World Photography Day 19/08/2021

World Photography Day 19/08/2021
For World Photo Day I can contribute a rarity I own a Kodak Brownie No.2
The first 120 roll film camera from Kodak in 1901. 120 roll film is the most successful roll film format and has now been produced for over 100 years! Kodak discontinued the production of 120 roll film cameras in the mid-1930s.
A homage to the beginnings of photography

Deborah Lundbech, Buelipix, Jean-luc Drouin, Alain P and 54 other people have particularly liked this photo

Ich habe einen davon – mein Vater hatte ihn mit in den Krieg genommen und er hat ein paar wundervolle Fotos von der Wüste und seinen Männern gemacht. Die ägyptische Bilderserie war auch großartig.

Wow - so happy to see a Brownie camera here for World Photography Day! I love those crazy old cameras. There's something about taking a photo without a lens that gives photos from those cameras a special feel.

Have you ever used it? Where did you get it? I imagine there's a story there somewhere.

Great lighting to get the full camera to show here. Photographing a box isn't as easy as it might seem - is that second nature to you, or did you learn something taking this photo?

[Just noticed the inset photo with the tag that it is a Canadian version! That must be even more rare.]
