I got some interesting *old* camera gear given to me today; a camera and a flash! Have a look: http://www.robertstech.com/temp/cam1.jpg http://www.robertstech.com/temp/flash1.jpg
Very cool stuff - respooling 120 to 620 is no problem, and if you have a 620 spool for the take up reel you can usually get away with just cutting down a 120 roll as the source roll.
I'm pretty sure I can come up with another 620 spool. I'm going to have to give this baby a try. I just found a virtually identical camera on eBay and that sold for $6.50! I can't even imagine going to the trouble of listing it for that kind of price. Bet I can do some really "Theriaultean" photography with mine :)
I also found an identical Kodak flash, *with* the box and manual just like what I have... and it hasn't attracted any bids at all. (I can't imagine why these *valuable* collector's items aren't selling <g>)
PS: Anyone else notice that the "PLENAX" name on the front of the camera looks a lot like the typeface used for the "Pentax" logo?
