Most of the junque at the thrift shop today was either terminal or overpriced. I'll let it sit until they get tired of looking at it!

I found this little guy way back in the showcase, it works!

Pony 135 Production: 1950-1954 Film format: 135, 24x35mm frames Shutter: Kodak Flash 200 1/25 - 1/200 (M sync only) Lens: Kodak Anaston 51mm f/4.5 - f/22

PONY 135

Can't lose for 3 bucks!

You will soon lose - when Kodak stops manufacturing film.

It's full frame 35mm. It is actually possible to get a big picture.

Keep in mind the digital point and shoots use tiny sensors and the popular DSLRs use APC format, all smaller than 35mm frame size.

I just got it because it's part of history.

Most kids these days pay 3 dollars for an app to replicate the images you get from that!

I’ve got one of those, complete with leather case - so it is actually worth $3.

First thing I bought with my first paycheck (about 11 yrs old) was a Kodak Brownie - later I moved up to a Minolta. Think my ex-spouse pawned them all.

Retired to a terrific wild-life area - you have motivated me to buy a classic camera. If I can remember the F-stops & speeds. Have missed some golden opportunities on the wing and in the water.

thx

I was about 8 years old when this camera was made.

Someone really took care of it, it's pristine.

I wish I was!

Boy, quality in manufacturing back then sure shows now.

I have a little Kodak kids box camera somewhere.

I usually get about 4 years use out of a digital camera and they aren’t worth repairing.

You are so right.

There is a part of me that wishes it was still 1958.
