Post your vintage photos

Thought I should start a thread for photos taken with our vintage cameras. Here are a few from the Kodak Brownie No. 2A model c first introduced to market in 1924. It was designed to take the long discontinued 116 film but is still useable now with adapters for 120 film. - Jack

1925 - contact print




1968 - commercial d&p



2021 - home developed and scanned

Very cool idea!
Love those , especially the 1925 with the car. Beautiful!

Here are some of mine. All of these images were taken "recently" (last decade or so) as I acquired these cameras.












My oldest camera tested to date, soon to be challenged.

Can't leave out the favorite: Tower 23 (Asahiflex IIb Model 1) 1954


A few more recent classics

Revue ML/Praktica MTL5B - Rexatar 200mm m42 lens


Miranda Autosensorex EE (late 60's - early 70's)


Olympus OM-1 (70's)


Minolta X570


Minolta XG1


Thanks,
Ismael

No. 1 Pocket Kodak Junior, Ilford Delta 100 (taken in 2013). And by "Pocket" they meant an overcoat pocket!

Early snow, November 2018.


Voigtländer Bessa I (6x9) with Color-Skopar 105mm at f/4.7, Fomapan 100 film/ID-11 1+3 developer (13 min., EI 50). Negative copied using Pentax K-1 with VST VS-L12056-05/V 120mm f/5.6 0.5x lens. This was frame no. 4 from the first roll of film out of my Bessa I, which was also my first self-developed film in almost 25 years.

I have been trying Cinestill Cs41 for developing colour film, a 2-bath kit. It seems to do the job. This is Portra 400 from the Brownie No. 2A, model c. I will be trying contrastier film soon to see how it goes. - Jack

I have a second version taken with an orange filter (linked on the flickr page) but I prefer the unfiltered version.

Finally got a roll of Ektar 100 through the Brownie 2A, model C. The old meniscus lens still has something to give with the latest fine grain emulsions. Developed in Cinestill CS41. - Jack
