Kodak Folding Camera by Geoff Dodd

Kodak Folding Camera by

Minolta x700,
Lens – not sure,
other settings – not sure,
Efke 100

I was in one of the better used camera shops here in Ottawa. The shop owner suggested I try out the Minolta Rokkor lens on my camera. The Minolta camera body was still rather chilled so the battery wasn’t working completely so I couldn’t get a reading to set the camera. Luckily it worked. I didn’t buy the lens but judging by the quality of the shot, I’ve got my eye on it. The shop is located on Bank St here in Ottawa, ON, Canada.

    Nice ! I’m starting to truly like these vintage models! I’ll be hunting them down at garage sales and flea markets this summer for sure

  • They truly are things of beauty. A word of warning, though, be prepared for technical heartache!!
