My Grandfather bought this camera back in the 1950’s. I found it while over at my parents house, and my mom wanted me to take some shots of it. Everything still looks like it works on the old thing. Even the bellows(pop-out part) is completely intact! Sometime soon i’ll try to get some film for it and see what she can do!

The Federal Reserve building (est. 1901 as Union Trust Bank) in downtown Providence, RI. Captured using a antique German AGFA Clack camera using black and white film and crossprocessed using dr5 . (c) Paul Lavallee 2007 /
Imagine the sunrises, sunsets, storms, and sunny days this water tower has seen in all its years. This day was not a particuarly memorable day in its history, but it will be remembered it as it appeared through the lens of an antique camera and now captured forever in this digital medium. The Clack produces only 8 negatives on a roll of 120 film. This forces the photographer to slow down and carefully compose each shot. This slowing down of time is exactly what is being portrayed in this photograph. The colors and clouds bleed into the background, highlighting how little has changed in this scene over time. Created using a 1950’s AGFA Clack camera with 4 year expired Fuji Velvia RVP120 (ISO 50) slide film cross processed with C-41. No digital manipulation necessary!

“Blue Couch Green Wall” by Paul Lavallee has been published in a magazine, exhibited in art galleries, and described by The Providence Journal as an “electric color study”.

This structure was initially constructed in 1929 as a Masonic temple, but it was never completed and it remained an eyesore to the skyline of Providence, RI for almost 80 years. It has since been restored as the Renaissance Providence Hotel. Holga image using 20 year expired AGFA film. No digital manipulation. (c) Paul Lavallee 2007 /
Bronica 67(back 66)/ Agfapan 100
Dilapidated barn in western Cranston, RI. Its doubt that an actual witch lives here, but the roofline resembles a witches hat. dr5 cross processing enhances old, wooden buildings. The camera’s 6×9 aspect ratio emphasizes the height of the imposing structure. It almost seems as if it will crumble down on top of you from this angle. Created using an antique AGFA Clack camera with Efke R50 black & white film cross processed with dr5 . No digital manipulation. (c) Paul Lavallee 2007 /

The Isolette is an inexpensive post-war German folding medium format camera built between 1951 and 1954. It featured scale focusing and a halfway decent Agna 85mm f/4.5 lens. It’s pictured here with the Alcron Master bakelite flash unit. The Alcron folds up into a nice compact unit. The Isolette series of cameras had a long history. The first Isolette was produced in 1938 and the last Super Isolette (with coupled rangefinder) was made between 1954-1960. The sixties brought the demise of the medium format rangefinder and the introduction of compact 35mm rangefinders and SLRs. This is one of my vintage camera’s. They make such nice subjects.
