like it here.

Since you have many in boxes not yet on display I will take a dozen from you, not half a dozen! (To help your wife out!) LOL LOL LOL!!

You are very welcome on "The Welcome"!!

Dear Board, it's not an old camera but it is a nice old lens. I'm pleased with how it performs on my old 7D and 1Dmk3. Regards, Tim Murphy

Konica EU mini
The Konica EU-Mini is a small and attractive compact point-n-shoot camera. It has a wide angle lens of 28mm and probably a fixed aperture of f8 (?) Film speed is recognised automaticaly (100-400 ASA), so perhaps there are 2 or 3 shutter speeds (1/60-1/180s?). Film is also advanced automatically.

It seems like an easy to use camera, but after the film test I found out that many shots were blurred due to camera movement and the frame edges are very soft. So it is a camera that needs extra care when taking photos in the shadows and the quality of the lens is not great.

Samples from the Konica EU-Mini, very soft at the edges.

My latest acquisition: an original Canon Canonet - 1961 with a 45mm F/1.9 lens

Well done Henk!

These are my two "Baby" Rolleiflex cameras. They both use 127 film... The one on the left is from 1932 and is from the very first version they made; there were several small variations among them prior to WWII. This particular one must've been VERY heavily used as the camera's leatherette covering shows lots of wear and shiny spots everywhere one's fingers would rub, such as while turning the focus knob, etc.

Production stopped when the war started and didn't re-start until 1957, which the camera on the right is an example of. The new models featured an interesting gray color scheme, and helped start a brief resurgence in 127 "super slide" shooting. A color transparency on 127 film fits a regular 35mm-sized slide mount! But by the early 60s the resurgence was over and the little Rolleis were discontinued.

Noblex Pro 6/150 F

Nice...
