Bencini Comet, out in the street.

I rolled a 135 film into a 127 spool with the original backing paper and put it in the Bencini Comet. I have placed two horizontal flaps in the camera's film frame. I also put some tape in the viewfinder. This way the field of view of the 55mm standard lens gets limited and becomes a small telephoto.

I took the camera out in the streets.  The f11 aperture of the camera needs good light for a 100/200 ASA film.
The film did not lay flat but this time the pictures had a smaller out of focus section.

I pressed the shutter twice in this one

 I pressed some times the shutter here too...

Bencini Comet 2nd roll

This time I loaded a Kodacolor 200 ASA film and was exposed fine, but I did mistake the frame markings that resulted in many overlapped pictures. The automatic lab scanner got confused so I joined some pics together. I also put some carton mask in the film frame to support the film flat but I didn't do a good job there either; the film was still not flat. Finaly the film got stuck but only after taking the last picture.

Bencini Comet 1st roll

First try with an expired Agfa 35mm film rolled into a 127 spool with backing paper from a 120 film. unfortunately I had marked the paper wrongly so I got many overlapping images. As the 35mm film is narrower than the 127 one the film did not stand flat on the film plane, so images on the center got blurred.
