The Brick
A pretty worn out example of the Argus C3. It even smells funny. Didn't have to do a thing to it. Shutter speeds were off pretty bad, so I penciled in marks to show where they are supposed to be. The view finder is cloudy and dirty. The rangefinder seems to be calibrated. A great find for $5. The 50mm F/3.5 lens is a winner.
Two things you've gotta learn... keep your fingers away from the shutter set knob while shooting (ruined a few that way) and learn to "wind right after shooting" to avoid double exposure.
