This must have been an expensive camera in the 30s! German shutter and lens + combined lens coupled rangefinder and viewfinder, and a frame counter. Really sweet to see it working so well still.
Wow, very innovative with a coupled rangefinder and ahead of its time in design. Not seen one before. I think shooting at 100ASA helped with that Kentmere 400. I wasn’t that impressed with it when I shot it. HP5 still better 👍📸
@@conrad4094 My cameras would take 120. But I have to transfer the film to the 620 spool. There are places to have my cameras modified to change the camera to take 120 spools. The in 120 spools have a smaller hole in the ends. Thank you for answering. Enjoy using the camera.

Interesting. Looks alot like my two Kodak Tourists 6x9 cameras. 620 film. What size does this camera take?
These take normal 120 film. I have the version with the lesser quality Ross lens myself
