Kodak Brownie Six-20, a capable box camera

The Kodak Brownie Six-20 is a box camera that unlike most box cameras has some more settings.

There is only one shutter speed (I)nstant + (B)ulb, like most of the box cameras, but also has a lever to select apertures f11,16 and 22 and another lever to select subject distances; this lever actually puts a small lens over the camera's main lens.

The camera uses only 620 film. 620 film is 120 film rolled in slimmer 620 reels.
I used an 120 film that had its reel edges trimmed off  to a smaller diameter with a nail cutter. The take up spool though needs to be a genuine 620 spool for the film to advance.

I used an 160 Kodak Portra film. The format of the film is 6x9cm. Labs don't have such a big mask to scan the film so I rephotographed the negatives. Here are the results:

Wreck. Main lens, shutter dial at I, f16

 Boat detail. Group add-on lens, shutter dial at I, f16

 Swan. Portrait attachement lens, shutter dial at I, f22

 Girl. Portrait add-on lens, shutter dial at I, f11

 Square scene. Two exposures, main lens, shutter dial at I, f16

 Shop arcade. Main lens, shutter dial at B (3 seconds I guess) and f11

Some more from the Nikon Zoom 500AF

Some more samples from the Nikon Zoom 500 AF. The camera is not very big for a zoom film camera. It is fully automatic with small apertures so needs good light.

 

 There are some opptions for the flash (Auto, anti-red eye, forced on and off) a self timer and a landscape setting.

 I used a cheap film that expired in 2004

Some more from the Olympus AF 51

Some more pictures from the Olympus AF 51. The camera is simple with a 28mm lens, and single aperture at f8. The flash fires automatically and there is a self timer button. Overall a simple point'n'shoot camera.

The camera takes good pictures in adequate light. By tapping a finger on the sensor the flash is forced to light up.

Here are some more samples from the first film

Nikon Zoom 310Af, a good Point and Shoot

The Nikon Zoom 310Af is a small zoom compact camera. The lens is zoomed from 35 to 70mm. Aperture is not mentioned on the camera but it is not very wide, so the camera needs rather good light.

There is only a center point autofocus, there is no autofocus lock as a half press of the shutter takes a picture.

I used a Fuji 200 film and took some pictures
