Kodak Starflash, more from the 127 film

Some more samples

Kodak Starflash with 127 film

This is the flash version of the 127 Kodak cameras. They all have the same lower body with a normal to wide plastic lens that is adequately sharp. The Starflash has a large disk on the upper side that takes flash bulbs.
I loaded some film in the Starflash and went out. The camera needs good light. It has a single shutter speed and two apertures, one for bright sunny day (marked Color film) and one for hazy days (marked B/W film)

Here are some samples

Kodak Star 127 cameras

I have acquired some Kodak 127 cameras from the Star series. The Starflex, the Starflash and the Starlet.
They use the same film box and lens while the top is different. The Dakon lens is a plastic, rather wide angle lens, a 35mm focal length equivalent, with two simple apertures, one around f11 and one around f16.
There is only one shutter speed, around 1/50th sec.

The Starflash has a large reflective disk that takes a flash lamp,
the Starflex has a waist level viewfinder that makes it look like a Twin Lens Reflex,
and the Starlet is a small point and shoot cameras.

The cameras are very simple, plastic made and consequently very cheap at their time but have a design that make them look like more capable and expensive cameras.
