I just acquired this exact camera from my grandfather. It used to be his dad's when his dad was only around my age (21). It is in reasonable condition, the only issue being that the shutters only work for the timed exposure, not the instant (it stays open on both, not closing up again for instant). I've never used film before, and have just acquired some 127 ISO 200 color negative film for it, and plan on taking a picture of my grandfather with it before he passes, as his health has been declining as of late. I was incredibly happy to come across this video, as it very quickly went over the camera and helped solidify my understanding of all the parts, so thank you so much!
Beautiful camera! There is just something about early cameras that have such an iconic look! Thanks for sharing!
I really like these little guys. I’m sure it was an amazing time when you could put a camera into your pocket for the first time. We have it so good today!
Anyway you could share the manual with me, please?
What is the shutter speed of it I rolled 35m on 127 rolls
I have one but one of the silver pins just below the lens is missing and the stand is also missing. Is there a place to buy the parts? Also, is it worth some $$$?
I haven’t found a place for parts for these old cameras. Some of my Kodak bellows cameras are missing the little pins too. It doesn’t affect the function though. Typically they run between $20 and $50, but if you have a colored one they can be worth $100 to $200 depending on what shape that it’s in. Thanks for watching!
@@LittleKodaks Thank you!
Amazing little camera! Do you think a 35mm cartridge would fit in the chamber? Great video 👍
You could, but it would be swimming in there. The 127 film is wider. You can always get new film rolled on 127 spools to shoot with. You’ll end up with better results this way. Thanks for watching!
@@LittleKodaks I believe film photography project has a video on their Channel and how to put 35 mm 127 camera. If the like the sprocket hole look it might be worth trying
Small pedantic note: the 30s is not “early 1900s.” The 30s is early-to-mid *20th century.* Even 1907 isn’t early 1900s. Early 1900s would be 1900-1904, maybe 05.
Giving the full number implies a decade, for example: me, born in 2007: I was not born in the early 2000s, I was born in the late 2000s. Early 21st century.
any idea of the shutter speed(s) on this guy?
So it's not listed in any Kodak literature that I have, but if I had to guess it's somewhere between 1/25th and 1/50th of a second. The little wheel that adjusts the aperture is your adjustment. 1 through 4. It really says what your subject is, how far away they are, and how bright is the light determines the aperture setting. There's a 32 page manual that came with it all about how to take pictures and your settings.
