Default Re: Vintage film cameras

Practice makes perfect! People say if you get one keeper off a roll it's average - seems a bit pessimistic but you could look at it that way.

Three Agfa Super Silettes turned up last night. A guy on the rangefinder forum wants a hand with an Ambi Silette (which is much more sophisticated, now I've finally googled it) but he bought one Super after another in the hope of getting a working one. They're all basically okay, they all have sticky shutters and useless timers, but a few spots on the glass aside they're good. Nice feeling camera, VF is big and the RF is bright on all of them.
