Okay, I figure its about time for me to start commenting on these :). Thus far, I'd say this is my favorite of the series. The little intricate details draw me in and set it apart from the rest. Although it is a little crooked which is bothering me a little, you really almost got it dead on. The white light makes it look very proffesional, and I really like the reflection of the camera on the part thats folded down. The inside part by the shutter is what interests me the most, I'm looking forward to a seeing those details a bit closer up ;) I'm so very very jealous of your dad's collection, I've never seen cameras this old in person. Lucky you!

yea, the little tilt bothered me at first too... I tried correcting it the best I could in post, but couldn't get it perfect since I think it's the angle thats off just a bit. it's really an awesome camera... it was my favorite of the bunch, thats why I saved it for last :)

It looks like a toy train in real life... it looks like a toy train in the picture lol. I am really amusing myself, I can compare all these cameras with something, and I am starting to freak myself out lol.

No, but really, I love all the mechanism seen in the shot, there is so much going on in there, love all the tones, the dark agaisnt the soft. I wish the panel wasn't as blury, but it really doesn't take much off the picture.

Muy bonito baby I like! :hug:

Very nice and detailed.... interesting composition but personally I somehow don't like it. I have to look longer I guess ^^.
