Vintage Cameras

Vintage Camera 1.jpg

I bought both of these sweet looking cameras on E-bay for only $20. Yes, I'm a nerd. But they are awesome. They smell old and need a little TLC, but they are mine. (This is the E-bay photo).
I'll use them mainly for decoration, but I might venture out and try to take a picture or two with them. The shutter and aperture work just fine. The thing I'm worried about is the light-tight condition of the accordion (age tends to damages stuff like that). But it will be kind of cool to see some pictures taken with an old school camera.
Also, due to the fact that they no longer make film for these guys, I'll have to use photo paper, or get creative.
