Some great shots there Johnny, got a feel to them that you wouldn't get wit digital. What scanner are you using?

Canon Canoscan 650U (or maybe 630U, can't remember), It's not that bad I guess, I could really do with cleaning the glass properly but the case is glued together so not very easy. It'll manage 1200dpi but not on 6x6 due to memory, as the driver is legacy so has its problems. I don't use it that much, just scans to put up on Flickr or FB, if the quality isn't 100% then I'm not overly worried. Fancied an Epson like yours but they're a bit much!

Blimey they don't come up often. Not sure of the value, mine has a rangefinder and a few other features so would be a bit more, I guess it would go for a similar price to an Ikonta. I can't make out any of the lens etc. details but there is info on camera wiki etc. about them. You see the various windows - you can shoot 6x6 or 6x4.5 but you need the other mask - it has the 6x6 mask in it already. The masks have the fine steel rollers attached to them that the film runs on, so you really need the right one to be able to change them over. Mine have been lost over the intervening 80 years, have been looking on ebay etc. for replacements but the odds are zero. Out of the camera it's just a plate with little rollers so doesn't look much like a camera part so they'll have been thrown out at some point. Glad I've got one anyway as it'd be unusable without, the film plane wouldn't sit right.

The one I am bidding on is basically a point and shoot. No rangefinder but I like the look of it so will take a shot. A little rough around the edges.

If you are interested, this is the one I have bid on:

Yep that's the one, they're pretty rare in any form so I'd bag it if I were you.

Those are probably an hour down the road, not sure if much is going to be worth saving though.

Will keep an eye on it. Looks pretty cool. Some of the cameras I have don't come up very often and when they do they tend to be quite a lot more than I paid.

In the words of Mr. Punch, that's the way to do it!

It's like the Yashica 72e I have. Paid less than a tenner I think and they often come up around £30-£50. Only paid £3 odd for my Voigtlander Brillant. Just found this:

I have the camera but not the plates that go with it. Paid £2 for the camera.

I'm trying to keep away from all temptation. I don't know how you guys do it.
I managed to take a zoom apart this afternoon and clean the innards. Couldn't believe how easy it was. Not even a screw to undo.
