Colin Dullaghan's photos with the keyword: Kodak

I have a policy against buying cameras just to look at, and indeed I made good on my promise to actually shoot pictures with this one. But it's still awfully fun to look at.

I was determined to shoot with a Kodak No. 3A Autographic camera I found in an antique shop. It was in pretty rough condition, and I'm not sure the seller even knew how to open it! But, I figured, a dark cloth wrapped around the bellows should minimize the many light leaks, stopping the lens way down should cut down on my having to guess about focus too much, and some foam-rubber spacers should let me spool a roll of 120 film across the (enormous) film gate. I was right! Next experiment may be 4x5 ortho film -- I won't even have to cut it down; the back of this camera is *that* big.
