Old Film Cameras
-
I own a few old film cameras. Like many of the items that were manufactured during the Victorian era, cameras from the early 20th century hold a fascination for me.
I just added another really elegant one to my collection. It is a Voigtländer Avus 9 x 12 which was made around 1914.
The Voigtländer company was formed in Austria in 1756, making it the oldest name in cameras. In 1840 it produced the world’s fastest lens, later the first zoom lens, and then the first compact 35 mm camera with a built in electronic flash.
