This is the camera. Have I paid too much?
I picked up this 1960 Kodak Brownie on ebay for 50p plus £3 postage. It needed a good clean but was in perfect working order. I got some Efke R100 film from retrophotographic and took the camera with me to Cornwall and North Wales for some holiday snapshots to see how it performed.The plastic lens is a Dakon f11 slightly on the wide side with a rotary shutter at 1/50th. The camera is easy to use with a bright clear viewfinder. I was pleased with the results - they all came out!
I'll put it back on ebay and use the proceeds to buy something else.
