Using the interchangeable lenses on the Argus, made using
interchangeable lenses on Kodak Retina IIc and IIIc cameras look
simple. Well that's not exactly true changing lenses on the Retinas was
a relative snap, using them was something of a PITA. Changeing lenses on
the Argus was a major PITA, using them was a somewhat smalle3r PITA.

I think they made three lenses for it.
Mine was made of bakelight and was black with chrome and faux leather trim. It
looked just like this:

The C3 has slightly better optical qualities, and is a little sturdier, without
weighing much more.
