I have come across another interesting vintage camera...a Brownie Hawkeye 620 camera. Internet searches tell me I can run 120 film through it without having to reload 120 film onto 620 reels, as long as I use a 620 take-up reel. I say COOL!!!
Today, I took it apart, cleaned the lens elements and lubed the simple shutter. The shutter seems to work and it has a Bulb setting.
I am hoping to produce a series of figure studies with it and another series with the refurbished Polaroid from my previous post. I will post something when it materializes. Happy New Year...and here's to new old equipment.
Now, I have to search for a new figure model or two.
